About the Show
Penn & Teller have been performing together for over 50 years and headlining at the Rio since 2001 — one of the longest Las Vegas residencies in history. They are also the hosts and executive producers of Penn & Teller: Fool Us on The CW, which means the 1,500+ magicians who’ve tried and failed to fool them on TV are essentially endorsing how hard their material is to crack.
The show mixes genuine world-class sleight of hand with sharp, subversive comedy and the duo’s signature trick of explaining exactly how an illusion works — and then doing it again, even more impossibly. Penn & Teller are known for staying after shows to meet fans, though availability varies by date.
Choose it when you want a genuine Vegas institution with real intellectual depth behind the comedy. Skip it if you need to be on the Strip, want a large production spectacle, or prefer straight theatrical magic without the deconstruction.

Who It’s For
Penn & Teller: Fool Us Fans
Seeing the people who’ve stumped 1,500+ magicians perform live is a different experience than almost any other show in Las Vegas.
Magic Enthusiasts
The combination of world-class technique, comedy, and philosophical commentary on the nature of illusion sets this apart from every other magic show in town.
Off-Strip Night Out
The Rio is a short ride from the Strip with free parking — and the off-Strip location means a more relaxed experience than a main casino showroom. Easy to pair with dinner at the Rio before the show.
