Fun Freetime - Tricks, Treats and Magic: WonderWorks Orlando Brings a Spooktacular Twist to Halloween

Spooky season is upon us, and families will want to add a visit to The Outta Control Spooktacular Magic Dinner Show to their fall line up to add some magic and fun to the month of October. Located inside WonderWorks Orlando on International Drive, this special version of Orlando’s longest-running dinner show is returning for the 2026 Halloween season! Gather your coven and plan an evening at the show that’s sure to be one of Orlando’s fall favorites. Catch nightly performances from October 5-31, 2026 at 6 pm, with additional shows every Friday and Saturday at 8 pm.

“Nobody does Halloween like Orlando, so we’re thrilled to add a unique, family-friendly entertainment experience into the mix of things to do! Be sure to carve out some time to see this festive overlay of our popular magic show,” said Brian Wayne, general manager at WonderWorks Orlando.

The Outta Control Spooktacular Magic Dinner Show gives families an opportunity to fall into a magical evening at a top-tier Orlando attraction. The Spooktacular is a new, special version of the upside-down house’s popular magic show, taking on a fall harvest feel that will be sure to get everyone in the Halloween spirit. It will feature candy-based magic, mystical mind reading, costumed characters, and more. There will be plenty of fun for all ages, and a friendly spirit may even appear to the audience.

The show stars resident magician Phillip Kaiser performing five nights per week, with ghoulish guest magicians being showcased throughout the rest of the week. Each magician will perform their own mystical magic tricks, making each show a unique experience. Audiences will be able to dine on unlimited cheese and pepperoni pizza, house salad, and soda, plus a special, delicious dessert created for monsters of all ages.

Those ages 21 and above can add some fall flavor to their meal, with several specialty cocktails available for purchase. The special seasonal drinks include the Cinnamon Harvest, made with cranberry juice, orange juice, ginger beer, and a splash of cinnamon Jose Cuervo, or the Apple Orchard Mule, which consists of refreshing apple cider, ginger beer, and Tennessee Apple Whiskey.

The frightfully fun evening gives guests a spooktacular place to go all dressed up, because audiences are encouraged to attend in costume or themed attire to add to the magic of the season. Everyone who attends dressed in costume will be entered into a special prize raffle, with a winner being selected at the end of the Halloween season. Tickets for The Outta Control Spooktacular Magic Dinner Show start at $27.99, plus tax, and often sell out. Tickets can be easily reserved online now.

“We’ve got plenty of tricks and treats up our sleeves this Halloween season!” said Phillip Kaiser, resident magician at The Outta Control Magic Dinner Show. “This spooktacular show will be a blend of my best themed tricks to thrill guests of all ages.”

The show is sure to inspire young audience members to become future magicians, so stop in the Shop of Wonders to take home a piece of the magic. There is a full section of individual magic tricks and full magic kits to wow friends and family. The gift shop will also include special “Think Pink” t-shirts to recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, and limited-time-offered Route 66 t-shirts to commemorate the iconic highway’s 100th anniversary in November.
