Key Ring Magazine 2023 (Issues 1-12)
Key Ring is the official glossy magazine of The International Brotherhood of Magicians (I.B.M.) British Ring Number 25, featuring 32 pages of engaging content delivered monthly to all members in print or via email. The editor welcomes contributions, including stories, reports, and articles that resonate with our community.
For over eighty years, the magazine was known as The Budget, referring to a small bag used by street performers to carry their props. Three years ago, we rebranded through a member-driven competition, resulting in the name Key Ring. Each branch of the I.B.M. is called a ring, and just like a key ring holds keys together, our magazine connects various articles and insights. As the largest Ring in the I.B.M., we take pride in our new identity.
In addition to member-submitted tricks, the magazine features reports on magical events across the UK and offers space for personal and commercial advertisements, making it an exciting resource for our members. We encourage all members to submit articles for consideration, fostering a sense of community.
Included in the membership subscription, the magazine plays a vital role in uniting our members.
