Midwest Magic Jubilee

Midwest Magic Jubilee is an annual magic convention held in Missouri.

The Jubilee was founded in 1956, by the Society of American Magicians(S.A.M.), (Assembly 8 of St. Louis) and the International Brotherhood of Magicians(I.B.M.), (Ring One St. Louis). It originally switched locations each year from St. Louis to Kansas City, though currently its permanent home is in St. Louis, which is also the headquarters both S.A.M.'s (Assembly 8) and I.B.M.'s (Ring One).
