Over 500 people joined our live-streamed lecture event!
A recording of the entire 2.5 hour event is posted here! See the running order and time codes here. (Please forgive the opening 3-min video montage being muted.) Big thanks to Max Maven, Shawn Farquhar, Stephen Bargatze, & John Shryock!
Our annual weekend convention had to be cancelled, but we're keeping our eye on rescheduling as soon as possible. We'd love to get this very same lineup, but that'll depend on their availability. Find out when we schedule our next event by joining our mailing list at the bottom of this page, as well as our FB page. (We only email with important event announcements, 7 or 8 times/year.)
Specific weekend event cancellation news at this link.
Everyone will be getting a full refund. About 35% of them have been processed, and the rest should be done by April 5. (Was shooting for March 31, but got blindsided by Paypal's 3-5 day delay for moving money from a bank account to a PP account - and the refunds must go thru them.) If you'd like to voluntarily donate $10 or more of your refund to help with the sunk costs, or leave your registration in for the next event, say so in a quick email to info@pdxmagicjam.com. Stand-alone contributions can also be made at paypal.me/PortlandMagicJam. Otherwise the default will be full refunds to everyone by April 5.
The Sheraton & Hampton Inn gave full refunds on hotel reservations. (As noted here and in our emails, they didn't cancel automatically - you had to call them! )
Forgive us for leaving some of the moot convention info still on this site. Leaving the formatting up allows a head start on the changes when we reschedule.
The 4 Horsemen of the 2020 PMJ
This year's registrations had surpassed all previous years, so our weekend of magic and camaraderie is growing nicely!
EVENING SHOWS: Be sure to tell your friends about our Fri & Sat night shows! Go to the Evening Show tab for info on the lineups, tickets, and the great poster we hope you'll share on your social media!
HOTEL ROOMS: We sold out our discounted room block at the Sheraton, but the Hampton Inn next door matched their $129/night price.
Magic Dealers was to include a whole bunch of great folks listed here. Hopefully they'll all return when we reschedule!
Remember the following guys from last year?
One last tip-o-the hat to last year's headliners!
Our four 2019 headliners were genuinely great guys, and had a great time here in Portland! David Regal, Jonathan Levit, Tom Burgoon, & Robert Ramirez!
Here are some great photos from the 2019 event:
Also a great Video Montage by Darren Sethe.
