👀 The real MAGiCon begins Thursday night…

Before the lectures, before the stage show, before the weekend officially kicks off... magicians gather at The Portal HQ for The Family Room: Comedy Magic Night.

Hosted by Dan Harlan, this relaxed opening-night event is part comedy show, part magic jam, and part unofficial MAGiCon kickoff party.

Doors open at 7:00 PM for cocktails, conversation, and strolling magic.

At 8:00 PM, the show begins... an evening of comedy magic where anything can happen and the laughter comes easy.

Then stick around… because the venue stays open until 11:00 PM for the afterparty.

If you're getting into town Thursday, this is where you want to be.

Several MAGiCon performers will be there hanging out too 👀

🎟 Tickets: $20
