Does anyone know of any good shops in Edmonton? We are doing a roadtrip this summer and want to convince my wife to stop so I can spend some money!

It is a ONLINE ONLY Magic Shop. It does offer curbside pickup though.

"CURBSIDE PICKUPS ARE AVAILABLE FOR ORDERS OVER $50.00
Orders under $50.00 there is a $15 travel fee"

I have just heard from Brent that The Vanishing Rabbit will be completely shutting down (including online) very shortly. I am saddened to see this iconic store disappear, as it was the one remaining place for magicians up here...

The closure does feel downbeat. I pity the newcomers in years to come who miss out on that experience of entering a great magic store for the first time.

I don't think that I would have ever discovered or experienced the community side of magic had it not been for hanging out at Brent's shop. It's very sad to see so many of these brick and mortar shops disappearing.

I thought Brent’s emails said he was just going online? Not closing. He had already closed the physical shop during or shortly after the pandemic (something like that I thought).

He put up a post on social media announcing his retirement in the near future.
