"6We had the pleasure of working with Leon and the Real Magic Productions team at the 2026 East Coast Radio House & Garden Show, and they were an absolute pleasure to work with.
Leon brought fantastic energy, professionalism and creativity to the show, and the performances were incredibly well received by our visitors. What stood out most was his ability to engage with audiences of all ages and create those unexpected moments of entertainment that really add to the overall event experience.
Leon is passionate about what he does, reliable and incredibly easy to work with. We loved having Real Magic Productions as part of the show and would happily recommend Leon and his team to anyone looking to bring something engaging, memorable and a little bit magical to their event.

Chocolate the magician
"Chocolate performs regularly at our restaurant in Melville. Tables that get him stay twice as long and spend three times as much. He's an atmosphere multiplier. We won't book anyone else."

⭐Reda: President, Cercle Magique de Paris
"Reda performed at our wedding in Deauville and was one of the highlights of the day. His close-up magic left our guests and ourselves completely amazed. People are still talking about his performance long after.
He was warm, professional and easy to work with from the first email to the last trick. Reda even stayed on well beyond his set to take photos with us and share a few more tricks.
If you want something truly special for your event, book Reda. You won’t regret it.
