DaCosta Magic Entertainment: Creating Wonder Since 2005
For over 20 years, Phil DaCosta has been captivating audiences with unforgettable magic experiences. From intimate gatherings to corporate galas, Phil’s unique blend of sleight-of-hand and stage presence has left thousands in awe across the GTA and beyond.

Founded in 2005, DaCosta Magic has grown into a full-scale entertainment brand, performing for major names like The Toronto Zoo, Bombardier, Wrigley’s, Cineplex, and Curiosa, just to name a few. Known for his professionalism, charisma, and originality, Phil’s reputation as a top-tier magician continues to rise.

In 2012, Phil released his signature illusion, “Confinement”, through the global magic platform (link hidden). The trick quickly gained critical acclaim and remains a top-seller with magicians worldwide.

In 2021, DaCosta Magic officially relocated to Barrie, Ontario, where Phil, his wife, and their three cats now call Simcoe County home. Since the move, DaCosta Magic has expanded its reach across Simcoe, Muskoka, and the Kawarthas, all while maintaining a strong presence in the Greater Toronto Area.

The community has taken notice. Phil was proudly crowned Best Magician in Barrie by Community Votes in 2023, 2024, and 2025—a testament to his commitment to delivering high-quality, engaging performances for all ages.

In 2018, DaCosta Magic launched the School of Magic, offering hands-on magic classes for kids and teens. Now based in Barrie, the school runs from September to April, empowering the next generation of performers with confidence, creativity, and a little bit of wonder.

With a packed calendar of shows, workshops, and private events, DaCosta Magic Entertainment continues to inspire curiosity, laughter, and amazement—wherever the magic goes next.

Parlour Shows require sound. DaCosta Magic can provide a speaker system and hands free body mic. As well, if a dj or sound operator is present, we can link our hands free body mic to the sound system available.
