When was the international magic convention held?
Recently, an international magic convention was held in Kochi, Kerala. The convention, Manthra-2, was held on August 13th and 14th of August 2023. On 15th August 2023, a performance was held for the public.
Everyone likes to see magic, no matter how old they are or where they come from. People enjoy magic shows because they are fun to watch.
Why was this convention held?
Around 1,000 magicians from 14 countries came to this event. The event was meant to help magicians meet and talk about working together. They also learned different ways to do the same magic tricks. This helped them choose their favourite way to perform.
The convention also included workshops on how to advertise their shows so more people would watch them. This was important because magic shows are becoming less popular, and magicians don’t make much money from it.
There were also discussions regarding various forms of magic presentation and costume selection. Many stalls were also installed that sold magic props from all over the world.
Why are magic shows losing popularity?
Lots of magicians think magic shows are becoming less popular. They blame too much TV and other forms of entertainment for this. It's harder for them to do shows and make money now. The pandemic also affected them a lot. Many magicians do other small jobs to make money.
