Saw the show last night and it was ok. First off they have an announcement that clearly says no audio or video recording, it does not say anything about no picture taking so I got scolded by the staff. Before the show someone from the back comes out and picks certain people who will be called on during the show. For Stuart McLeod, a very funny guy but a definitely scripted performance with the audience members he picks on. A staff member came out and talked to two people sitting behind us and we listened very closely as they were told that they would be chosen, the question they are going to be asked and what their response should be. Stuart throws two frisbees out to the audience and it's supposed to be random however, two kids were picked. One boy caught the frisbee and Stuart asked him to give it to the girl behind him which he did. Then Stuart asked her to pick a number between 25 and 100 and told her NOT to pick 67 but of course she did which went along with the number writing skit he did. Obviously it was not random but staged for the trick to work. Shin Lim, WOW!!! He had practiced long and hard to perfect his craft and he is amazing. Many tricks are easy to figure out as you can see how it comes to fruition. Tables are used through his act and most have a hidden area for him to grab things from underneath. Even though you can see his sleight of hand preparing to make the illusion happen, he is an amazing magician. Some tricks will leave you stunned and the audience members he picks I did not see them being prepped before the show so I believe they were unknown and saw the magic close up. Shin Lim is an amazing magician as I said and it's no wonder why he won AGT twice, FISM and is now in Vegas. He is a Vegas show worth going to and more than once, just a very cool experience. His wife is a part of the show, she does magic tricks as well which shows how talented she is as well as a trapeze ring act. She was really good and I only wish she would have been performed a little longer. Shin Lim had Mackenzie Sol who was in the top 24 of American Idol come out and sign some during his magic acts, Magic to Music. Mackenzie is a very good singer and it gelled well with the show. I would go see the show again as it was very entertaining. It started on time unlike most other Vegas shows and was an amazing 90 minute show worth seeing. I highly recommend this show. Yes you can figure out some of the magic being done if you watch closely, but the amount of prep and practice that Shin Lim has had to endure to perfect his craft, he is worth supporting. A very entertaining show! Go see Shin Lim and support him, he is one of the best shows I've seen recently.

Props to Shin Lim! What a great show! I was totally mind-blown the entire time and very entertained. Shin's show is located in the Palazzo Theatre. The theatre itself is located between the Grand Lux Cafe and the Starbucks. Check in was very easy. It was minimal walking and required a flight of stairs to get to your seats. Elevators were also available I believe. The theatre was at capacity for the 7:30pm show on a Sunday Night. It's a very nice stage set up and seats were comfortable for a 90 minute show. We sat near the back of the theatre. Our ticket pricing was $60-70 per ticket. As for the show itself, we had not seen any performances prior of Shin's, but friends and family who have watched the show said it was great. My expectations were exceeded after watching this entire performance. The storytelling of his journey to getting into Magic and achieving his goal of winning AGT twice was cool. The card tricks to start the show had me baffled and impressed. The visuals and performances were memorizing. The show is interactive and has audience participation. It's funny, it's mind boggling, it's entertaining and fun for all ages. I'm still questioning "how did he do that?" and it been days later. After watching, Limitless, I instantly became a fan of Shin Lim! I'm recommending this show to all my friends and family! Good times! ( ^_^)b

Can't say I am a big fan of card magic, but this show really surprised me! Our VIP section seats had amazing views. But the alcohol selections weren't as good though, they didn't serve Grey Goose. The show runs 90 minutes and no intermission. I have to say Shin Lim is a fantastic card magician. Some tricks were shockingly fun and mysterious! The interactions with audience were awesome. His wife is also a great performer! I can't say enough good things about this show and I think it's a great entertainment in Vegas!

Pre-Show stage

Shin Lim never fails to impress! Saw him when he was at the Mirage a few years ago and he just keeps making you wonder how the heck he did what he did. Just had to see him again. Great show!

Not worthy for higher price tickets l, recommend to get a lowest priced ticket. The stage is great, the host of other magician is great. But the show seems to be the TV shows happening again. Worst thing is that, the tools seem to be really old, and you can see the hidden holes or folding lines, very disturbing to a magic show. Also, the Shin Lim seems to be not good prepared at some of the tricks that the trick exposed. Good for first time magical show with lower price tickets. But not a well prepared show.

