Magic Shops in Ireland

18 February 2009 2,676 views 7 Comments Ian McCarthy

I am noticing a decent bit of search engine traffic that is coming here is from people looking for more information on magic shops in the country, so I thought I would address this directly.

There is only one magic shop that I know of in the Republic of Ireland, there may be another in Northern Ireland, but I really don’t know. The only magic shop in the country is ‘The Magic Shop’, which is owned by Paddy Clancy in Limerick. It is a small little costume/magic shop within walking distance of the town center, he does not have a huge range of stock, but it can be a wonderful place if you are either new to magic, or you need specific supplies (Sponges, Flash Paper etc). Paddy is happy to demonstrate anything that he has in stock, and he is a wonderfully plesant guy.

The details of the store are as follows.

The Magic Shop
6 Mallow Street
Limerick
086 2563681

    There’s a magic shop in Limerick
    With shiny wooden floors
    And torn and restored papers
    Covering the doors.
    But take a peek in the back room
    At the sparkling pretty sights,
    There’s cases and cases and cases
    Of unsold thumbtipped de-lites.

    I often go to the shop on Mallow street (when im in Ireland) and Pat Clancy is a very wise man. But any ideas on any other magic shops in the Munster area? And is there any Munster magicians specialising in close-up card magic?

    Sorry got off topic, Pat clancly got me into magic and the shop is great!
