The Busan International Magic Festival, now in its 20th year, will kick off with a special performance titled “Magic Fantasia,” taking place on April 12 and 13 at the Small Theater of Busan Citizens Hall.

Organized by Busan City and the Busan International Magic Festival Organizing Committee, the event promises a diverse and engaging lineup of magic performances.

“Magic Fantasia” will feature a variety of magic genres designed for audiences of all ages, particularly families.

The show includes circus-style fire performances from an Indian magician in the “Circus Magic” segment, elegant sleight of hand in “Classic Magic,” visually striking illusions in the “LED Fantasy” section, and a blend of movement and magic in “Magic Harmony.”

The festival’s slogan this year is “Time Crossing Over Magic,” reflecting a blend of traditional and cutting-edge magical artistry. This theme aims to highlight both nostalgia and innovation in performance, enhancing the audience experience.

Tickets are available online through YES24, Naver, Interpark, and PlayFinder. On-site ticket purchases will also be possible during the event.

Additional information can be found on the festival’s official website, www.hibimf.org, and through social media channels such as Instagram and Naver Blog.
