Josh Staley - Up Late. Up Close

About
WINNER of the Director’s Choice Award – 2024 Melbourne Magic Festival
Stay up late and get up close with award-winning magician Josh Staley, one of Australia’s finest close-up illusionists. Experience world-class sleight of hand performed inches from your eyes in an intimate, purpose-built theatre. Every guest enjoys an interactive and unforgettable night of magic, mind games, and impossible illusions.
Josh has been officially selected to represent Australia at the World Championships of Magic (FISM) in Italy this July. These Melbourne Magic Festival shows are his final public performances before heading to the world stage — a rare chance to see world-class magic before it goes global.
Due to him having to leave the Festival earlier than planned for FISM rehearsals, some exceptional artists have been chosen to stand in for him on selected dates.
IMPORTANT UPDATE
On July 10, the show will be performed by award-winning LJ the Magician and feature great comedy as well as astonishing close up magic.
On July 11 & 12, the show will be performed by the incredible Chi Han Yeo — a sleight-of-hand specialist known for his theatrical style and playful charm. Expect intricate marvels delivered with a whimsical twist. Don’t miss this extraordinary artist in action.
