Spotlight Summary
Mac King brings his Comedy Magic Show to the Thunderland Showroom at the Excalibur Hotel and Casino, where he has become Las Vegas' longest-running magician. The 70-minute show blends sleight-of-hand, illusions, and audience interaction — highlights include casting a fishing line over the crowd to catch live goldfish, performing stunts with his pet guinea pig "Colonel Sanders," and making his head disappear in a paper bag, all delivered with quick wit. Penn and Teller, who have featured Mac King three times on "Fool Us," called him "the greatest comedy magician at least alive today, and maybe who ever lived." Because of his extensive audience participation, no two shows are exactly alike.
Mac King's Comedy Magic Show at Excalibur blends laughs and illusions in a family-friendly setting on the Strip.

Spotlight Notes
Venue Details
Did You Know
Excalibur was the first resort designed specifically to appeal to families and budget travelers, marking a significant shift in Las Vegas strategy during the early 1990s away from adult-only, high-limit properties.
Insider Tip
Use the pedestrian skybridge connections to Luxor and Mandalay Bay to explore other properties without walking the Strip. Book dining and show reservations in advance, as Tournament of Kings and other performances fill up quickly, especially on weekends.
Getting There
Park in the self-parking garage attached to the property for easy access; valet is also available. The castle-shaped tower is highly visible from the Strip, making navigation straightforward. Note that the property is large, so allow extra time to walk from parking to your tower.

Nearby Experience
Mandalay Bay Resort
One of the cleaner south-Strip rooftop-view plays when the night should feel like more than one stop.
Strong move for Mandalay Bay and Allegiant-adjacent events when you want skyline energy without going full nightclub.

Nearby Experience
Bellagio Las Vegas
Classic free Strip spectacle with a bigger payoff once the sun drops and the crowd energy picks up.
Easy add-on when the event already keeps you central Strip and you want something unmistakably Vegas.

A stronger fit for central and south-Strip groups that want a deliberate side mission instead of another generic attraction.
Makes sense when the plan is already built around adventure energy, not when the night should stay on-property.
