Inspired by Lionsgate’s global hit franchise, Now You See Me, and brought to life by the producers of the record-breaking phenomenon The Illusionists, Now You See Me Live is a mind-blowing spectacle featuring four trailblazing illusionists. The world-class magic ensemble – inspired by the franchise’s characters, the “Four Horsemen” – will stun audiences in a showcase of unmatched synergy. Assembled from around the globe, they will bring an unbelievable arsenal of solo skills, shocking twists and grand feats of illusion to Las Vegas audiences through 5 January 2027. Citi is the official card of Now You See Me Live at MGM Grand.

The “Four Horsemen” redefining the expectations of stage magic will be: - Andrew Basso (Italy) – A true daredevil known for his death-defying acts, Basso became the first, and youngest, Italian to win the World Escape Championship. - Gabriella Lester (Canada) – At only 22 years of age, the quick-witted Lester is the youngest and only female Horseman, who mastered Houdini’s upside down straight-jacket escape when she was only 14. - Adam Trent (USA) – Harnessing the power of technology and deceptive sleight of hand, Trent has become a modern magical force by translating his skills from stage to screen to social media. - Enzo Weyne (France) – A specialist in large-scale magic of unprecedented proportions, Weyne is a visionary who creates technically groundbreaking and artistic illusions. The quartet has performed in thousands of shows combined across hundreds of cities, including sold-out residencies on Broadway and in Las Vegas, and have left spellbound audiences questioning the realms of possibility in their wake. In addition to the “Four Horsemen,” the cutting-edge production will feature a rotating roster of special guests throughout the run. Simon Painter, Creative Producer, said, “The incredible illusionists we’ve carefully selected as the Four Horsemen will push the boundaries of stage magic to the absolute edge. They come from around the globe, combining their grand feats of illusion to create a show with truly mind-blowing artistry.” Jenefer Brown, Lionsgate's President, Global Products & Experiences, said, “Now You See Me has always been about challenging perceptions and surprising audiences at every turn. With this live show, fans can be part of an unforgettable experience that blurs the line between illusion and reality, creating a deeper connection with fans in a powerful new way.” Now You See Me Live is presented in Las Vegas by Live Nation Las Vegas, brought to the stage by Simon Painter (Co-Creator, Executive Producer), Adam Trent (Co-Creator), Tim Lawson (Executive Producer), Ash Jacks (McCready) (Creative Director, Staging Director), Kirsty White (Creative Director), and Enzo Wenye (Illusion Director).
