If you’re looking for big laughs and plenty of silliness at this year’s Adelaide Fringe, The Greatest Magic Show is a fantastic pick. Perfect for families wanting a lighthearted, crowd-pleasing Fringe experience.

This show was very fun and our kids absolutely loved it. It’s packed with high-energy magic, hilarious slapstick moments, giant undies, fart jokes and lots of audience interaction — exactly the kind of humour that had the kids laughing nonstop.

The magician does a great job keeping the audience engaged, with plenty of surprises, visual tricks and funny moments that keep little ones fully entertained from start to finish. The pacing is fast, the jokes land well with younger audiences, and there’s never a dull moment. Best suited for kids aged 4–10, especially those who love silly humour and interactive shows.
