Magic and jokes hit fast in Las Vegas. This comedy magic show is a fun fit because Farrell Dillon mixes upbeat humor with interactive stage moments, and the vibe stays family-friendly (age 5+) without getting mean. One thing to consider, if you really hate being picked for tricks, is that the show invites audience participation, so expect a few calls to the front.

You’ll catch the action at Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club in the Promenade at the Linq, and you get a mobile ticket that makes entry easy. The full experience runs about 1 hour 15 minutes, so it is ideal if you want something entertaining that does not swallow your whole evening, though it is not a long, slow evening event.

Farrell Dillon and Jimmy Kimmel’s Club: The Real Experience

Farrell Dillon Comedy Magic at Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Farrell Dillon and Jimmy Kimmel’s Club: The Real Experience
This is the kind of Las Vegas show that works on multiple levels at once: you get comedy, you get magic, and you get enough structure that you are not sitting around waiting forever. Farrell Dillon runs the show like he is hanging out with the audience, cracking jokes while he performs, rather than going full serious magician mode. You get the sense that he is building laughs and then using that energy to sell the trick.

The other big win is where it happens. Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club sits right in the Promenade at the Linq, so you are not stuck in a far-away part of the Strip. Even if you only have a limited evening plan, you can fit this in, then still walk around after for a change of pace.

If you come expecting a quiet, strictly magic-only performance, you might find it more playful than you imagined. Since people can be called up, the show has an active, participatory feel. That is a deal-breaker for some folks, but for most it is the best part.

Value and Price: What $29.85 Buys You

Farrell Dillon Comedy Magic at Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Value and Price: What $29.85 Buys You
At $29.85 per person, this is priced for straightforward value rather than luxury packaging. You are paying for a real on-stage comedy-magic performance, plus admission to the comedy-club experience. The ticket includes fees and taxes, which matters in Las Vegas where add-ons can change the final number fast.

The timing also helps the value story. At about 1 hour 15 minutes, you can treat it like a focused evening plan. That is great if you have dinner reservations, a show after, or you just want to avoid committing to a long evening with big time gaps.

You do need to budget slightly around the edges. Beverages are available for purchase, but they are not included. Parking or valet fees also are not included, so if you plan to drive, factor that in before you decide.

Meeting at 4:00 pm and Using the LINQ Location Smartly

Your start time is 4:00 pm, and the experience centers on Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club at the Promenade at the Linq. This timing can work well because you avoid the late-night scramble when everything feels crowded and exhausting. You also get your show done while you still have energy for a short walk outside.

I like this part for practical reasons. The LINQ promenade area is made for easy strolling. You can keep it simple: arrive near the club area, get seated, enjoy the show, and then use the extra time to wander nearby without having to plan a second mode of transport.

Because the show is about 45 minutes for Farrell Dillon, then you also have a comedy-club slot, it pays to arrive with a little buffer. The show is known for starting on time, so you do not want to lose your seat time waiting outside.

Stop 1: Farrell Dillon’s Comedy Magic Show at Jimmy Kimmel’s

The main event is Farrell Dillon’s comedy magic show, running about 45 minutes with your admission ticket included. This is not just random trick after random trick. It is comedy first, magic second, then comedy again, so the pacing stays light.

One reason this show earns strong ratings is the “interactive but not awkward” tone. Audience members may get called up for participation, but the humor aims to include rather than humiliate. From the bits people describe, Farrell seems to make fun of himself and the situation, then steers the moment back into something you can laugh at even if you are not on stage.

Expect big, visual moments. People talk about a surfing straight jacket, colored paint chips and stools, and a layered playing-card setup that includes a $100 bill placed in the middle layer. Those details are the kind of props-and-motion magic that plays well in a club setting, where you can see faces clearly and you can feel the energy when something impossible happens.

Also, pay attention to the “characters” in the act. Farrell Dillon performs alongside his wife, Amanda, and the show includes a pug named Eisley. If you like when a performance has heart and personality, that added element can make the tricks feel more like an event and less like a magic checklist.

What I’d love for you to notice: how quickly the humor resets after a trick lands. It is the difference between watching magic and enjoying an evening where you are laughing most of the time.

