An intimate close-up magic experience performed in the hidden speakeasy bar Room 725 at the Fairmont Austin, with interactive shows and specialty cocktails.
Austin's Theatre of Magic is running every Saturday at the Fairmont Austin through October 17, 2026. It's a close-up magic experience, which means the tricks happen right in front of you rather than on a distant stage. The show takes place in Room 725, the hotel's hidden speakeasy bar on the seventh floor, and because the room is small and capacity is limited, you'll need to book in advance.
The whole thing is built around interaction. Instead of sitting back and watching a performance from a distance, you're part of the act, and the magicians work their tricks up close. To go with the magic, the bar serves specialty cocktails crafted for the occasion. If you're looking for something more, the hotel offers VIP magic and drink packages, and anyone who shows a Theatre of Magic ticket gets 20% off at any Fairmont Austin dining spot or bar.

There are two showtimes every Saturday: an early evening session at 5 PM and a late night one at 8 PM. General admission starts at $69, and there's a two-drink minimum per person. The experience is recommended for guests ages 8 and up, so it works as a date night or a family outing. Room 725 is on the seventh floor of the Fairmont Austin, downtown.
