The convention is held in Blackpool in the north of the United Kingdom. Blackpool is a seaside resort on the Irish Sea coast of England and is known for its rugged amusements and tourist attractions such as the Blackpool Tower. Specifically, the convention is held at the Blackpool Winter Gardens, an impressive building built in the late 1800s that ...
Blackpool isn’t perfectly located for easy travel, but it’s certainly not too difficult to get there. As the majority of attendees are from the UK, many people simply drive there. Parking isn’t ideal in Blackpool because many of the hotels are small and only have one or two parking spaces, so lots of people sneakily park on residential streets just...
In short: grim. Blackpool is typically cold and windy in Februaryand for the most part, tourism is closed at this part of the year. Due to the cold winds from the Irish sea, you’ll definitely be cold while walking around the town (such as to your hotel and the Winter Gardens). Typically the temperature is in the single figures (2-10 degrees Celsius...
The exact number of people who attend the convention is not published by the Blackpool Magic Convention, but it is estimated that around 4,000 to 5,000 magicians attend.
Like all magic conventions, it is important that you register ahead of time. Magic conventions often sell out and so turning up on the day means that you cannot be guaranteed a ticket. And as Blackpool Magic Convention allows you to choose your gala show seats, booking early allows you to get a good seat.

Registration tends to open on Friday morning. For many people, the Sunday ...

In fact, we can separate them into three categories: B&Bs, old school Blackpool, and chain hotels: A lot of people stay in bed and breakfasts (B&B) which are typically small family run affairs. You’ll get a bed, a tiny bathroom, and a goold ...
Yes, it’s called The Ruskin. It’s halfway between a B&B and a hotel and is the hotel that many people try to stay at. In the evenings, it’s lively and absolutely packed with magicians. You just have to spend ten minutes at the magic convention and you’ll be asked several times if “you’re going to The Ruskin tonight” and the default answer is always...
To many people, the Blackpool Magic Convention is all about the dealers room. There are typically about 150 magic shopsand dealers exhibiting, ranging from creators who have released their first trick, and the world’s largest magic stores like Vanishing Inc. who have a massive walk-in dealers stand. The dealers room is open for the duration of the ...
No, not even close. The schedule is so packed that you are forced to pick and choose between events. As the schedule is typically published ahead of time (like most magic conventions), you’ll be able to make your own schedule before you even attend. We recommend making time for meals, as well as seeing an equal mix of magic lecturesand magic shows ...