For this show, I recommend to park at Palazzo Parking Garage, quick access to get to the show. It there's an event occurring you have to pay for event parking regardless which is $30 even if you're a local and even if your purchased $200+ tickets for each person. Our seats got moved up by one of the hosts, which was nice, they offered us if we wanted to get closer. He's a good magician and there was a mentalist who was good too. But not so immersive with audience members like other shows. They only take people from the front row. And it seems like they chose these people way before the show started. I think it should be more immersive to where they choose someone from all different sections even middle and back not just a front stage row.. the lighting had technical difficulties for a while too. Not as an exciting show as I thought it would be!

This was the first magic show I've ever been to and it was a blast! Shin Lim has a funny sense of humor and he specialized in card magic (which is then projected on a big screen). The show is located at the Palazzo Theatre at the Venetian. I had a ton of fun and his tricks will keep you guessing! Would recommend!

I saw Shin Lim back on Thanksgiving week of 2025. Highly recommend checking him out if you ever come to Vegas. You can find him at the Venetian. His show runs for an hour and half. I got his tickets cheap from Klook. Surprisingly, we got a good view since it was more in the middle. I was more amazed at his tricks than at Penn & Teller. Both are great shows btw. There was another magician that performed when Shin Lim was off the stage and he was equally superb. I recommend either walking over if you're already staying on the Strip or taking a rideshare. Don't bother driving over here as that would take too much time. There isn't a bad view since there are jumbotrons, but if you want to participate then shoot for the rows closer to the stage.

Want I see a Vegas show? Want to see AGT's winner perform in front of your eyes? Super fast sleigh if hands tricks? Magic? Interactive with the show? Drinks? Snacks? Want a good time? Stop by! Sat at VIP 1, 4th row, it was a cool experience! Kids loved the magic performed. A lot of the tricks are with a deck of cards. Vs other shows where u see different acts. But it was good and this type of magic show didn't give u like anxiety like other performers in the past, like cutting someone in half, or anything triggering. This show was good! Check in was fast Theater at the Palazzo was clean and decent. Shin also has other performers Johnson to help narrate, and perform. Probably a one time thing for this show hence 4/5 but it was cool! I've been to other shows like cirque du Soleil where I went back to see the same show. Those are more like 5/5 to me. This one didn't disappoint! There's a small shop for you to buy a magic kit, shirts and other souvenirs.

Las Vegas has many different magic shows, and one of the popular ones is Shin Lim: Limitless, which is inside the Palazzo theater. I watched it over the weekend with a party of 9 and would say this was enjoyable for all different ages. From children to older adults, this was eye-catching, mind-blowing, and unique!! There is no videotaping of the show but I would still say it is fun to see and gives an awesome message to children. Never give up and follow your dream, even if you fail initially.

Watching Shin perform live is literally awe inspiring! I've followed him through AGT, Fool Us, and other television programming he's been on so on this trip back to Vegas, I knew it had to be him and not just another Cirque du Soleil show. His sleight of hand choreography is truly next level when you watch it live. He literally had me leaning in, fully engaged, trying to figure it out! I think this is certainly a show to watch! Plus, he currently features several special guests including the Clairvoyants who were super cute but also doing really cool mentalism, his wife Casey, and an American Idol competitor (Mackenzie Sol). Overall, I highly HIGHLY recommend this experience!

Linda B.

Wow. Determined to figure out how he pulled off his amazing magic tricks, we bought vip seats close to the stage. We had hypotheses - maybe plants in the audience. Watched audience members as they walked in lol. Carefully observed people he called on. We could see all kinds of details of the stage & had a clear unobstructed view of Shin but nope, not a clue! HE WAS INCREDIBLE!! Loved this show. Highly recommend!

This was our first time seeing a magic show, and we're so glad it was Shin Lim's Limitless--what an unforgettable experience! We had no idea what to expect, but we were in awe the entire time. Shin Lim doesn't just perform magic--he delivers a full-on theatrical experience with stunning visuals and even guest acts that elevate the entire show. He was incredibly interactive with the audience, and we even got to be part of one of his tricks, which made it all the more special. I'd 100% pay to see him again next time I'm in Vegas. If you're even slightly curious--go. It's worth every penny.

