The 2026 entertainment lineup combines magic, mentalism, juggling, comedy and audience participation. You can settle in for a stage show, become part of the act or come across a performer while exploring the park.

Here are two performers you will want to look for during your visit:

Can someone pull a thought from your mind? How much can two people remember? And how did they do that right in front of you?

Dave and Veronica of Pink Tie Magic will keep you asking those questions when they make their Great Pumpkin LumiNights debut at Lakeside Showplace. Fresh from performances in Las Vegas, the duo brings together magic, mentalism, comedy and audience interaction in one fast-paced show.

You may see them seemingly pluck thoughts from audience members’ minds, put their memories to the test and perform magic designed to keep you guessing. Dave and Veronica describe their style as “a little bit prom night, a little bit Vegas,” so you can expect a show with plenty of personality alongside the surprises.

Pink Tie Magic is new to Great Pumpkin LumiNights in 2026. If you like sharp comedy, playful audience participation and a little friendly mind reading, add a stop at Lakeside Showplace to your evening.

You do not need to know what a 20-cigar-box juggling act looks like before the show. Just Larry will take care of that.

Back by popular demand, Just Larry combines juggling, sleight of hand, comedy and audience participation in a performance built to keep you watching and laughing. His career has taken him around the world through arena circuses, theatrical Cirques, traditional American big tops, film and television.

More than 12 million viewers watched Just Larry perform his signature 20-cigar-box juggling act on NBC’s America’s Got Talent. His television credits also include The Tonight Show, Comedy Central and As the World Turns.

Those credits explain where he has been, but the best part of his show is what happens in the moment. Every audience is different, and you may find yourself doing more than watching from your seat.

Not every performance stays on a stage. During Great Pumpkin LumiNights, strolling entertainers bring surprise performances to locations throughout Wild Adventures.

That means you may come across live entertainment while making your way to the next glowing display, ride or Pumpkin Spice Festival food stop. Keep an eye out as you explore. Part of the fun is not knowing exactly where a performer may appear next.

The Wild Adventures Mobile App is super helpful for live entertainment! You can see showtimes and set push notifications up to remind you of a specific showtime you don't want to miss.

Performance times and locations may vary by date. Check the park schedule during your visit so you can plan around the shows you most want to see. It also helps to arrive early for scheduled performances, especially if you want a good view or hope to take part in the audience interaction.

You do not have to choose between the shows and the rest of Great Pumpkin LumiNights. Start with rides and attractions, catch a performance, grab something from the festival menu and return to the glowing displays after dark. The entertainment is spread throughout the evening, so it can become part of your route through the park instead of pulling you away from the rest of the event.

Check the Wild Adventures operating calendar for event dates and park hours, then choose your admission and plan your night of pumpkins, lights and live entertainment. Be sure to grab your 2027 Season Pass for as low as $89.99!
