Let's all go to Appleton next year!

It's not too early to start making plans for 2026 and Houdini's 100th. Here's an event to seriously consider. The Society of American Magicians (SAM) will hold its annual convention in Appleton, Wisconsin, July 1-4, 2026. And look who's going to be speaking! I'm already cooking up ideas on how to make this one extra special.

You're invited to return to where the magic began. Join The Society of American Magicians in Appleton, WI, Houdini's childhood home, for a once-in-a-century gathering to honor the world's most legendary magician. Celebrate Houdini's life, artistry, and enduring impact on the art of magic, 100 years after his passing. 

July 1-4, 2026 

HOUDINI 100 Years Later: Honoring the Legacy

I think it would be great to gather as many Houdini nuts as possible for this one. Hey, it's Appleton, it's the SAM, and it's the 100th! Hope to see you there.
