The Ultimate MAGIC MIKE Tribute Brunch

The Ultimate MAGIC MIKE Tribute Brunch takes over Canvas on a Friday night and turns it into a high-energy cabaret party. Rather than a quiet meal, expect bottomless cocktails, loud music and a stage full of male performers, all inspired by the films. The date is 6 November 2026, at one of Bournemouth's best-known loft bars.

About the event

The name is misleading: this happens in the evening, not over brunch. Billing promises roughly ninety minutes of bottomless cocktails alongside a high-energy male-performer cabaret, in a room geared towards a loud, sociable crowd. Hen parties, birthday groups and anyone after a big night out tend to enjoy it most. Canvas occupies the first and second floors of a listed early-1800s building on Poole Hill, a loft bar known for live acts, DJs and its award-winning bartenders, which keeps the crowd close to the stage. It's a strictly 18-plus event. Browse the Bournemouth events calendar for other things happening around the same dates.

What to expect

Entertainment is the clear focus here. Cocktails flow as part of the bottomless package within the advertised time window, the cabaret routine is choreographed to keep energy levels up, and the mood leans towards a party rather than a formal dinner. Your ticket tier shapes the experience, ranging from standard entry to bottomless-drinks packages and stage-front VIP booths with table service, so decide early whether you want to be right in the action or seated further back. The running order can shift between dates, so rely on the official listing for accurate set times.

Getting there and tickets

You'll find Canvas at 45 Poole Hill, BH2 5PW, on the western side of the town centre in the Soho Quarter. It's within easy walking distance of the rail and coach stations and the main bus corridors, and taxis operate late across town. Given this is an 18-plus night centred on bottomless cocktails, it makes sense to leave the car behind; anyone who does drive should use a town-centre car park and arrange a taxi or bus for the way home. Tickets are available through the venue's official channels and its authorised partners, with prices, timings and age rules confirmed there. Dates and booking are handled on the official Canvas events page, and our travel and transport guide covers trains, buses and parking for the journey.

Make a weekend of it

An evening event like this gives you a good reason to turn the trip into a full weekend. Arrive earlier in the day to walk the Lower Gardens or take in the seven miles of sandy beach before dusk, then book a table through our Bournemouth restaurant guide or check the roundup of where to eat in town. Nearby Westbourne also has independent bars and cafes within walking distance of Poole Hill. Compare Bournemouth hotels if you'd rather stay over than face a late journey home once the show finishes.

The Ultimate MAGIC MIKE Tribute Brunch good to know

Where does The Ultimate MAGIC MIKE Tribute Brunch take place?

It's held at Canvas, a loft bar and live lounge at 45 Poole Hill, Bournemouth BH2 5PW. The venue sits at the town centre's western edge in the Soho Quarter, within walking distance of the Triangle, the Lower Gardens and the seafront.

What time does the Magic Mike Tribute Brunch in Bournemouth start?

The event runs from 7.30pm to 1am on Friday 6 November 2026, with last entry at 8.30pm. Despite its name, this happens in the evening rather than at brunch time, so arrive early enough to get settled before the cabaret starts and the bottomless cocktails begin.

How do I check the stage times and running order?

Organisers set the performance schedule, and it can shift between dates, which is why the running order isn't published long in advance. Check doors, set times and any updates via the official Canvas listing or your booking confirmation a day or two before the night.

Is the event free or do I need a ticket?

A ticket is required, and the night tends to sell out, so it's better to book in advance rather than arrive on spec. Options range from standard entry to bottomless-cocktail packages and VIP booths beside the stage. The official listing confirms current prices and what each tier includes.

Is the Magic Mike Tribute Brunch family-friendly?

No, it isn't. The cabaret is strictly for over-18s, with adult themes and bottomless drinks that make it unsuitable for children. Families with young ones are better off looking at Bournemouth's daytime attractions and family days out instead.

How do I get to Canvas and where can I park?

Poole Hill is within walking distance of Bournemouth's rail and coach stations and the main bus routes. Those driving can find town-centre car parks close by, though given the cocktail-fuelled nature of the night, public transport or a taxi home is the smarter option.
