Magic Mirrors Spiegeltent is a mirrored tent in the style of the Famous Spiegeltent. Entering the Magic Mirrors Spiegeltent feels like taking a step back to a far more indulgent, debaucherous time!
One of the Festival’s favourite pop-up venues, the Magic Mirrors Spiegeltent plays host to a range of performances of music and cabaret performances during the day and on into the night.
Magic Mirrors Spiegeltent and bar area are licensed. Under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
Priority Entry tickets allow patrons first entry into the venue. Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the performance to ensure early access is possible.
All ticket holders receive a wristband on arrival. This holds your place for timed entry to general admission seating. Listen/watch out for when your colour is called and enjoy your pre-show experience.
