ILLUSIONS

ILLUSIONS is a magic festival in Horsens, held during the school autumn break in week 42. There are not many magic festivals that can match the caliber and size of ILLUSIONS, making it one of Europe's leading festivals in its genre.

Lose touch with reality for a moment

ILLUSIONS offers a series of enchanting events with carefully selected artists and magicians, presenting everything from art installations to magic school. They will create wonder and astonishment with illusions and optical illusions – their magic tricks and sleight of hand will make you laugh and marvel – and perhaps, if you're lucky, they will make you lose touch with reality for just a brief moment.

 

A touch of magic to Horsens' DNA

For an entire week, the streets and alleys of Horsens will be transformed into a magical arena where anything can happen. You can find performances in the city’s venues, at restaurants, right on the pedestrian street, or in other unexpected places.

The festival's goal is to engage as many different audiences as possible and to spark, or rekindle, their enthusiasm for magic and whimsical play.

 

Mark week 42 in your calendar

ILLUSIONS was first held in 2022 and will be a recurring autumn break event going forward – so mark week 42 in your calendar and fill your autumn break with wondrous magic and enchanting experiences.

Most events associated with ILLUSIONS will be free, but some performances may require tickets.
