Tips from the community

Get dressed in cocktail attire and spend a magical date night out in Chicago witnessing the magic of third-generation magician and mind reader, Dennis Watkins, who has been performing magic at the Palmer House Hotel for years. Fewer than 50 guests are ushered into a room to watch The Parlour Magic, Chicago’s longest-running magic show. After the 90-minute show, up to 12 magic fans can go to The Encore Room for a bonus 25-minute magic show held around a card table. During this more intimate affair, guests are treated to Watkins’ sleight of hand close-up magic and a question-and-answer session.
