Fantastic Magic Camp
Camps & Programs
Fantastic Magic Camp is a fully inclusive day camp for children between the ages of 5 and 12 (we do have a few seasonal programs with age variations up to 16). At Magic Camp, campers will have fun learning magic, juggling, puppets, and a host of varied circus and variety arts skills. The day ends with a show by a magician, juggler, clown, puppeteer, ventriloquist, or storyteller, but most often a magician!
We offer Summer, Spring, Winter and other holiday camps and events as well as private programming. Our campers frequently tell us that Magic Camp is the most fun they’ve had all summer and ask to come back again and again. We also offer late pick-up, Rehearsal Time, for our camps and mini-camps.
How do we do it? At Fantastic Magic Camp we embrace our community and meet them where they are at. We do not foster competition among the campers, instead providing them with a safe place to try new things and improve their skills and allow them room to grow at their own pace.
Summer Camp
Summer time at Fantastic Magic Camp is unforgettable. Kids ages 5–12 learn magic, juggling, puppetry, and more in a supportive and fun environment. Whether they’re first-timers or returning pros, campers grow in confidence, creativity, and joy—plus they take home a magic briefcase full of tricks and memories!
Spring, Thanksgiving & Winter Break Camps
Our Spring, Thanksgiving and Winter Break camps are packed with magic, juggling, puppetry, and fun! Campers build confidence, make new friends, and learn real performance skills—while having a blast. It's everything you love about our summer sessions fit into the middle of the school year.
One-Day Mini Camps & Events
From one-day mini camps on school holidays to evening workshops and Parents Night Out events, we’ve got magical experiences all year long. Kids get hands-on learning with card magic, puppets, optical illusions, and more. It’s a fun way to stay connected to camp between sessions—or get a taste of the magic for the first time!
Performer's Academy
Unlock your inner magician and become a star with Performer’s Academy! This exclusive two-week program runs alongside regular camp, combining all the fun of Fantastic Magic Camp with a special focus on producing, rehearsing, and performing a full magic show. Campers ages 10–16 will work on their own routines and may even perform larger-scale illusions from our camp collection. Whether they’re brand-new or seasoned magicians, anyone passionate about performing is welcome.
Youth Leadership Academy
YLA is Fantastic Magic Camp’s leadership training program designed for our regular Fantastic Magic Camp campers that have aged out of our regular camps, and want to give back to the community as an intern at Magic Camp! Participants ages 13-18 develop life skills, professional growth, and leadership abilities through hands-on training and fun, collaborative experiences. Interns who complete the program may work at Fantastic Magic Camp during our camps and programs, and contribute to a magical, inclusive community. Every December we email our 12 year old campers with enrollment information, so this experience is just for those that have attended camp in the past.
Libby A, Parent
"This is a summer favorite for both my kids, we have been so impressed with Fantastic Magic Camp over the years. My 11-year-old daughter and 8-year-old son are always bursting with stories from the daily performances and new tricks to practice and perform. The counselors are positive, patient, and thoughtful. Highly recommend!"

"This camp changed my life! I am still using lessons learned (from important character lessons to life skills) from working there over 10 years ago. Highly recommend for anyone who doesn't feel like they fit in anywhere else."
Kat K, Parent
"My son's all-time favorite camp. He LOVES figuring out "the secret" of how the magic tricks work and regularly performs his own magic shows at home for friends and family."
