Review Mat Franco Linq Vegas…..
After wowing audiences on America’s Got Talent – Mat Franco has now been performing nightly for 2 years in Las Vegas at The LINQ Hotel and Casino.
This show has become such a success that this Summer he’s adding a 2nd daily show at 9.30pm and Caesars are re-naming his theatre ‘The Mat Franco Theatre’.
Mat is naturally warm, incredibly charming, cool and completely at ease at his sell-out showroom on Las Vegas Boulevard tonight.
His popularity is obvious. His show is clearly a crowd pleaser. The audience truly loved him.
This is not ‘grand illusion’ and does not have huge sets, big tricks or breath-taking stunts. What it does have is a fast paced, high energy delivery with Mat mostly interacting with his adoring audience. He makes it look easy.
Mat Franco is not ‘reinventing’ magic – it’s classic close-up & misdirection. He delivers a solid 70 minutes of crafted family theatre packed with slick, beautifully witty and performed mentalism & trickery.

Enjoy an EXCLUSIVE HD Video review & interview with Mat & Alex via YouTube:
Franco has done this all his life. He reminds us twice in the show that whilst his older brothers were playing sports, he was rehearsing aged 10 for his big break in Vegas. It paid off.
His self deprecation adds to his charm. His cheekiness and warmth makes him one of the most relatable & likable magicians on the planet. He’s far from creepy or aloof like most.
As seen during his time on “America’s Got Talent,” the 29-year-old performs his signature up-close tricks with audience members, seemingly hiding nothing in the intimate LINQ Showroom. There really isn’t a bad seat.
Here’s Mat & Alex @ The Linq:
Franco shares some of his personal stories with the audience about his journey to becoming a magician. His segment with his Grandma is quite moving.
With audience improv and participation, no two shows will be the same, allowing for a rare and unique intimate magic experience in a packed high energy room.
Catch Mat Franco in Vegas for an evening of fun, magic-packed entertainment.
The LINQ Hotel & Casino Thursday through Tuesday at 7pm + 4pm on Saturday’s.
