Magic Stick

Magic Stick shares 4140 Woodward Avenue with the other Majestic Theatre Center spaces in Midtown Detroit. Confirm that your ticket names Magic Stick rather than the street-level Majestic Theatre, since they are separate performance rooms.

A dedicated, secured parking lot is located directly behind the complex and is accessible via Alexandrine Street. Parking is typically free before 5pm and costs between five and twenty dollars per car after 5pm; the lot accepts cash only. Metered street parking is available on Woodward Avenue and surrounding side streets, though parking enforcement is active throughout the area. Additional parking can be found in a structure across from the venue on the west side of Woodward.

The Magic Stick occupies the second floor of the Majestic Theatre Center building. As a historic venue, it is only reachable via stairs, with no elevator or lift access currently available. This design distinguishes the Magic Stick from the other ground-level spaces in the complex, including the Majestic Theatre, Garden Bowl, and Sgt. Pepperoni's, all of which are located at street level with fully accessible amenities.

Contact [email protected] before selecting tickets if stairs present a difficulty or you need another accommodation. The complex’s general ADA-seating guidance does not remove the upstairs access limitation. Do not assume that a street-level accessible entrance provides a route into Magic Stick.

Tickets for Magic Stick shows can be purchased through the venue's official ticketing partner, AXS, which offers customer support in case of issues. Fee-free tickets are available for purchase in person at the Garden Bowl box office, located at the bowling counter, seven days a week from 11am to midnight. Tickets are also available at the door on the night of the event unless the show has sold out.

Age limits for Magic Stick events vary by show. As a general rule, shows with 7pm or 8pm door times are all ages, while shows with doors at 9pm are typically 18+ for club events. Guests should always check the specific event listing before purchasing tickets. Valid photo identification is required for all 18+ and 21+ events, as well as for alcohol purchases.

Once a ticket has been scanned and a guest enters the venue, re-entry is not permitted if they leave the building. However, guests may move back and forth into the Garden Bowl area within the same complex without losing access.

Small and medium-sized bags and purses are permitted within the size policy. Backpacks are prohibited, as are purses larger than 12 × 12 inches. Weapons and laser pointers are not allowed. Check the event’s instructions before bringing equipment or a larger personal item.

Sgt. Pepperoni's Pizzeria is located inside the Garden Bowl on the ground floor of the Majestic Theatre Center. Concertgoers attending Magic Stick shows are encouraged to visit Sgt. Pepperoni's for food and drink before or during their visit. The Garden Bowl and Sgt. Pepperoni's are open Sunday and Monday from 11am to midnight, and Tuesday through Saturday from 11am to 2am.

For those driving to the venue, be sure to bring cash for the secured parking lot, which does not accept card payments. Street parking requires attention to posted signage, as Detroit parking enforcement is active in the Midtown area. Arriving early can help secure a convenient parking spot, especially on weekends and concert nights when the complex is busiest.
