The much-anticipated Children's Magic Festival, presented by the world-renowned College of Magic, is set to enchant families with an unforgettable holiday experience this April. 

As the only institution of its kind in the world, the College of Magic has been captivating audiences with its theatrical magic performances and life-skills education since 1980. 

This year, the festival promises three days of spellbinding fun, taking visitors deep into the heart of the jungle—magic style!

From April 3rd to April 5th, 2025, families are invited to explore a world where imagination reigns supreme. The Children’s Magic Festival is designed for children aged 3-8 years old and is the perfect opportunity for parents and kids to enjoy an action-packed day of magic, fun, and adventure.

The Children’s Magic Festival is a 75-minute journey filled with thrills and magical wonders. It kicks off with a 40-minute live magic show, featuring awe-inspiring tricks that will leave both young and old alike spellbound. 

After the show, guests can embark on a self-guided tour of the College’s renowned magic mansion, where they can explore a variety of magical performances, play whimsical carnival games, and even snap an Impossible Photo.

“This festival is one of our most beloved events, creating a space where young minds can be amazed, entertained, and inspired by the magic around them. 

“This year's jungle theme promises even more excitement, as our talented young magicians bring the wild to life on stage!” said Chad Findlay, Creative Director of the College of Magic.

The magic truly comes alive with the event’s immersive Into the Jungle theme. Families are encouraged to dress in their finest jungle-inspired attire as they wander through this enchanting world. 

Expect to see not only the spellbinding magic show but also walk-around entertainers, including puppeteers, clowns, and jugglers, creating a true carnival atmosphere.

Festival-goers will also have the chance to learn their very own magical stunt, adding a personal touch to their experience. And for those seeking a bit of friendly competition, the Carnival of Wonders is filled with magical games, sure to bring out everyone’s inner adventurer.

With four performances daily—at 10am, 11am, 12pm, and 2pm—there's plenty of opportunity to catch the magic. But act fast! Tickets are limited, and this event sells out quickly. 

Tickets are available for purchase on Quicket.
