On average, professional strolling magicians cost $300-$400. The exact price will vary depending on your location, how long you need them to perform, and their skill level. Strolling magicians who can do more advanced close-up magic may charge more than those who perform quick, simple card tricks.
On GigSalad, magicians are most commonly booked for one hour. However, most performers can work with you to accommodate whatever is needed for your event. If you do hire a magician for longer than an hour, be sure to schedule breaks for them.
Strolling magicians focus on close-up magic and sleight-of-hand tricks for small groups of people. Some magicians will stroll while others will prefer to set up at a small table and let guests stroll to them as they mingle. These talented performers manipulate things like playing cards, coins, sponge balls, and other unique objects while using misdirection and comedy to keep their audience engaged.
Magicians will generally bring everything they need for their performances. You just need to provide them with the space to work their magic! If your magician would rather be stationary and let guests come to them, you might want to provide a table. Though even then, many magicians will have their own magic box or stand to perform at.
Discuss the layout of the venue and the schedule of your event with your magician in advance so they know what they need to perform an amazing show!
Strolling magic and sleight-of-hand tricks are great for all types of events where the audience will be mingling or moving leisurely through the venue. Close-up magicians are a fun option for birthday parties, wedding receptions, cocktail hours, festivals, and holiday celebrations. Walk-around magic can also be a great ice-breaker activity for company meetings, trade shows, and corporate events.
