For the past four years, Magic at Coney!!! has entertained families in Coney Island all year round! Coney Island was always a beacon for magicians throughout the world. The local sideshows at Dreamland, Luna Park and Steeplechase Park, as well as the dance halls and theaters were a proving ground for those performing artists looking to hone their skills.

"Magic at Coney!!!" has re-kindled that spark of enchantment for audiences young and old. Magical Promotions has now teamed with Peggy O'Neill's, on the site of the original Steeplechase Park, to present an afternoon of fun and wonder for the entire family. "Magic at Coney!!!" is a magical variety show highlighting a vast array of magicians; featuring illusionists, escape artists, mentalists and close-up performers.

Sunday Afternoon Matinees, EVERY Sunday at 1 PM, starting June 15th.
