Magic means something different to everyone. For history-making magician Mat Franco, it's uncharted territory meant to be explored with respect and reverence. The Rhode Island -born and Las Vegas-based phenomenon has rooted his world-renowned Las Vegas show, MAT FRANCO - MAGIC REINVENTED NIGHTLY, in a spirit of exploration as no two evenings are the same. Obsessed with magic as a kid, he has performed since grade school. Attending University of Rhode Island, he studied marketing and business to support the magic in addition to gigs at libraries, offices, restaurants, and colleges across the country. He spent four years in the college circuit before deciding to audition for America's Got Talent in order "to get video content in order to land more gigs." However, he made history as "the first magician to emerge in the winner's circle of America's Got Talent" in 2014. A year later, he produced and starred in the popular NBC special, Mat Franco's Got Magic. Meanwhile, Las Vegas came calling. MAT FRANCO -- MAGIC REINVENTED NIGHTLY was born at The LINQ Hotel + Experience inside of the Mat Franco Theater in 2015. Performing to 600 people for 90 minutes per gig, the show morphs and transforms in real-time as a living and breathing experience. You'll experience world-famous signature tricks, yet he leaves enough room for improvisation and surprises, making each night singular and special. Logging thousands of shows, he stretches the boundaries of what magic can be and leaves guests in a state of wonder.
It's no surprise Las Vegas Review-Journal honored MAT FRANCO - MAGIC REINVENTED NIGHTLY with "Gold Winner for Best Magic Show," "Gold Winner for Best Production Show," and "Best Showroom / Live Venue." Not to mention, it stands out as a 4x-time winner of "Best Headliner" from SNHCA (Southern Nevada Hotel & Concierge Association). KNPR's Desert Companion Magazine christened it "Best Strip Show." Clark County declared July 10, 2017 to be "Mat Franco Day" on the Las Vegas Strip and across the County, while he received the coveted "Key To The Strip." Outside of Las Vegas, millions have watched in awe as Mat reinvented magic on TODAY, Steve Harvey, Live with Kelly and Ryan, on the final season of ELLEN, and at the NFL Draft in addition to returning to America's Got Talent. Scan YouTube, and you'll find him wowing the likes of Kelly Clarkson, Heidi Klum, Rob Gronkowski, Nicole Scherzinger, Howie Mandel, and more in clips viewed millions of times.
Simultaneously, he gives back at any chance possible. He remains passionate about animals and has supported Nevada's The Animal Foundation by hosting crucial supply drives and raising funds on an annual basis. He notably donated $20,000 in winnings from Who Wants To Be A Millionaire to the NSPCA. Indicative of his commitment to philanthropy, he immediately took to Facebook at the start of the Global Pandemic to continue performing for fans as "one of the first entertainers to livestream shows." He also honored first responders and essential workers with a dedicated show upon the reopening of Las Vegas. Ultimately, Mat never stops exploring, and it's why his magic will last forever.
This show was so much fun. Mat Franco did some amazing things and his personality is so darn cute, I would definitely go see this show again and actually take my kids to Vegas to see it. I would recommend it to anyone - any age.
We have seen many magic shows in Las Vegas. This was by far the best and most entertaining show we have seen. The theater is small enough to really enjoy the show. He involves the audience and his smile is fantastic. The time passed quickly and let you wanting more! Highly recommended.
Mat put on a great show very entertaining and engaging with the crowd. He has a lot of energy and you can tell he truly loves performing Magic.
We were super big Mat franco fans coming into the show, because we watched AGT and saw him win! He was just as awesome in person- his tricks are one of a kind! i even got picked to help him on stage- super fun! Great for the whole family!
Mat Franco is not only an amazing magician, but he has incredible showmanship. He involves the audience in his show, bringing people up on stage for his tricks. What a talent! He will go far. He is just as charming and charismatic as he was on America's Got Talent and his TV special. He's the real deal!
Great show. Excellent magic with a twist of comedy
He was fun, great personality, interacts w crowd, definitely worth seeing. His tricks and illusions are awesome! He really was good. I liked him a lot. AGT got him right!!
When I watched Mat Franco on America's Got Talent....he kept me watching his every move. He definitely lived up to the reason that he won. Funny, quick, sharp, and left us dazzled!
If you can, try to find the cheapest seats possible using a discount code. I went with the $100 seats in the front and feel that it was not worth it like it can be with other shows. It was just regular chairs and hard to see if you have a big and tall person in front of you as it is not stadium seating in front. I think the seats in the back would have been just fine if not better as they had a elevated view in the small room. Regarding the show, since I do not watch America's Got Talent I was not fully aware of who Mat was and it probably helps to be a fan to enjoy the show more. Most of the tricks are good, some I have seen before by other people and some were a bit boring. His slight of hand is incredible and several of the tricks were quite outstanding. I think the more he matures and can get better production support, the show will greatly improve.
Mat put on an awesome show. He is funny and entertaining. If you are in Vegas, his is the show to see!
Show was entertaining. A lot of similar tricks to AGT show.
Wonderful experience at this show. Definitely will be talking about it for quite some time.
All but one trick (wine bottles), could easily be seen how he does tricks. The audience participants are usually a part of all shows but this show used them in almost every trick and they were so obvious that they were actors. The final trick was not even visible to the audience directly but only on a big screen, hmmmm....prerecorded earlier with cards arranges how he wanted. Showroom sucked too. Aluminum movaeable seating with almost no floor slope. Wasted valuable Vegas time and money.
He put on great show. He was really good in all aspects of his show
Mat brings high energy, personal story, humor, and the MOST brilliant, creative magic to an audience that is mesmerized by his authentic personality and performance. So fun, so beautiful at times, and so unbelievable! He engages the audience the whole time, selecting members to participate on stage with him.He is a joy to watch and is a must ticket to get.
Mat Franco puts on a super magic show. His tricks are mind-boggling and he is a great entertainer---funny and engaging. The theater is set up so you are not far from the stage no matter where you sit---and the large screens help zoom in on what's happening with his hands up close. Go and enjoy a 'magical' evening!
He won AGT with his personality and it's also true at The Linq. Got a long way to catch up with Criss Angel and David Copperfield kid but, you're good!
We loved his show--really glad we went. Would definitely recommend anyone thinking about going to GO!
Very entertaining performance. Mat is lively, funny and provides the audience with amazing magic that leaves everyone wondering how he does it! Very entertaining and gets audience participation.
My wife and I enjoyed Mat Franco so much!!!!! He is an amazing magician and showman, well worth the money we spent!!
