From Vancouver 24hrs:

One such trouper is the city’s own Travis Bernhardt — a young, lauded magician frequently awarded “Best of the Fringe” and “Favourite Picks” honours at festivals across the country. Wickedly clever and deceivingly nonchalant, Bernhardt’s shows often involve intricate, hour-long tricks within tricks. 

This year, he’s upping the stakes.

From James Alan:

After months of preparation, Magic & Martini is coming to Toronto tonight! We will be at SpiritHouse in the heart of Downtown Toronto near Queen & Spadina.

This new show, developed in collaboration with Grand Spirits, pairs some incredible magic, seen intimately and up close, with finely crafted cocktails (and some wonderful food options as well.) It's a perfect evening out on the weekend. We hope you can join us. You can see the show on weekends at two locations September through November:

Beginning Saturday, September 3

Doors open at 6:30 for you to enjoy a bite and some incredible cocktails before the show begins at 7:30.

Magic & Martini is strictly a 19+ event, dress code in effect.

Montreal: 44th Magic Collectors Weekend

From Magicana:

Magicana is delighted to bring the MCW to Montreal in May 2017. We will be staging this conference to coincide with the opening of the major magic exhibition, drawn from the Allan Slaight Collection of magic posters and Houdiniana, at the McCord Museum.

In fact, a large part of the conference will take place at the McCord Museum (which is located in the heart of downtown Montreal) where delegates will enjoy private tours of the exhibition and behind-the-scenes tours by curators and staff of the museum. The museum has an exquisite exhibition in the works, and MCW delegates will be the first to experience it!

The balance of the conference will be held at our convention hotel, the Delta Montreal which is, literally, around the corner from the McCord. And, as we have had in the past, there will be a broad range of speakers.

But space is limited! This event is restricted by the meeting capacity at the McCord, so we only have 125 places available. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.
