About the show
MINDFREAK is Criss Angel’s signature spectacle: levitations, vanish-and-reappear mega-set pieces, high-impact stunts, and precision sleight fused with lasers, flames, and wall-to-wall sound. The pacing is concert-style—quick scene changes, narrative vignettes, and recurring motifs that nod to Angel’s TV fame—while the room’s tech wraps the audience in the visuals.

Over 50+ illusions across a tight, high-energy 75 minutes
Immersive theater design (purpose-built lighting, video, pyro)
Iconic TV moments reimagined live with new twists

Book this showSeating guide: best seats for MINDFREAK
Most immersive: Center floor (Sections 101–102, first 10–15 rows)—maximum scale for pyro/LED reveals without losing sight of method
Best value: Front of 200-level (201/202 center)—eye-level sightlines with a little rake; excellent balance of price vs. impact
Laid-back/overview: 300-level center—panoramic view of full stage/video walls; great for families wanting space
Notes: Front few floor rows can mean more standing energy during hype moments; side extremes trade proximity for angle
Venue layout
The Criss Angel Theater is a wide, shallow proscenium with floor (100s), lower-raked terrace (200s), and balcony (300s). The design minimizes obstructions (no cocktail tables), favors center-line sightlines, and integrates speakers/LED into architecture so effects read cleanly from every tier.
