About
What the huh? First there was a bunny and then, huh? Now this chicken is reading my mind, huh? Where did my date go, huh? I’m laughing my Ace off. Huh, my date is back. Amsterdam Magic Show, Things that make you go huh? Magic…for some it’s just a word…for us it’s a way of life. Take your friends, your loved ones, or yourself on our magical ride and forget the world outside (for one crazy night). We are an ensemble of magicians and illusionists. But each show is different and unique, since we invite the best inter-national magic and comedy acts to perform with us in our roaring 20’s era theater. You will be welcomed at the door with a free welcome glass of Prosecco. Make your way to your seat and relax, but not too much... mind-bending close-up magic will be performed inches from your eyes as you sip Prosecco in your seat. Time will fly by until the host announces - it's Showtime! In a 2 hour stage show, 5 or 6 of Europe's premiere magicians will take the stage to amaze, entertain and charm you. Our residents include European and word magic champions, TV magicians and we regularly book international star stage magicians as guests. Some of magic's biggest stars have appeared on our stage. After the show... the show goes on! We will supply tunes, get a drink at the bar and stay for our magical after-party. The magicians will kick back with you and share some of their most cutting edge new magic - hush-hush, after-hours and strictly off the record. So step into our magical world of ‘Huh’ and have an unforgettable evening of entertainment. It’s Amsterdam Magic Showtime!

The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Centrum
Amsterdam’s buzzing hub, with its sprawling network of tram rails and a seemingly constant flow of tourists and commuters, yields convenient access to some of the best sightseeing, shopping, and street life in Europe. Closest at hand are the Royal Palace, the quaint shops of Haalremmerdijk, the pedestrianized zones Kalverstraat and Dam Square with popular neighborhoods such as the Red Light District, and the Canal Ring hardly more than a moment’s stroll away. With the well-connected Centraal Station as Centrum’s base, it's easy to travel farther afield via one of the city’s iconic trams.

Went together with my husband and we had an amazing evening. The venue is great, it is in the small theater room of Boom Chicago, which makes it very intimate and with a great vibe. The magicians were incredibly talented, we truly had a lot of moments where the both of us went 'Huh?!'. What I had not expected, was the amount of humor. I literally cried from laughing several times throughout the night. Already tipped several friends about it and will definitely return. Highly recommended.

Went here as part of a bachelor party after having been recommended it by a friend. Completely blew us away!, I've seen magic before on my many trips to Vegas but never delivered with such passion. They really kept the crowd gasping for more. Was unsure as to how well it would work with a group if 13 Irish guys ( I checked that it was in English before buying tickets) but all my doubts "vanished" when an Irish magician took the stage!
Would certainly recommend this to anyone living in or visiing Amsterdam

Yes there is more to Amsterdam than the Red Light District and Coffee shops. This is an alternative mind blowing experience which won't land you in trouble. A unique experience with great entertainment and laughs. Great value for money and you will be guaranteed to leave bedazzled!

Cozy show with four magicians. They did a couple of small tricks. Some were obvious but the highlight was letting a table fly. I had a great time.

Amsterdam magic show is beyond imagination! I visited it 2nd of April, on my birthday, and decided that it is also a great occasion to make a proposal to my beloved girlfriend Jeny, whom I've been together with for a while. I contacted the Magicians upfront and they were super responsive and supportive to make the magic happen on the night. I still remember the moment I was called on stage to show coins, and one of them turned into a my proposal ring, once my girflriend came by! Magic show itself is 2 hours of pure entertainment, Aha! moments and comedy that will not leave you sitting still. Expect card tricks, historical tricks, good portion of humor and lovely interactions with audience (including crazy level mind reading) to blow you away. To me it was a great show and to anyone else it will be one too! An extra tip: once you are there, make sure to take a selfie with one of the magicians, as you can get some free drinks or extra tickets to the show. Since every show also features guest magicians, every show is unique!

A friend who lives in Amsterdam recommended this and I ‘m glad he did. Venue is Boom Chicago which is an effortlessly cool bar in its own right. The magicians mingled with the people in the bar before the show and demonstrated some impressive close-up magic. The show itself was a good two hours with seven magicians (the MC is a pretty impressive magician in his own right) and the ticket price gets you a drink as well.
Well worth it

Just brilliant!! Absolutely ecstatic there was an extra show while we were there, that in itself made it magical before we even arrived! Fabulous close-up magic, great stage magic, loved the variety of different styles brought to the stage by a variety of excellent performers, the comedy was ace too, even funnier when we realised there were kids in the audience who would be rather more educated by the end of the show than they were before it started!! Definitely a night we will both remember always. Outstanding! Thank you again all! 😘😘😘 xx

Is any food available at the show? Many thanks.
Written 28 October 2016
Hi Maria,
We have served food before and we may again... but at the moment there is no food.
We can recommend restaurant Matahari which is 2 minutes walk from the theater. If you tell them you are from the show they may give you an extra little something!!
Written 29 October 2016
Hi there, and thanks for your interest in the show!
In November we have a 3 shows actually, the Halloween special on 1 Novemer and the Amsterdam Mentalism Show will run twice on 15 November... at 19:00 and 21:15
When are you visiting Amsterdam?
Written 21 October 2016
Hi Maria,
Thanks for the interest in our show and for the question! In short, yes under-18s are allowed and welcome.
But a few things to consider...
- The show is not targeted to children, so young kids may not be kept engaged throughout
- It starts at 20:00 and ends at 22:30 in the center of town so may be too late for some children
- Occasionally (e.g. for Hallowe'en) we may have some spooky or scary acts
In your case you told me by email that your child is 14 and I think that should be fine. We look forward to seeing you!
