About the show
Dry British wit, deadpan crowd work, and genuinely baffling magic: Piff the Magic Dragon turns a 75-minute set into a fast, funny blur—peppered with call-backs, volunteer bits, and signature pet-partner moments made famous on America’s Got Talent and Fool Us. It’s a compact, joke-dense afternoon-or-evening option that still lands as a full Vegas headliner.
Highlights of the show
Comedy + magic hybrid that plays to both skeptics and families.
Audience participation—volunteers and playful roasting keep each night unique.
AGT favorite/Las Vegas headliner since 2015; multiple local awards and sold-out runs.

Most immersive: Front tables (closest to gags and sleights; highest interaction potential).
Best value: Mid-center tables/floor — typically priced like surrounding seats but with noticeably cleaner, eye-level views.
Laid-back & budget: Rear booths — comfortable sightlines, often the lowest rates; good if you’d rather not be picked.
