Today marks Mega Magic’s 20 Year Anniversary! It’s truly been the ride of a lifetime. I remember the day that changed the course of my life. I was at Wonderland and stumbled across a booth selling magic tricks. From that day on, I became obsessed with learning more about the art. I never saw being a magician as a career path but here we are half a lifetime later. Wow!
The amount of joy, experiences, stories & friendships that this path has created is the real magic. The world of show business has given me so many opportunities that I am forever grateful. When I look back at my journey, I never wanted to give up. I knew that all great things take time, perseverance, sacrifice and dedication. No matter how many doors closed, there was always a way to keep moving forward.
Looking back at these 20 years, it’s so cool seeing the evolution of Mega Magic. My first job was busking at the Zoo and selling magic at Centre Island in High School. Fast forward and it’s become a global company representing acts from around the world with our talent division.
There are so many highlights from over the years but there is much more behind the scenes. This past year, I travelled countless hours on over 40 flights, hundreds of hours on the road and slept in more hotel rooms than I have been home. It’s definitely not for everyone and does take a toll but I wouldn’t change it for anything.
So what’s next?! I guess we’ll see which door opens next along this crazy path. I have always believed that stepping outside our comfort zone allows us to achieve greatness. I have pushed myself to take on projects that make me expand my horizons. Presenting a talk for the CIA on how magic is used in everyday life to misdirect people, competing on The Traitors Canada, stadium shows for thousands of guests and performing in countries such as China & Qatar where they don’t speak English. These challenges have turned into rewarding life experiences.
A huge thank you to everyone for the love and support over the years. From coming out to my shows, having us at your events and following our adventures on social media. I’m so beyond excited to share the next chapter of this journey together. Every good thing in this world started with a dream!
Sold Out Shows in Niagara Falls!
We just completed our 10 year residency at the beautiful Sheraton Fallsview in Niagara Falls. What a run of shows it was over these past 2 weeks. Sold out shows nightly with thousands of guests and celebrity visitors coming to experience Mega Magic live on stage.
After winning The Traitors Canada, I have had people reaching out to me from around the world. The show received 1.2 million viewers on a weekly basis and has become a global sensation with many countries already in their second season.
Check out this video from an interview that I did with ETalk about my experience on the show.
As we move into 2024, I’m excited for what the future holds. This is a HUGE milestone for myself and our team. I remember walking into the business registration office on January 9, 2004 with just a dream. Now I’m living it.
Here is a toast to the next 20!
