You have enough to worry about as a host. Let me handle the vibe. I provide a high-end, low-stress entertainment option that distinguishes your event. Whether you are in a Manhattan loft or a Hamptons estate, I bring the sophistication your guests expect.

Why Hosts Book a Magician

  • You get to enjoy your own party: hosts usually spend the night working the room. I keep your guests entertained and connected, so you can actually eat, drink and be there.
     

  • The guest of honor shines: the magic is built to spotlight them - their moment becomes the moment of the night.
     

  • It works in your space: living rooms, restaurants, lofts, rooftops and backyards. No stage, no setup, no rearranging your furniture.
     

  • Mixed crowds, handled: grandparents, college friends, coworkers and cousins all end up laughing at the same table.
     

  • It gives people something to talk about: your party becomes "the one with the magician" for years.

Modern Magic for the Modern Host

Gone are the days of cheesy tricks and awkward silences. You deserve entertainment that matches the style of your event.

​

As the Best Female Magician in NYC, I bring a fresh, feminine perspective to the art of illusion. My performance is a blend of mind-reading mentalism, intricate sleight of hand, and the "Bubbly Magician" charm that puts everyone at ease.

Choose Your Format

I offer flexible packages designed to fit your schedule, venue, and guest count.

The Icebreaker:

Cocktail Hour Magic

Perfect for cocktail parties and gatherings where guests are mixing and mingling. I circulate through the room with my Mingle Magic, performing miracles right in your guests' hands. It is the ultimate conversation starter - and your guest of honor gets moments nobody at the party will stop talking about.

The Main Event:


Interactive Stage Show

Need a centerpiece moment for the night? My Interactive Group Show engages the entire room (up to 200 people). I make your guest of honor the star of the show - and give everyone else a story to take home.

The Surprise:


The Secret Performer

Want to surprise someone? Book me as a Secret Performer. I blend in as a guest - a friend of a friend, a plus-one nobody can quite place - before revealing myself with a show-stopping performance your guest of honor will never see coming.

FAQs

  1. How far in advance should I book a magician for a private party?
    Weekends go first, especially in the holiday season. 4 to 8 weeks out is comfortable, but reach out even if your party is close - if I am free, I will make it work.
     

  2. Can you perform in my home, a restaurant or a small space?
    Absolutely - private parties are my home turf. Mingle Magic needs no space at all, and the group show needs only a small area where guests can see me. Apartments, restaurants, lofts and backyards all work.
     

  3. How long do you perform at a private party?
    Most hosts book 1 to 2 hours of Mingle Magic during cocktails and mingling, or the 30 to 45 minute Interactive Group Show as the centerpiece. Many book both: mingle first, show after dinner or cake.
     

  4. Can you make the magic about our guest of honor?
    That is the whole point. Tell me a little about them when you book, and I will build their spotlight moment around them - they become the star of the show.
     

  5. Can I book you as a surprise?
    Yes - surprise bookings are some of my favorites. I can arrive as the Secret Performer, blending in as a guest before the reveal, or simply stay our little secret until the moment lands.
     

  6. Is your magic right for a mixed-age family party?
    My material is sophisticated and designed for adults - and completely clean, so it is perfectly safe if a few younger family members are in the room. Grandparents and college friends alike end up at the same table laughing.
     

  7. How much does a private party magician in NYC cost?
    It depends on the date, format, guest count and location - there is no single market price. Send me your date and party details for an exact quote with no pressure.
     

  8. Where do you perform private events?
    Across NYC - Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island - plus Long Island (including the Hamptons), New Jersey, Connecticut and Westchester when the event and budget fit.
