- Copperfield’s 25-year residency officially ends April 30, 2026.
- The announcement follows the Jan 30, 2026, release of DOJ files linking him to Epstein.
- Copperfield is teasing a “spectacular” new project as his next act
After performing at the MGM Grand for more than 25 years, David Copperfield is closing the curtain on his residency. His final performance will be on April 30, 2026. In an official statement released Thursday night by MGM Resorts and Copperfield simultaneously, it was stressed that the magician is the one choosing to sever the lucrative relationship.
“We thank David and his exceptional team for the incredible energy they’ve consistently delivered with this larger-than-life production,” said Mike Neubecker, President & COO of MGM Grand, in the press release. “David has fascinated audiences at MGM Grand for more than 25 years, and we wish him every success as he embarks on the next chapter of his journey.”
While the nature of that next chapter remains a mystery, Copperfield took to X to double down on the message that the departure was his choice—even though the move was sudden enough to trigger automatic refunds for tickets purchased past the April 30 cutoff.
“I’m excited to announce what’s next soon thereafter,” Copperfield’s statement read. “It’s the largest project I’ve ever tackled, and the most challenging, too.” He later added that he plans for the new project to be “something spectacular.”
This was not, in official terms, a case of MGM Resorts severing the relationship over the scrutiny the company has faced regarding Copperfield’s history. Nevertheless, it’s impossible to ignore the timing of this separation — coming just five weeks after the Department of Justice released a massive cache of internal files on January 30, 2026.
Among those documents was a 2007 FBI memo alleging a “very close relationship” between Copperfield and Jeffrey Epstein — an allegation Copperfield’s legal team has consistently and vigorously denied.
Copperfield has not been charged with any crime and denies any wrongdoing with regard to the notorious child molester. His lawyers have repeatedly stated that he and Epstein were “at most, acquaintances.”
