Reviews of Illusionists available in Newport Beach

5/5 from 901 reviews
Photo of magicIAN show magicIAN show "We had MagicIAN at our son's 8th grade promotion party. We had approximately 35 guests, ranging in age from 10-70. All the guests were enthralled with MagicIAN. He began the evening with small group entertainment as they ate appetizers, and then he moved into a dinner show as the guests at their meals. He was punctual, professional and entertaining! Well worth the money! -Yelp Review 6/25/2021" Based in Anaheim, California (15 miles from Newport Beach) Caren D. - Grad Party Photo of BRIAN ARKELL MAGIC BRIAN ARKELL MAGIC "Solid Talent and a Nice Guy!

Brandon is a delight to be around and well worth the hours spent trying to figure out, "How did he do that?" Five stars are not enough to describe what he has to offer and I hope to see him perform again sometime soon."

He didn’t just invent a move, or a trick, or a routine… but an entirely new system for coin magic! I have had the pleasure of meeting him early in his career and have since seen him perform in China, the US, and Canada. He has a lot of ideas and the chops to make them happen! A rare talent indeed! I’ll be following his career with great interest!"

Frequently asked questions

Hiring illusionists typically costs between $130 and $1,300+, with an average of $500. 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.
