The Northern Magic Circle 2013 Convention will take place on the weekend of April 6^th & 7^th  2013 at the Whitby Pavilion, about 20 miles up the coast from Scarborough. The Pavilion Complex and Theatre promises to be an excellent venue for 2013.

We have a great weekend planned, including two close-up shows, the Gala Show, the Children’s Show a cluster of star lecturers and to round it off, a celebration show for the 40^th Anniversary of the Northern Magic Circle Juniors, supported by current and former Juniors, Shaun McCree, Danny Hunt and Annette Claire of Amethyst, Sebastian Walton, Toby Davies and a host more. You can also catch up with our Dealers Martin Hunt of MAPro Magic, Brian Berry and others in our Café dealer hall at the Pavilion.

We have a great weekend planned and we are pleased to be able to confirm that our headline guest is to be none other than Greg Wilson from USA. Greg came to our Convention back in 2009 and was a huge hit. Greg will not only be giving his brand new lecture at what we believe will be the start of a UK tour but he will be appearing in our Gala Show and will take part in the Close-up shows as well.

Gregory Wilson is a two-time FISM award-winner and probably most known for his best-selling instructional videos. In 1998, he was also bestowed (by the International Brotherhood of Magicians) the Most Creative Magician of the Year Award. He has contributed many of his original effects to every major magic magazine in the world as well as a full chapter in Paul Harris’ The Art of Astonishment, a chapter in Harry Lorayne’s Best of Friends 3, a chapter in The Magic Menu and a chapter in the wildly popular Magic For Dummies. (Just don’t hold that last one against him).

Whitby is a lovely old fishing village with many unique shops to visit and local fish and chips to sample. The harbour area, the beaches and abbey ruins are popular attractions. There are many small guest houses offering good value for money and we will be taking advantage of the accommodation bureau service offered by the local Tourist Information Service.
