Maho Magic Bar

Returning by popular demand, Japan's 'Maho Magic Bar' will transport you to a neon-lit Tokyo night of mischief, amazement, cocktails and laughter. Be ready to disbelieve your eyes as an all-new crew of Japanese superstars descend to perform exclusive magic shows at your table. Be inches from the action (and sometimes even closer!).

With fresh tricksters, fresh tricks and even fresher cocktails, you’ll see these masters at work at point blank range, putting a wild contemporary spin on Japan's ancient magic traditions. 

Fuelled by a carefully curated menu of Japanese cocktails and spirits, Maho Magic Bar is the once-in-a-lifetime experience you just can't get enough of.

Part show. Part bar. All magic!
