Pop-Up Magazine is a live performance magazine. The live shows focus on breaking multimedia stories performed on stage by writers, radio producers, photographers, filmmakers, and musicians. The events are not live-streamed or recorded for later viewing.

Pop-Up Magazine events are currently produced two to three times a year and routinely sell out. The events usually contain an average of 12 short stories, with production running approximately 100 minutes.

Each story is designed specifically for a live format, often using unconventional media for journalism. Levels are performed alongside photographs, animations, illustrations, or film, and many are accompanied by an original score performed live by Magik*Magik Orchestra.
