Run by James Anthony
UK Magic Shop Run by a Working Magician
A magic shop with someone behind the counter who still performs. I buy what I would use. I reject the rest. If you want a catalogue of everything, this is not that shop.

The magician behind the shop
“Every magic shop I used was the same — thousands of products, no one who could tell you which ones were worth buying.”
I have been performing professionally since the 1990s. MagicWorld is the shop I wished existed: honest difficulty, no filler, and effects I would put in my own set.
— James Anthony, founder

MagicWorld is an independent magic shop based in Stockport, Greater Manchester, run by professional magician James Anthony since 1998. Unlike catalogue-style magic shops that stock everything, we hand-pick every magic trick based on real-world performing experience. If James wouldn't use it in his own professional set, it doesn't make it onto the site.
We specialise in card tricks, close-up magic, mentalism, premium playing cards, and instant download magic. Every product includes honest difficulty ratings, video demonstrations, and performer notes so you know exactly what you're getting before you buy.
Whether you're a beginner looking for your first magic trick or a working professional searching for your next closer, MagicWorld offers free UK delivery on orders over £50 and worldwide shipping to magic enthusiasts everywhere.
