Had a great time at this. The Cloak of Invisibility had us laughing and could not figure out how he did those tricks. Was good for all the ages with many of his jokes had a bit of double meaning. Was really entertaining. Easy to get into and out of and would suggest to anyone coming to Vegas as a quick, inexpensive magic/comedy show. read more

This was my second time seeing the Mac King show; he has aged, but the show is still amazing. His show has remained pretty much the same, but what is unpredictable are the participants he calls from the audience. That is what really makes this show: how Mac interacts with them. It's really funny when the audience participant messes up and Mac has to pivot. He's great. There are many "how did he do that" moments! Great for families, highly recommend. read more

Very entertaining, family-friendly show. Lots of audience engagement. Kids will love it.

Amazing! A master of the craft and a true legand in entertainment. Before the show I was full of expectations and hope. Then from the moment it started all expectations were throughly exceeded. The show was great from the opening to the climax. Thank you Mac for the best show I have experienced. Being willing to chat with us after the show was a kicker I didn't expect. I will proudly wear my Mac King Susan G. Komen bracelet. The interactions with the audience made everyone feel welcomed and connected. I reccomend this show for all ages and anyone who likes comedy or magic as both were top notch in this show. read more

The Mac King Comedy Magic Show - Pre-show photo of the stage. No photos during the show but your memories will last trust me. - Comedy Clubs Near Me

Funny Dude... I saw Mac King on my very first trip to Las Vegas many years ago. He was at a different casino and it was a LOT cheaper. Now he's at the bougie Excalibur where they charge a premium for his afternoon show (3p). You can find deals in the MGM app and in the rooms (and probably many other places), so do some looking around before you pay full price. The show is wonderful. It's billed as family friendly and for the most part it's true unless your family is really sheltered from minor potty humor. It's enjoyable for the magic, the comedy and the downright silliness of Mac King. There's a reason Penn & Teller love this guy. It's a great way to kill some time in the mid afternoon after you bake in the sun at the pool or before happy hour at one of the bars. You may just find yourself REALLY enjoying this show. I was a fan over 25 years ago and still a fan today. read more

The Mac King Comedy Magic Show - No photos inside! - Comedy Clubs Near Me

We booked this show because our kids (11 and 12 years old) really wanted to see a magic show while on vacation and it was pretty highly rated, affordable, and advertised as family friendly. Mac king is a skilled magician and his tricks were pretty cool. He was pretty funny but many of his jokes were not necessarily family friendly and had lots of sexual innuendos. Potty humor would have been one thing but sexual crosses the line a bit, especially when directed toward women he brings up on stage. The audience was packed with kids so it's clear most people came because they thought it was kid appropriate. Given the minimal offerings of affordable and kid friendly shows on the strip, it would have been way better to just keep it wholesome for everyone in the room. I would not recommend it as a family friendly option or at a minimum families should know what they can expect. read more

Are you looking for a family friendly experience (with some adult humor) in Vegas? Then Mac King's comedy show is just for you! Don't be fooled by it being in the same showroom as Thunder From Down Under! This is a family friendly show! Ever since I was a wee lass I would see his mug plastered on every taxi or billboard and was always curious of what the show would be like! I finally decided to attend an event because there was a great deal for MGM rewards members that I couldn't pass up, and I'm glad I didn't! Without giving too much away, I'll say that Mac had a penchant for comedy, magic and entertainment! Everyone in the audience was having a great time. There was even an opportunity to meet Mac after the show (free), and I even got my book signed by him! He was very kind and accommodating to for selfies too! read more

The Mac King Comedy Magic Show - Mac and Me - Comedy Clubs Near Me

We surprised our kids for the first time in Vegas and first time at a magic show. We booked this after doing research. We also got dead center front row seats so kids could be involved. Well not only were they completely ignored, they brought someone else as a replacement named Derek Hugh's. No email was ever sent so this was a shock. We paid too much for the experience and all left beyond disappointed. Not only was he not great, but my kids kept asking why they were never picked sitting right up front. Such a waste of money! read more