Stop 2: The Comedy Club Slot and How the Lineup Works

Farrell Dillon Comedy Magic at Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Stop 2: The Comedy Club Slot and How the Lineup Works
After the magic, your ticket covers admission within Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club, and there is typically a nationally known touring comedian on the bill. The exact comedian can change, but the promise is consistency in quality, not a specific one-person lineup.

You can think of this part as the comedy “second course.” It is shorter, around 10 minutes on the schedule you’re following, so it keeps the evening from dragging. If you love stand-up, it is a bonus. If you came for the magic, it still works because the focus stays on jokes and audience energy rather than switching into something unrelated.

One practical note: because the lineup can change, you should not plan your expectations around a specific performer. Plan around the format instead: comedy club atmosphere, laughs, and time that stays compact.

Stop 3: LINQ Promenade Time for a Quick Pre or Post-Show Walk

You get about 20 minutes around the LINQ Promenade with admission for the experience and time that can be used on your own. This is not a full sightseeing block, but it is enough to do something satisfying.

I like using this window for a simple reset. If you treat the show as your anchor, you can walk off any pre-show nerves, grab a snack nearby, or just enjoy the lights and people-watching while it is still early evening.

It also helps if your group splits interests. One person wants to get a quick photo near the promenade, another wants to keep moving, and everyone still lands back at the club area without stress.

What the Audience Participation Really Means (And How to Handle It)

This show is described as interactive, including the possibility of being called onto the stage. The good news is that the tone is described as fun and not embarrassing. That matters because some magic shows use intimidation or humiliation as a shortcut to laughs.

Still, you should go in with awareness. If you hate public speaking or you feel strongly uncomfortable with attention, you might prefer a more strictly spectator-focused show. If you are okay with being part of a playful crowd moment, this can be the kind of memory that sticks.

A smart strategy: watch what happens with other participants first. You can learn the vibe quickly and decide whether you feel comfortable laughing along or play it extra low-key if you prefer not to volunteer. Either way, you can enjoy the tricks from your seat.

Duration and Scheduling: Why This Works for Real Travel Days

Farrell Dillon Comedy Magic at Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Duration and Scheduling: Why This Works for Real Travel Days
The total experience runs about 1 hour 15 minutes, and that short window is a big part of why it is easy to fit. In Las Vegas, time is often the real luxury. Short shows let you keep control of your evening instead of letting the city’s chaos decide for you.

This format also pairs well with other plans. Do it before dinner if you want dinner later when it is less crowded, or do it as your early evening activity so you still have time for one more walk or stop after. Because it is family-friendly, it also works better than some late-night shows for mixed-age groups.

The “on time” factor helps too. People mention it starts on time, and that alone can make the difference between a smooth evening and a stressful one when you’re traveling.

Best for Families, Groups, and First-Time Vegas Show Lovers

This is a strong pick if you want a comedy-magic experience that feels approachable. The show is family-friendly, with an age minimum of 5+, and the humor is described as playful rather than mean.

It also fits:

  • Families who want stage energy without heavy adult content
  • Couples who want a fun, light show with big visual moments
  • Groups who want something interactive but not uncomfortable

If your group includes someone who really dislikes stand-up-style pacing or being included in the audience bits, you might want to think carefully. The show leans into audience connection, and the club atmosphere is built for that.

Practical Tips Before You Go

A few things can make your experience smoother without overcomplicating it:

  • Bring the mobile ticket you booked with, since entry uses a mobile ticket format
  • Plan for drinks to be purchased on site, since beverages are not included
  • If you drive, budget for parking or valet fees because those are not included

Also, note that your ticket category is selected when you book. Since seating can affect your view in a club setting, it is worth choosing the category you feel best about when you have the chance.

Should You Book Farrell Dillon Comedy Magic at Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club?

I think you should book this if you want a compact Las Vegas night that mixes comedy and magic with a friendly, family-forward tone. The combination of Farrell Dillon’s upbeat delivery, the interactive style, and memorable visual props like the straight jacket bit and the layered card moment makes it feel like more than just a standard magic show.

Book it with a clear mindset if you are fine with audience interaction. If you want zero chance of being part of the action, you may prefer something more strictly spectator-focused.

If you do book, you are getting a well-timed show at a real comedy club address in the LINQ area, with admission and fees handled up front and a total runtime that respects your schedule.
