Magic-Con 2010 will be held March 18th through the 21st in San Diego, California at the Hilton Bayfront Hotel. The conference will begin Friday morning, however, we suggest everyone arrive Thursday afternoon to pick up their registration packets as well as join us in kicking off the event with a killer reception party. The conference will go on until late Sunday afternoon/early evening. If you must fly out on Sunday, we recommend booking a later flight.
Who is Magic-Con for?
Magic-Con is for anyone interested in the art, history, and advancement of magic.
How can I attend Magic-Con?
To attend Magic-Con, you must register. Space is limited, so it is highly recommended you register online before the conference.
What do I need to bring with me to Magic-Con?
Bring an open mind and anything you’d like to share. You’re registration packet will be waiting for you to pick up upon arriving. Make sure the name you give us is the name you used to register. If you received your registration through a transfer, we should have this information on file. However, it never hurts to bring a printed confirmation page or receipt.

Magic-Con will be seeking volunteers to help regulate and facilitate the day to day activities of the conferences. Volunteers must still register for the conference however. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact us and tell us how you would like to help out.