The Mac King Comedy Magic Show - Comedy Clubs Near Me

Great magic show, joyous, and really funny for a really good price! Me and my husband came to the show together, so we felt like not the typical audience as there were mostly families in the crowd, but we loved it and thought it was a great show with plenty of humor that was both funny for kids and had some more adult double-meanings, and hey, why not? We are in Las Vegas. I really loved how Mac weaved his jokes into a continuous story so that every magic trick felt like it was paced to arrive at the right time. Nothing dragged on too much, and the tricks felt like the result was earned. I will say some of humor is more PG13 in that he pulls objects from the pant zipper, but nothing inappropriate is ever seen - but if this seems too suggestive for you, that's fine. He is very aware of the audience though and the audience (mostly families) was cracking up for most of the show. He is also very respectful of the audience members that come up with him, giving them appropriate space and never touching any part of them without asking. Also, this is a great value! We paid ~$70 (when tax was included) per person (we were in one of the front tables), and in Vegas? That's a great deal and it was a nice show to have in the midday when me and my husband wanted a relaxing, funny show to watch before we go out at night. If I come back to Vegas with friends, I would love to share this show with them. read more

Mac King was amazing! His ability to play off of the audience, switch gears when people don't quite do things the way he plans for them to do, and his interaction with everyone he pulled up on stage made the show so much more fun! I would be lying if I didn't say our favorite part was when our 10 year old Talon, got pulled up on stage to participate in a camping lesson. We've never laughed so hard! The adult humor was on point, and the kid humor was equally as funny. It was the perfect way to end our trip to Las Vegas. The whole show made our oldest, Treten, super excited to learn more that he got both the book and the magic kit after the show. Mac even signed the book and the poster our youngest got during the show, and took pictures with us all. Such a cool experience. Thank you for the memories! read more

The Mac King Comedy Magic Show - Comedy Clubs Near Me

This show was amazing from start to finish. Mac is a true magician and tried as we could. We could not figure out his tricks. He infuses his routine with comedy. He certainly gets the audience involved. There were children as young as seven and his adults as old as... I highly recommend this show. read more

We had a blast at the show. My kids were nervous about being called up and they were lucky they didn't. We were entertained the whole time and it was engaging. Overall a good show to catch if you are sick of gambling. read more

Definitely don't see how kids are welcome with him pulling tricks out of his pants and unzipping it. It's fine if an adult show but not kids. read more

There's a very good reason why Mac King has been performing for so long. It's a wonderful show for the entire family with occasional jokes for the parents. It's a great combination of silly, magical, and surprises. We love how most of the tricks are unique instead of the silly rope tricks or etc that magicians learn from YouTube. We enjoyed meeting him after the show for a picture and signature too. read more

This show had its moments. Some tricks were straight-up wild -- had my kid whispering "how?!" like it was Stranger Things season one. There were a couple spots that dragged, but then he'd hit you with something so random and genius you're like, alright Mac, I see you. Someone said it's got Shrek humor -- and yeah, it kinda does. Goofy, weird, playful... the kind of jokes that feel like they're meant for both your kid and your inner 10-year-old. Definitely not trying to be edgy, and honestly, that's its charm. We had front row seats -- which came with a close-up view of magic and some of the most questionable seating arrangements in Vegas. It shares the space with an exotic show, and bro... these chairs were giving "strip club on a budget." I almost bought a ticket to the next show just to see how they make it work. But Mac? Real one. Stayed after, signed a book for my kid, and was genuinely thoughtful. That moment alone made the night feel personal. Also, shoutout to the bartender -- smooth, cool, and had good drink recs. No complaints there. It's not a high-gloss, fireball-exploding kinda Vegas show. It's giving Nickelodeon meets early-2000s Comedy Central -- and somehow it works. Pull up knowing what it is, and you'll have a good time -- especially if you've got kids who still think magic is real (or want to believe again for an hour). read more

Las Vegas, Nevada: Excalibur Hotel: Mac King is very funny! This doesn't come with food. the tables have a designated area for drinks because he might walk on your table. It was kept pretty nice. Mac's jokes were dirty but funny. he pulls kids and adults up to help with his comedy. after the show he signed autographs and sold merch. I would recommend this show to anybody who loves magic, comedy, or both! (moderate sound level, 1 jump-scare.) read more

