After logging nearly 600 performances of his first-ever Las Vegas residency, MAT FRANCO - MAGIC REINVENTED NIGHTLY at The LINQ Hotel & Casino, the dazzling LINQ Theater is being renamed in honor of celebrated magician Mat Franco.

Going into effect for performances starting July 10, which go on sale through the end of the year on Monday, May 1, at 10 a.m., fans can continue to experience the young magician's mystifying talent and breezy humor in the newly renamed space. For tickets and more information, visit MatFranco.com.

"The show's success is really a testament to my fans and supporters that have catapulted my little hobby into a phenomenon," said Franco. "A huge thank you also goes out to my partners at Base Entertainment, Caesars Entertainment and Red Light Management. Their efforts have been integral parts in making this dream a reality!"

Throughout a nearly decade-long career as a professional magician, Franco continues to pioneer new frontiers in the magic and entertainment worlds with one clear objective in mind: bringing happiness to his audiences. Since long before taking the stage in his first-ever resident production, the 28-year-old magician has worked tirelessly to cultivate his talents and personal brand in hopes of, one day, achieving every entertainer's dream of having a theater named in recognition of their career.

"Mat Franco is a one-of-a-kind performer and his show, MAGIC REINVENTED NIGHTLY, has been a wonderful addition to The LINQ Hotel & Casino," said Eileen Moore, regional president of The LINQ Hotel & Casino.

Named "Best Magic Show" by Las Vegas Review-Journal and "Best Strip Show" by Las Vegas Weekly, MAT FRANCO - MAGIC REINVENTED NIGHTLY continues to receive rave reviews from fans and critics alike since opening in August 2015.
