The close-up show was TREMENDOUS! There was something similar about all our performers?! Oh yeah...they all were freaking incredible!
Such an amazing opening night this year. Harrison Lampert and Magic in Heels with Kayla Drescher workshops were incredible. We hear the jam sessions lasted until 3:30 in the morning with a surprise visit by the Wapper Snapper? Please confirm if you saw this amazing routine!!
Day 2: Registration opens at 815. We can't wait to see all our awesome friends.
NEMCON 42 is this weekend!!! We cannot wait for friends, new & old, to come together for 2 days & share magic, mirth and mayhem! We are SO PROUD & HONORED to have Ran'D Shine performing & lecturing.

Hello everyone!
I just wanted to give a thank you to everyone for supporting our annual auction at NEMCON to support the Thomas R Prete Memorial Scholarship for the Arts.
Since 2009, thanks to your generosity, we have given away over 20 scholarships to worthy graduating High School Seniors.
This year, through your bids and donations, we have raised over $800!
Thank you again…and see you next year!
PS. If you’re clearing stuff out that you’d like to donate to the auction…let me know…I’m starting tomorrow to prep for next year! 😂😂
Mike Gagne
Auction Chairman.
A longer post is coming but we just wanted to say THANK YOU! This was one of the greatest NEMCON's we can remember. We had so much fun with all our friends.
Safe travels to everyone getting home and of course...
SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!
We are only 2 weeks away from NEMCON 41!
Another featured performer at this years convention is our friend from Atlanta Kyle Littleton! From being on Penn & Teller Fool Us to his incredible releases to the magic community (No Sense, Giraffe Switch, 400 Lux and more) Kyle has accomplished so much. But the future will hold more amazing releases as this past year Kyle released his first book Shattered Porcelain.
Come meet and annoy Kyle and all our performers at this years NEMCON

Vanishing Inc. team member Kyle Littleton on Penn & Teller Fool Us!
The entire crew/members of NEMCON and S.A.M. 127 would like to send our deepest condolences to the friends & family of Scott Alexander. We are all so saddened to hear of Scott's passing. He was an incredible talent and friend to so many. We will always appreciate his performances and lectures as a guest at NEMCON.
NEMCON 41 is so excited to have performing and lecturing, Stuart Mcdonald. Stuart was supposed to be with us at 2 different NEMCON's, but because of that stupid pandemic we had to move things around. But finally, Stuart is bringing his award winning act to CT.
Stuart is a P&T Fooler, IBM/SAM 1st Place winner, FISM North America Winner and so much more. Come see Stuart and his amazing blend of manipulation, magic and mayhem at NEMCON 41

NEMCON 41 Is back and bigger than ever. We have 2 Friday night events by Penn & Teller Fool Us alumni.
Blaise Serra is the future of magic. Just ask Penn Jillete. With amazing card skills, an eye for visual magic and a stage presence far beyond his years it's no wonder Blaise has been a consultant for big names in magic, featured performer at Speakeasy Magick and a sought after performer by TV and theaters around the world.
Blaise has lectured at Blackpool and now comes back to his home state of CT with a special Friday night lecture you will not want to miss.
