Day to day, that means new and returning residencies on the Strip and downtown, opening nights for touring magic shows, and escapology stunts staged for live audiences. Coverage reaches the venues across the city and the performers who move between Las Vegas and the rest of the touring circuit.

Production schedules and venue turnover are the two factors that most often decide how long a magic show stays on the Las Vegas calendar.
