Founded in 2022, Secrets Session is an invitation-only international magic convention dedicated to the art of close-up magic. Held annually during the third week of October at the BILL CHEUNG MAGIC THEATER in Austria, we proudly offer what we believe to be the best close-up venues found at any convention anywhere.
Our theater is designed specifically for close-up magic, featuring professional lighting,top-notch equipment, and a seating arrangement crafted to maximize the magic experience.Each year, the convention is limited to just 120 magicians, ensuring an intimate and focused atmosphere.
All events take place in our unique close-up magic theater, which includes a fully equipped bar and dedicated jamming areas right outside the performance hall. This creates the perfect environment for magicians to connect, share ideas, and find inspiration. Accommodations are located just a 2-minute walk from the theater, with both the hotel and theater offering free parking for attendees.
