Browse 402 magicians and magic performers for hire in Australia, with 1524 reviews from real clients rating acts 5 out of 5. The acts listed cover close-up magic performed for small groups, table-to-table sets during a seated meal, and staged shows with props and audience volunteers, so the same page serves a 30-guest dinner and a 300-guest awards night.
Most magic acts travel well beyond the town they are based in, so the choice available for a given date is usually wider than it first looks. Most bookings land around $700.

Magicians in Australia work across weddings, private parties and corporate events, and many will have performed at the same venues you are considering. That matters more than it sounds: an act that knows a room knows where the awkward sightlines are, how long the drinks reception really runs, and when the staff will start clearing tables.
Close-up magic asks for almost nothing at all. No stage, no power, no sound system, and the act can start the moment guests have a drink in hand. A staged set is a different proposition and needs a clear area guests can see from a seated position, somewhere to leave props out of sight, and in a large room a microphone through the house system. Ask the venue about the sound system before booking a stage act, because a magician talking without amplification to 200 seated guests will not carry.
The two slots that work hardest are the drinks reception, where guests are standing and have nothing to do, and the gap between a meal and the evening entertainment. Roaming magic during a seated meal works too, though it needs coordinating with the catering team so the act is not arriving at a table as the plates do. Give the performer a running order a week or two ahead and they will usually suggest where their set lands best.
Rates for magic acts in Australia centre on $700 for a standard booking, with the length of the performance window the single biggest factor. Distance adds to a quote once a performer is travelling far enough to need a hotel, and the busiest wedding dates of the year carry a premium. Check whether the quoted fee covers setup time and any props specific to your event, and whether a second appearance later in the evening is charged separately or folded into a package.
The average price for Magicians available in Australia is $700 (AUD). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.
René Frotscher/ René Mazing
"Fantastic presence and performances! Rene did a great job blending in until the moment came to stand out, and he spread the performance around across all attendees. We got a secret surprise souvenir that we've kept in a special place :) Thank you Rene!"
Magician Brent Kessler
"Brent Performed a show for a large gala that we held. His tricks and illusions captivated the entire audience. Several weeks later and people are still talking about how great it was to have a magician there. He was a professional the whole time from setup to tear down. If you were looking for a magician, please look no further than Brent."
Peter Mills Magic
"My mother hired Peter Mills in 2000 for my son's 8th birthday party. My son was really into magic at the time. Peter performed a great show. The kids, and my mother and myself were thoroughly entertained. I know that was a long time ago, but Peter Mills is an excellent magician and my son loved him. We saw him in a store a few years after the show. He still remembered us and doing our show he is a very friendly, warm and professional person. If you are looking for a magician to hire for whatever your event is, look no further. I guarantee you will enjoy his performance. Thank you Peter Mills for giving my son Adam one of the best and most cherished memories he has."
Magician Warsaw - MAGIC & MENTALISM SHOW!
"I rarely write reviews, but this one is exceptionally well-deserved. Each year for our industry awards ceremony, we hire different kinds of entertainment: acrobats, fire shows, dancers, and even other magicians. However, absolutely no one has ever left our guests in awe quite like Rafał. His main performance was mind-blowing and hilarious, but the tricks (if you can even call them that) he performed later while walking among us were just INSANE!
It’s been a week since the event, and it is still the talk of the office. I highly recommend him This young, charming man is absolute world-class talent!"
⭐Reda: President, Cercle Magique de Paris
"Reda made the most magical night of our lives even more magical! We hired him for our wedding in Sicily and could not be more grateful that we did. Not only did he leave guests in awe, but he was kind, entertaining, and added a unique element to our cocktail hour. Could not recommend him enough!"
Entertainment of Brandon Smith
"Brandon is an excellent entertainer. We hired him for a volunteer/staff appreciation party and he floated around from group to group displaying a number of card, bills, and coin tricks. He left everyone wondering how the heck he pulled it off and everyone really enjoyed the entertainment. It was the perfect addition to show appreciation to our volunteer team. I'd definitely recommend Brandon to help you take your event/party to the next level!"
