House of Illusion
Calle Espigó del Moll, Salou, Tarragona, 43840
Once the sun goes down on the beaches of Salou, head to the House of Illusion to catch its popular magic show. This fan favorite offers evening performances with theatrical magicians, family-friendly comedy, and light-hearted mind-reading acts. Opt for the earlier dinner show or the late evening slot for drinks and entertainment.
The basics
Each show begins with table-side magic tricks in the Houdini’s Attic lounge to warm up the audience before the theater doors open onto a candlelit interior for the main stage acts. Enjoy vaudeville-style comedy, magical illusions, mind reading, and sleight-of-hand tricks appropriate for all ages. Dinner theater packages pair the magical entertainment with an all-inclusive three-course meal served with wine, beer, and soft drinks; drinks packages include unlimited wine, beer, and soft drinks with the show.
Things to know before you go
There are three dinner packages, all available only for the early evening shows. The drinks package is available for any show time.
Discounted packages for children and kid-friendly tricks and illusions make this a great evening out for families.
Dinner is served in the Houdini’s Attic rooftop bar and restaurant above the theater before the show.
The theater and restaurant are accessible to wheelchairs and strollers.
How to get there
The House of Illusion lounge and theater is located in the center of the resort town of Salou along the main promenade. You can easily walk to the venue from the town’s beaches, harbor, train station, or downtown hotels. The nearest major city and airport is Barcellona, about two hours away by car or train.
When to get there
There are two show times: one earlier in the evening, including dinner, and a later performance that only comes with drinks. Performances are held from spring through fall; the show is always closed in the winter months and on Mondays all year round. The venue also hosts other themed performances according to a seasonal calendar.
