The Magic Circle Christmas Show

The Magic Circle Christmas Show is our much-loved festive celebration of magic. A cherished annual tradition that sells out every year, it begins with close-up magic and surprises throughout our building, followed by a spectacular world-class theatre show.

Show Times

Afternoon Performance: Doors open at 13:00, show starts at 14:00. The show will finish at approximately 16.15-16.30.
Evening Performance: Doors open at 18:00, show starts at 19:00. The show will finish at approximately 21.15-21.30.

We recommend arriving when the doors open so you can explore the museum and enjoy close-up magic before the show begins. Please note that there’s no opportunity to visit the museum after the performance.

Age Guidelines

The Magic Circle Christmas Show is perfect for families and children aged 8 and above.

For younger guests, we recommend booking seats in the stalls as the balcony rail may obstruct their view.
All guests must have their own ticket and be able to sit unaided.
Babes in arms are not permitted.
Children under 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Please be aware that some effects may be a little scary for very young children.
