What Is Bristol Magic Theatre?

We’re a small, independent venue built for one thing: live close-up magic. No big stage, no rows of seats—just a single table, some great people, and a show that happens right in front of you.

Expect mind reading, clever tricks, and a bit of surreal comedy, all in a chilled, plant-filled space. Bring your own drink, settle in, and enjoy the kind of night you won’t find anywhere else in Bristol.

What to Expect on the Night?

Up-Close & Personal

Time to Breathe

FAQ

Yes – the show is suitable for ages 10 and up. There’s no swearing or inappropriate content. That said, the show is aimed at adults, and our typical audience is made up of adults and couples. Children are welcome as long as they’re comfortable sitting through a full-length theatre performance.

The theatre is located in the Clifton area of Bristol, on Alma Vale Road. It’s easy to reach by car or by train. The nearest station is Clifton Down – just a short walk away. Street parking is available on nearby roads.

We usually welcome couples and small groups of friends. While we occasionally accept larger group bookings, we don’t host stag or hen parties. Large groups can sometimes disrupt the unique atmosphere of the show, which is designed to be intimate and immersive for everyone.

Yes – it’s a BYO (Bring Your Own) drinks event. You’re welcome to bring along your favourite drinks to enjoy during the show.

Absolutely. We make sure everyone feels comfortable. Audience interaction happens naturally and is always respectful – no one is ever put on the spot or forced to take part. If you’d prefer to just sit back and enjoy, that’s completely fine.

You can hire the magician for private events – just get in touch to discuss details. However, the venue itself is not available for hire.
