Hire a Magician in Salt Lake City

Looking for a magician in Salt Lake City? We book close-up magicians, stage illusionists and mentalists for corporate events, trade shows, weddings and private parties in Salt Lake City, and we negotiate the booking for you.

Booking magicians in Salt Lake City

Salt Lake City's growing tech and finance sectors fuel corporate events, and nearby Park City resorts host conferences, festivals and mountain weddings.

Where Salt Lake City events happen

Downtown hotels and event centers, Park City and Deer Valley resorts, canyon venues and mountain lodges.

Season & timing

Summer and early fall are ideal for mountain events. Winter brings ski-season retreats with weather-dependent travel.

Close-up or stage?

Strolling close-up magic is ideal for cocktail hours and mingling. A stage or parlor show works when guests are seated and you want a shared moment.

Match the act to the crowd

Mentalists play especially well with corporate audiences; family-friendly magicians are perfect for birthdays and mixed-age events.

Use it for business

At trade shows and launches, a magician can draw a crowd to your booth and work your product or message into the act.

Options we book

Strolling close-up magic

Table-to-table magic during receptions and cocktail hours.

Stage show

A featured 30–60 minute show with audience participation.

Trade show magician

Crowd-drawing magic built around your product message.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Do you perform close-up, stage or both?
  • Can we see video of you performing for a similar crowd?
  • How much space and what sound do you need?
  • Can you customize the act for our brand or guest of honor?
  • Is your show suitable for children, adults or both?

We ask these for you, and negotiate strolling vs. stage time, custom branded routines, stage and sound needs and the contract terms on your behalf.

Hiring a magician in Salt Lake City: FAQ

How much does a magician cost in Salt Lake City?+

Magicians set their own fees based on the type of show, length, date and travel, so we don't publish prices. Share your plans and we'll bring you Salt Lake City options and negotiate the booking.

What's the difference between a magician and a mentalist?+

Magicians use sleight of hand and illusions; mentalists appear to read minds and predict choices. Mentalism is a big hit with corporate audiences.

Can a magician perform at a trade show?+

Yes. Trade-show magicians draw crowds to your booth and can build your product or message into the act.

How long does a magic show last?+

Strolling close-up magic usually runs 1–3 hours. Stage shows typically run 30–60 minutes.

Strolling magic or a stage show?+

Strolling magic works best during mingling time. A stage show needs a seated audience and a set program slot. Many events book both from the same performer.
