We plan to organize a full night dedicated to the Street-Magic.
All conventioneers who decide to participate will compete in
a special game in the streets of Rimini. The public will choose its
preferred magician who will win the whole convention for free and
the reimbursement of the travel expenses.
- Theme Party:
Our experience in important magic events has learned to us that
the imagination and the social activities can make the difference:
we’d like to organize Theme Parties, where Magic is mixed up with
the entertainment.
- Web Contests:
- Web poll:
The World Championship of Magic can become the theme of virtual
magic games such as “Masters of Web”. The most preferred video
about a magic act or the most representative picture of the event
posted on the Facebook Fan Page of FISM 2015: the winner will have
a special discount on the convention’s fee or an extra entrance to the
Gala Dinner.
All conventioneers can vote for the best ever FISM champion of world or

PISA
Pisa is a city in Tuscany, Central Italy, on the right bank of the mouth of the River Arno on the
Tyrrhenian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Pisa.
Although Pisa is known worldwide for its leaning tower (the bell tower of the city’s cathedral),
the city of over 88,332 residents (around 200,000 with the metropolitan area) contains more
than 20 other historic churches, several palaces and various bridges across the River Arno.

Dear Sirs,
Italy has always intertwined its history with that illusionism. By the courts
of kings to the contemporary stage, the magic found in our country one of
its most public attention, as well as many talented and passionate.
For this reason I believe that the candidacy of Italy to an appointment as
important as the World Championship of Magic 2015 is a fundamental sign
as well as it would be to assign the event to our country. As a magician I
would be honored and as Italian I would be enthusiast.
Right now I guarantee my collaboration to create an event that will leave a
permanent mark. I will use all my experience to realize an event’s direction
that can connect all the activities in the programming and I will be honored
to perform during the Grand Gala of the convention, after a long time of
absence from the world magic conventions.

As late as 1954 the Comm. Bustelli drove as President of the Magicians Club, which happens in 1955,
the Comm Steno Schaffer as the new President of the Italian Magic Club then succeeded by Alberto Sitta

chaired the club for over 30 years, has given a great turn to CMI and Modern Magic that handled personally, until you get to over 900 members and assets of an organization of more than 90 conferences and

done under the banner of the magic that gives the MIC shine in the international arena. For these

of love for the Magic, that the MIC does not evade their responsibilities, exhorting and giving full support

INCOMING
We expect that the total incoming of the event will be around 1.352.000€. This amount is the sum
of the convention fee for the conventioneers, the dealers and the competitors.
We have calculated also that our event will receive about 300.000€ from the sponsors.

Coherently with the past editions of the FISM World Championships of Magic, we estimated that
the number of participants will be around 2500.
However, we consider that between the participants there will be about 400 people who will have
the convention for free: the Presidium Members and their spouses, the Jury and the Jury Staff, the
Honorary President, the Artists and their partners, the Representatives
of the sponsoring companies. For this reasons we calculated
that the number of paying participants will be 2100€.

competitors in 50€. For the conventioneers the price starts at 340€ for all participants under
years 18 - to favour the Young Magicians - and 400€ for the other participants.
During the preparatory three years, the tariff will go up from €400 at 650€.
Since we can’t preview now how many people will apply for registration with the starting
price, we calculate the incoming as if all conventioneers will register with the average
tarif of 450€.
2!G5IGHC!G(9II(p(KI;)I7/
The convention fee with the dealers will be differentiate depending on the dimensions of the
stand that will choose. The starting price will be 750€ for a 2m stand plus one registration and
1200€ for a 5m stand plus one registration. We calculated a 75% of requests of 2m stands and
a 25% of requests of 5m stands. During the preparatory three years both the 2m stand’s tariff
and the 5m stand’s tariff will go up.

During the last months we have already met the most important Italian and International companies, the local and national authorities and the bank foundations who can be interested in

Venice is a city in northeast Italy sited on a group of

bridges.
It is located in the marshy Venetian Lagoon which
stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of

“The Surgeon’s House” was inaugurated on 7 December 2007. The important archaeological
complex, situated in the heart of the town centre, was discovered in 1989 and presented to the
city of Rimini after 18 years of excavation and conservation activities.
The archaeological area covering more than 700 sqm includes many different building elements,
among which the most interesting is the so-called Surgeon’s House (Domus) . This was a residential
building of the Roman period, built during the second half of the 2nd century A.D.

The two-storey Surgeon’s House, was situated directly on the Adriatic coast, which at that time,
was over 1 km further inland than it is today.
The large number of unearthed remains and mosaics are of great interest and all well
preserved. The most extraordinary discovery is the collection of 150 surgical instruments.
They leave us no doubt as to the profession of the owner: a doctor.
