About MINDFREAK
Criss Angel has been the most-watched magician in television history, with billions of online views across his A&E series and specials. MINDFREAK takes everything he built over those years and delivers it live for the first time — 75+ illusions in 75 minutes inside the Criss Angel Theater, a purpose-built venue on the mezzanine level of Planet Hollywood that was designed specifically for this production. The theater's design, the lighting grid, the pyrotechnics systems, and the video infrastructure were all engineered around the show. That's not a standard showroom with a performer dropped in — it's a machine built to do one thing.

Spike's Take
$117 for 75 illusions in a theater built to run them at scale. The 200 zone is the Sidekick Pick — mid-house sections 201, 202, and 203 give you the full scope of the production: close enough to watch the illusions clearly, far enough to take in the scale of the lighting and staging. This is the show where the whole room is part of the experience.
The production integrates more sophisticated lighting, video, pyro, and sound technology than most major concert tours. The Las Vegas Sun named it the #1 magic show of all time. Criss Angel's signature levitation — the "flying" illusion that has been performed more than any other in his career — was awarded the greatest illusion of all time. The show also incorporates illusions that premiered on his television series and specials, now performed live in front of an audience for the first time. The combination of scale, technology, and the genuine danger of several illusions makes this a fundamentally different product than a standard Las Vegas magic show.

What to Expect
⚡ Concert-Scale Production
The Criss Angel Theater was built specifically for MINDFREAK — the lighting, pyrotechnics, video systems, and sound infrastructure were engineered around this show. What you're watching is more technically complex than most major touring concerts. The production is doing significant work on every illusion, and the scale of what's happening is part of what makes the experience distinct.
🎩 75+ Illusions in 75 Minutes
The show moves at a relentless pace — 75 illusions in 75 minutes means roughly one per minute, which is not a format that has a lot of room for filler. The levitation that earned the "greatest illusion of all time" designation runs live. Many illusions that debuted on his A&E television series are performed live in this venue for the first time.
🎭 Immersive Theater Experience
This is not a standard showroom magic show. MINDFREAK is a fully immersive production — the audience is inside the experience, not watching it from a distance. The theater's design and the production's scale make the room itself part of the show. Reviews divide between those who find this extraordinary and those who want more pure magic — knowing that going in sets expectations correctly.
🚫 No Cameras or Recording
The use of cameras and audio/video devices are strictly prohibited during the show. This is enforced strictly. Put the phone away when you take your seat. Security monitors the audience during the performance. The show is worth actually watching — you're not going to capture it on a phone screen anyway.

⭐ Sidekick Pick
The front arc of the Criss Angel Theater — three sections running closest to the stage. Section 102 sits center-front, 101 and 103 angle outward on the right and left sides. At this proximity you're inside many of the illusions rather than watching them from a distance. For a show where some illusions happen at the front of the stage or interact directly with audience members, 100 zone is the most immersive placement in the theater. If the front-row energy of a production at this scale is what you're after, this is the section.
The mid-house arc — sections 201, 202, and 203 running across the center of the theater. The Sidekick Pick for MINDFREAK. The 200 zone gives you the optimal angle to experience the full scope of what the production is doing: close enough to watch every illusion clearly, far enough to take in the scale of the lighting rigs, pyrotechnics, and video surfaces that make this show what it is. For a production where the room itself is part of the experience, mid-house is the position that lets you see everything at once. This is where Spike sits.
The rear arc of the theater — five sections running across the back. From this position the full scale of the production is most visible: the lighting grid, the full video surfaces, the entire stage picture. Some guests prefer the rear sections specifically for this reason — MINDFREAK was designed to be consumed at a distance as much as up close. The tradeoff is proximity to individual illusions, which are harder to read in detail from sections 301–305. For a show this large, the rear sections are a legitimate choice and not a compromise seat.
Frequently Asked
The 200 zone is the Sidekick Pick. Mid-house sections 201, 202, and 203 give you the optimal balance for this particular show — close enough to watch every illusion clearly, far enough to see the full scope of the production including the lighting, pyrotechnics, and video that make MINDFREAK what it is. The 100 zone puts you closest to the stage and is the right call if you want the most immersive, front-of-house experience. The 300 zone gives you the widest view of the production's scale and is a legitimate choice for a show designed to be experienced at a distance as much as up close.
Both, and it's worth knowing that before you go. MINDFREAK is a fully immersive illusion spectacular with concert-level production: pyrotechnics, theatrical lighting, video projections, and a purpose-built theater engineered around the show. Reviews divide fairly predictably between guests who find the production extraordinary and guests who wanted more pure stand-alone magic with less spectacle. If you're drawn to the scale and immersive experience, this show delivers it. If you're coming specifically for close-up or intimate sleight-of-hand magic, this is a different format.
No. The use of cameras and audio/video devices are strictly prohibited during the show. This is enforced — security monitors the audience throughout the performance. Put the phone away when you take your seat and leave it there. You'll get more out of the show for it.
Ages 10 and older are recommended due to mature content. This is a recommendation, not a hard restriction. Everyone must have a ticket to enter. Guests 18 and under must be accompanied by an adult. The show includes death-defying stunts and some dramatic visual content that may not be appropriate for younger children.
The Criss Angel Theater is located on the mezzanine level of Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino at 3667 S Las Vegas Blvd. Enter through Planet Hollywood and follow the signs — the theater has a distinctive futuristic design and a large sign that makes it easy to identify. The mezzanine level means you'll take an escalator or elevator up from the casino floor. Arrive at least 20 minutes before showtime to allow time to navigate the property and get to your seat.
