Vanishing Inc, run by Josh Jay and Andi Gladwin, has quickly become one of the premiere names in not only selling magic but featuring great magic. The company hosts some of the marquee conventions running today like Magifest and The Session which bring in some of the biggest names in magic to give you hands-on teaching experience. One of the best features of any magic convention comes within the in between time of each lecture and event where you’re able to jam with like minded performers.
This can be a daunting task for anyone new to the magic scene, especially if you’ve never been to a convention before. Inserting yourself into a group dynamic can prove difficult and can turn many people off from joining conversations they could massively benefit from being a part of. In a new addition, Magifest and The Session are introducing Basecamp to ease in first-time attendees at the 2024 conventions.
Before we get into the nitty gritty of what Basecamp is, it’s important to note that this feature is completely free of charge and open to all attendees. Included under the Basecamp umbrella is a welcome event where you’ll be able to meet with fellow magicians and throughout the convention you’ll have access to specially marked jam session tables.