What a great show for the family!! This is one of the classic old school Vegas shows and Mac King is a and amazing performer, we had such a great time. The comedy and the tricks keep the show entertaining the whole Time. The theater is really nice and not too big so you still get a great view from your seats. I have 2 boys 13 and 10 and along with us they had such a blast. read more

The Mac King Comedy Magic Show - After the show signing autographs - Comedy Clubs Near Me

The illusions were great. We brought our grandkids and one was picked to go on stage and she had a wonderful experience. I see there are some complaints about adult type humor for this 3P.M. show but from experience having our 8 and 11 year old grandkids with us, the adult humor went right over their heads. read more

Tacky. Yucky. His magic is something you would get from your uncle at thanksgiving dinner. He makes disgusting jokes using his trouser zipper as a place to pull cards from and even a fig newton. Gross. We left! Do not waste your time or money. After 15 years of shows in Las Vegas, this is the worst. Some shows are just getting started and you can give them grace as they get their rhythm. This guy is like watching your creepy neighbor try to impress children so they will ask to go to his house alone. Very disturbing. read more

I just came home from this show with my parents. I'm a 31 y/o adult woman. Let me tell you, if you're looking for an awkward, uncomfortable, high-pressure hour to take your children to, then this is the perfect place for you. If you'd have just ADVERTISED it as an ADULT comedy magic show, like, ages 18+, we'd have thought it was a hoot! Decent tricks! But dude. There were so many little kids there. Even my parents were grossed out, and they're of a much stronger constitution than me. That was the strangest, most disgusting show I've ever seen in my entire lifetime of living in Vegas, and that's really saying something. If you're gonna repeatedly pull objects out of your fly, create constant sexual overtones and innuendos, humiliate your audience, and tell women to tie you up, PLEASE don't do it around the little ones. This was a disgrace to family entertainment. I am deeply embarrassed to have been exposed to all that in front of my parents. I was expecting an afternoon of fun, silly magic tricks with some wholesome jokes, and I ended up all mad. At 3 in the dang afternoon. Not cool. TL;DR - It's fine for adults, but do NOT bring the kiddos. read more

A great and funny magical show. I had a great time. It's a Vegas bargin for live entertainment and at a early hour. It gives you time for other activities. read more

The Mac King Comedy Magic Show - Comedy Clubs Near Me

Okay I came not this show thinking this is gonna be that same old dumb thing magicians do, and some of it was, but some was brand new to me. Also he has a way of combining comedy and magic Ive never seen. I don't want to give too much away. But I do recommend this show. Also it's an afternoon show which is great because then you can do another show, dinner, or drinks after! He was so funny. Should update his picture but other than that. Show felt intimate and entertaining. I do also have to say the customer service and ladies bringing us into the show were not that nice nor directive. We were standing there inside the showroom before you are escorted to the tables and we were there for awhile. No one told us where to go. We didn't want to just walk by ourselves and be rude. But eventually we had to do that because we had no choice and figured out our own chairs. Mac King is great and funny! I would definitely see it! read more

How are people going to call this a "family friendly" show when he is constantly pulling props out of his crotch? "Hey kids, is Mac going to reach into his fly and pull out a cookie? Yes!" Uhhh... I don't know what sort of families everyone else is running but I wouldn't want to explain that to a small child. Lots of sexual innuendo about penetration and Mac straight up telling a woman from the audience to get naked and tie him up with a rope. I turned to my husband and said, "is this even 2023?" Lecherous behaviour isn't my kind of humour. People he brought up on stage to participate will have you distressed that these people can legally vote, probably purchase firearms and parent children. Woman brought on stage was told to write her name on a card so that Mac would then find her card, magically, from the deck. She wrote her name on the back of the card... so her name was visible when he shuffled the deck. He had her pick a new card to write her name on the playing face side. He told her to show the audience what her card was so we would know if he pulled her card. Instead she showed him her card and said it was "the 5 of clubs..." Jesus take the wheel. Mac brought a guy up who couldn't understand odds and Mac made a joke about this is how casinos make money. Trick had more pulling stuff out of his fly to hand to the guy he brought on stage. While some of the tricks (specifically the cereal box, bear and shoe trick) were great, you'll see these tricks at many of the affordable magic shows in Vegas. While I wasn't a fan of the humour, I was going to rate it at least 3 stars because I did enjoy some of the tricks. It was 3 stars until on our way out I stopped to wait in line where Mac was selling merch and signing autographs to take a photo of my husband with Mac. There were some younger teen (Caucasian) girls in line that asked Mac if he would (I believe take a photo with them) and he said no because they "could have a disease that (he) didn't know about." What? I stepped out of line and told my husband that apparently he wasn't doing photos. The girls in front of us walked over to I'm guessing their dad and said, "he wouldn't. He insinuated that we have a disease." If I misheard them asking for a photo and they were asking him for something else, I don't know what else they possibly could have asked for where "no, because you might have a disease that I don't know about" would be a reasonable response to that request from a customer. Also - no photos or videos are allowed during the show. Visited: February 2023 read more

