Be amazed as Melbourne becomes a magical hub this winter for 14 days only with special events, workshops, and live shows for everyone from child-friendly to adults only.

The Melbourne Magic Festival was created in 2008 by The Australian Institute of Magic with the two-fold aim of giving Melburnians the opportunity to see world-class performances of magic in a theatrical environment, and the chance for performers to create shows that express themselves as artists.
