If you've watched America's Got Talent for a while, you probably know Mat Franco's name. He made history as the first magician ever to win the show. For more than 11 years he has headlined his Las Vegas residency, "Magic Reinvented Nightly," at The LINQ Hotel + Casino. That's a long time on one stage, and it tells you how well his kind of magic holds up night after night.
For the AGT 2026 Finale, Franco came back to the show where he won, and this time he joined forces with Geno Ploeger for a magic act on the biggest night of the season. Two performers share the spotlight here, and the video lets you see what they built together.
Franco is also filming his first Netflix special right now, which will take his signature style of magic to audiences around the world. Until that's out, this Finale performance is a good chance to catch him on America's biggest stage again.
This season's judges are Mel B, Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel and Sofía Vergara, and Terry Crews is the host. Grab your coffee, press play and watch it for yourself.