The Mac King Comedy Magic Show - Inside February 2023 - Comedy Clubs Near Me

I believe the greatest magic Mac King displays is his enthusiasm and craftsmanship delivering his show. Despite running this gig for almost 20 years, his performance feels fresh. He's funny, down to earth, and honest in his storytelling. Also, it's not about the tricks (that are intriguing, btw) but is his storytelling, his positive energy and grace interacting with the audience - intertwined with magic tricks - that keeps people booking sold out performances over such a long period of time. His magician colleagues (as Shim Lin, Penn & Teller, Chriss Angel) get lower reviews - though they have better marketed names - and charge premium for their tickets. Watching this show after 10 years and still getting surprised is one of the reasons, I believe. I don't care about Vegas, but Mac King is a great excuse to fly over there! read more

He did a lot of 'oh it's in the zipper of my pants' jokes/tricks. Very off putting and was probably only funny the first time... just not worth it... I fell asleep. Go see Shin Lim instead. read more

Booked the afternoon show thru mgm hotel. Got email confirmation tickets and thoroughly enjoyed the show. A bit of comedy, mystifying magic and just fun for the whole family. He engages the audience and takes a few volunteers and it was a great afternoon of entertainment. I'd never think a daytime Vegas show would be good, but will definitely come again as he changes up the show frequently as o heard. His show is in the 2nd floor of the Excalibur read more

Fun show. It is good for kids and adults. There are many double entendres. I will likely take my elementary-aged daughter there the next time we are in town. I paid ~$70 for my ticket, and it was worth it. It is a relatively small theater, so there are no bad seats. There are shows at 1 and 3pm. If you have a child that is into magic, they will definitely love it. Plus Mac will meet everyone after the show. He was kind and funny. This is a good show for the whole family. read more

Absolutely wonderful show. Family friendly and very funny. It was the first trip to Vegas for my wife and son and we all had a blast at Mac's show. My wife hasn't laughed so hard in a long time. We highly recommend this afternoon show. read more

This is SUCH a great show. I have an 11 year old son and was looking for something fun for us to do, and Mac King did not disappoint. We were both amazed by all of his tricks, and he was so funny and engaging. I am impressed that he probably does this every day of his life but keeps it fresh and personal. We laughed a lot and looked at each other many times saying "how did he DO that??" Truly a wonderful show. I would see it again in a heartbeat. read more

heard about this from Yelp. definitely a gem. great value for what you get - show is both funny and the tricks are neat. Unfortunately, I had watched some of his content on YouTube during my research, where those tricks were recycled on the show....so don't make the same mistake as me. Nonetheless, it was a memorable show. My friends all really enjoyed it - I would highly recommend this. read more

BAIT AND SWITCH? Not sure how to rate this. Bought tickets online the night before. Arrived to discover a different performer was taking Mac's place?!! NO mention at time of purchase. NO refunds. While waiting for the show to start, I checked the website again. It did say there would be the replacement performer going forward, but said there were "no shows today." As we sat there AT THE SHOW?!! Replacement performer was "okay," just NOT what we had paid to see. read more

Awesome show for the whole family. Our kids were totally into it and had a blast. It was fun, easy to follow, and kept everyone entertained the whole time. Definitely recommend if you're looking for something the little ones will enjoy too. read more
