Key Ring: The Official Magazine of the I.B.M. British Ring

Key Ring is the official monthly magazine of The International Brotherhood of Magicians (I.B.M.) British Ring Number 25, available in both printed and digital formats for all members. The editor welcomes contributions, including stories, reports, and articles that will engage our community.

For over eighty years, this publication was known as The Budget, a term referring to a small bag used by street performers to carry their props. Three years ago, we rebranded through a member-driven competition, leading to the selection of the name Key Ring. In the I.B.M., each local branch is referred to as a ring, and a key ring symbolizes the collection of essential articles and resources. Notably, we are the largest Ring within the I.B.M.

In addition to member-submitted tricks and reports on magical events across the UK, the magazine features personal and commercial advertisements, making it a vibrant resource for our members. We encourage all members to submit articles for consideration, fostering a collaborative spirit.

Key Ring plays a vital role in connecting our members and is included with the membership subscription.
