\n

From July 25 to 30, 2022, the Qu\u00e9bec City Convention Centre is pleased to host the 28th edition of the FISM World Championship of Magic 2022<\/a>, the most important magic competition in the world!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

It took more than a magic trick and 8 years of work<\/a> (from 2014 to 2022) to attract the International Federation of Magic Societies (FISM) championships to Qu\u00e9bec City. This is a first in North America since the founding of FISM in 1948! The event will bring together nearly 2,000 magic enthusiasts worldwide and 110 competitors.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

\u201cThe Qu\u00e9bec City Convention Centre is proud to partner with this unique event. Much effort has been made since 2014 to ensure that in 2018, Qu\u00e9bec City succeeded in convincing the majority of the presidents of the 101 magic clubs to vote in favour of it becoming the official host city<\/a>. The impact of this event will be major for Qu\u00e9bec City\u2014not only for the economic spin-offs and the tremendous visibility the city will enjoy during the summer season but especially because it sends a strong signal of recovery. It is a privilege to host this event,\u201d said Mr. Pierre-Michel Bouchard, President and CEO of the Qu\u00e9bec City Convention Centre.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

These \u201cOlympics of Magic\u201d will also be open to the public. By purchasing their tickets, spectators will be able to attend the opening and closing ceremonies of the championships as well as five gala shows featuring world-class magicians and others well-known in Qu\u00e9bec, such as Luc Langevin and Alain Choquette.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

A championship\u2026 and a festival!<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
\n

Magic will be felt throughout Qu\u00e9bec City, as the championship will take place in parallel with the Qu\u00e9bec City Magic Festival<\/a>: Qu\u00e9bec, MAGIC City! Just steps away from the Qu\u00e9bec City Convention Centre, the whole family will enjoy more than 500 hours of free entertainment, performances and activities in the surrounding neighbourhoods.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
