Our first night of the new Hull Magicians’ Circle season is almost here!

Thursday 3rd September 2026

7:45pm

We’re kicking off the new season with one of our traditional favourites — the Pocket Trick Drive, competing for the Maskelyne Wand.

The Maskelyne Wand – Pocket Trick Drive

In this fun and creative competition, members perform a magic trick that fits entirely in their pocket.

Members then vote for their favourite performance, and the winning magician is presented with the Maskelyne Wand Trophy, officially starting another year of magical fun, club nights, lectures, workshops and competitions at Hull Magicians’ Circle.

So have a look through your pockets, choose your trick and come ready to entertain!
