Maho Magic Bar

Maho Magic Bar is a celebration of Japanese culture, contemporary and traditional, and an invitation for audiences to suspend reality and be eclipsed by the wonders of magic. 

Set in a bespoke touring pop-up bar, all neon fun on the outside and cool sophistication on the inside, master close-up magicians (direct from Japan!) visit each table to perform an intimate show for each group.

This experience merges immersive entertainment, the art of illusion and the ambience of a high-end cocktail bar to create a unique experience that is part performance, part bar and part unique destination.

Maho Magic Bar premiered at The Garden of Unearthly Delights in Adelaide for the 2020 summer.

Maho Magic Bar has since delighted audiences in Newcastle, the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Port Douglas, Sydney, Darwin and Melbourne.
