The Cardini Cabaret is located in the Arrow Hub of the Melbourne Magic Festival, Arrow on Swanston.
The theatre seats 80 guests and has a raised stage and comfortable seating. During the day, children are invited to sit on mats in front of the stage so they can enjoy the magic and fun up close.
Make sure you arrive at least 30 minutes before showtime so you can head downstairs to Magic Central (our theatre foyer) and explore. We’ll have random acts of magic, jam sessions, instagrammable locations and the Magic Universe Shop. In the evening you can grab a cocktail courtesy of Melbourne Mobile Bars.
