Photo of The Magic of Carl Michael The Magic of Carl Michael "We've had Carl Michael at 8 events already in 2023 !! Professional, educated, witty , and the most incredible mentalism and close up magic ever !! His cutting edge style and presentation leave people amazed" Based in Charleston, South Carolina RENEE THOMPSON - Corporate Event Photo of Mentalism Beyond Belief Mentalism Beyond Belief "I needed some exciting unique entertainment for a private (40 guests) customer dinner party and WOW did I find it!!! Not only did David BLOW PEOPLES MINDS! (how does he do that??!!!) he was extremely responsive and took his time to get to know our company and business to ensure our objectives were met (OBJECTIVE = UNFORGETABLE). I highly, highly recommend David for your next business or personal (amaze your friends and family!!) entertainment. If there were more than 5 stars I would give them to David! BRAVO DAVID, THANK YOU FOR GIVING OUR GUESTS A NIGHT TO REMEMBER!!" Based in Jacksonville, Florida (197 miles from Charleston) Alicia Caddy - NGA911 Photo of Magician - The Amazing Ziggy Magician - The Amazing Ziggy "We hired Aaron/The Amazing Ziggy to perform a magic show during our Victorian Christmas event in 2017. Working with him was a wonderful experience- he’s professional, courteous, and extremely talented. We heard nothing but positive feedback from the event goers who were captivated as they watched him perform magic tricks unlike anything they’d ever seen! I would highly recommend his services, especially if you’re looking for something out of the box and fun." Based in Griffin, Georgia (253 miles from Charleston) 1st May 2026 Sarah Turner - City of Thomasville events director Photo of Motivational Speaker, and Mentalist Giani Motivational Speaker, and Mentalist Giani "AMAZING! Everyone is still talking about how awesome Giani is! He hung around after and continued to entertain everyone. This was my daughter's college graduation party and everyone was amazed, entertained, and still trying to figure everything out! Of course, we would have him back." Based in Orlando, Florida (305 miles from Charleston) Laura W. - Graduation Photo of Matt Durham Magic Matt Durham Magic "Just what we needed! We had an expo booth for a large software conference in Orlando and we wanted something different. Matt worked the floor like a pro. His presence was so natural and it livened up an event that's mostly for accountants and finance people. There were concerns that having a magician would come across as gimicky...but honestly his tricks were pure entertainment that drew laughs from atttendees. People even stayed to learn about our company and engage with the sales team after. Would recommend for similar events." Based in Winter Garden, Florida (307 miles from Charleston) Shyran T. - Trade Show Event Photo of Entertainment of Brandon Smith Entertainment of Brandon Smith "Absolutely AMAZING! Brandon worked the crowd and kept everyone entertained. We had a corporate event for about 600 people and he interacted with the majority of them with all positive feedback. One thing that really stuck out was that he remembered people who had seen tricks so he changed them throughout the night. Definitely recommend!" Based in Melbourne, Florida (327 miles from Charleston) 21st September 2026 Brandice Acree - Allstate Benefits

Frequently asked questions

Hiring illusionists typically costs between $130 and $1,350+, with an average of $550. The price depends on the performer's experience, show duration and the scale of the illusions. Large-scale stage illusions with elaborate props and equipment tend to cost significantly more than smaller-format performances.

The illusionists specialise in large-scale visual illusions such as making people appear or vanish, levitation, escape acts and other grand effects. While close-up magicians perform at arm's length, illusionists typically perform on stage for larger audiences.

Many clients book illusionists for corporate events, gala dinners, theatre shows, product launches, awards ceremonies and large private celebrations where a headline stage act is needed. Illusionist shows are visually spectacular and work well as a focal point for the evening.

Most illusionists require a stage area, specific lighting, and sometimes rigging or special effects equipment. Space needs vary depending on the illusions being performed. To get the best results, discuss all technical and staging requirements with the illusionist well in advance.

Most illusionists bring their own props, illusion equipment and often their own lighting and sound. For larger venues, coordination with the venue's technical team may be needed. It is advisable to confirm all equipment and access requirements before booking.
