The 15th Shanghai International Magic Festival

The 15th Shanghai International Magic Festival adopts the theme of “Magic and Urban Life.” Focusing on close-up magic, it gathers top close-up masters from around the world to match their skills on the same stage, and spans five major sections: performances, competitions, academic exchanges, charity events, and magic prop exhibitions. As an important part of the CSIAF Professional Sessions, aligned with international practice, the festival upholds world-class planning and well-regulated operations at its core. With an upgraded competition, the addition of a interdisciplinary judging panel, and a citywide collaborative model, it promotes in-depth exchange and innovative development between Chinese and international magic arts, continuing to consolidate Shanghai’s exemplary status as a leading center for magic arts in Asia.