Amazing and fun show!! I highly recommend this show for anyone who loves great entertainment,…read moremagic, and card tricks. He is so fun to watch and he's pretty funny too. He has great showmanship and every second is entertaining watching him. All of his tricks were mind blowing and makes you wonder how he did it. The theater is really nice and you can get a great view from any angle. We were lucky enough to get the high top tables and awesome view. I do like how it is a smaller theater in order to see him close up. He does choose a good amount of people for his tricks and he's so funny interacting with them. Must see show!!

My husband and I made a last-minute decision to see a magician while we were in Vegas this past…read moreweekend, and Mat Franco's show quickly came up in my internet search. High reviews and a Groupon deal. It was a no-brainer. The seating at the venue felt similar to a comedy show. The seats in the back were behind high tables, and the seats in the front were arranged in several rows without anything in between. Just beware: if you purchase tickets on Groupon, you only select the section and can be placed all the way to the side, like we were. Nonetheless, Mat's show was so good that it was still enjoyable from a not-ideal angle. I don't want to spoil the magic, but I must say his show was so well-rounded. It had a variety of different tricks, and he puts a fresh spin on each one, so even if you think that's where the trick should end, Mat is always a couple of steps ahead. He also sprinkles comedy throughout, and a lot of it seems to be on the fly since it involves audience members. Mat even pulls on the heartstrings at times. I didn't even realize he had won America's Got Talent until some videos played from when he competed. I'm sure I watched him back then, but I'm glad I got to see him in person too! His show will not disappoint, and given that it was an hour and a half, I think the price we paid for the second row was well worth it. Also, after the show, I saw a guy offer money to get an autograph from Mat. So if that's what you're after, I think it's possible. No guarantees, of course.

A show well worth your Caesars tier reward, or even actual hard-earned cash…read more Paranormal is a show starring mentalist Frederic da Silva. It is located in the Horseshoe Casino at the Laugh Factory. This is on the 2nd floor near the poker room, which is on the side of the main casino closer to the Strip. However, the box office is a shared box office for all shows and is back along the main floor of the casino. Actually, it is on the slightly elevated level near hotel registration. If you need to redeem some sort of tier reward for free show tickets, you'll wanna go there first. You'll also want to give yourself plenty of time in case of issues that may arise so that you don't get in a little late like I did. Since we were a bit tardy, we kinda had to dig our way through curtains that had been closed already, then get help from an usher to find our seats. We ended up at one of the tables in the front-most part of general admission, and they weren't too bad aside from tall dudes semi-blocking in front of us. The premium section feels like a decent upgrade for out-of-pocket customers. I don't think we missed that much. Frederic was in the middle of some stuff with some volunteers from the audience on stage, which we saw most or all of the endings of. On that note, he kept having different people come up (mostly selected by frisbees or balls) throughout the 70-ish minute show to demonstrate that there's no way he has that many audience plants. He also states that he doesn't pre-arrange anything anyway. The show is comprised of quite a few mind-reading / prediction tricks, and a little sleight of hand in a so-called "intermission" (not a real break). Many of these effects are familiar to fans of magic/mentalism, but they still feel fresh since it's just plain cool to see them in person. Frederic himself also is charming, funny, off-the-cuff, and just an all-around good entertainer. His pacing is also great, with no real lulls. On top of that, the musical motifs are well-timed and not too obtrusive, and the sound volume and clarity are great. We didn't stay for the free meet-and-greet, but he was available for it tonight. Paranormal is simply a great show for fans of mentalism. It's lasted 13 years, reportedly, and that's gotta be because it's just a polished show that's appealing to all ages and audiences. Check it out if you have the chance!

This is definitely a general audience show without it being too toned down that it turns into a strictly children's show. I will say that at it's current location at the Strat, I'd suggest buying seats that are further away from the stage if you don't want the tricks spoiled for you. My husband and I were seated next to the stage (stage left) and unfortunately could see how many of the tricks were done because of how close our seats were to the performance. (Ex: one of the fabric backdrops has a secret opening that up close, is visibly more dirty than the rest of the backdrop.) On the flip side, if you want to see how the tricks are done, get the VIP seats next to the stage. I won't spoil it by explaining which tricks get spoiled, but you'll see at least 4-5. My husband and I still had a good time but I think I'd enjoy it more if the tricks were still a mystery.
