Very few booths actually stand out

The right trade show magician transforms your booth from “just another stop” into the must-see destination of the entire event.

Whether you’re exhibiting at a small local expo or a massive international trade fair, hiring a magician near you ensures that your company captures attention, engages prospects, and builds meaningful connections.

Trade Show Magician Near me Previous Clients

Highradius first reached out to Chris to support our sales and marketing team at a major industry tradeshow.

We were amazed by the tailored performances he created exclusively for us—seamlessly weaving in our brand story and product messages.

His impact was so strong that we invited him back for multiple tradeshows, and even featured him as a magical intermission between keynote speakers at our global conference.

After hearing about Chris’s success with Highradius, we invited him to join us at our biggest tradeshow of the year.

Chris drew countless visitors to our stand—many of whom might have otherwise walked past—including several key prospects we had been pursuing for some time.

Later, at our sponsored happy-hour event, Chris truly shined, captivating and entertaining our guests with unforgettable performances.

Chris has become an invaluable part of our event team, joining us at numerous shows and consistently drawing large crowds.

He engages the public with incredible routines, sparks conversations, and seamlessly passes leads to our sales teams.

There’s nothing quite like the buzz a professional magician creates. Chris captivates everyone, kids, adults, and guests from all walks of life. If we could, we’d sign him up as a permanent member of our sales force!

Message Integration: Tricks are customised to weave in your product, service, or brand story.

Trade Show Magician Near me Frequently asked questions

What does a trade show magician do?

A trade show magician blends live magic with your company’s message to attract, engage, and educate stand visitors. I use the latest sleight of hand, mind reading, and interactive routines to make your booth the most talked-about stand at the show, all while seamlessly delivering your key talking points.

How does a trade show magician help generate leads?

Magic instantly grabs attention and draws a crowd. Once people are gathered, I naturally transition into your message, highlighting your products, services, or brand in a way that’s both fun and memorable. I then smoothly pass the interested prospects to your sales team for deeper conversations and lead capture.

Will the magic be tailored to our brand and products?

Absolutely. I work closely with your team ahead of time to understand your brand, goals, and messaging. Every routine is customised to reflect your value proposition, so the magic not only entertains but also educates and promotes what makes your company unique.

What size booth or space do I need?

I can adapt my performance to fit virtually any stand size, from compact 10x10 spaces to large island exhibits. Whether you want a strolling performance or a fixed stage-style show, we’ll plan the best format to suit your space and traffic flow.

Do you need any special equipment or setup?

Not much! I typically require minimal space and setup. Depending on the performance style, I may need a small table, a microphone (for louder venues), and basic lighting. I’ll provide a checklist in advance so everything runs smoothly.

What industries do you work with?

I’ve performed for companies across a wide range of industries, including technology, healthcare, finance, manufacturing, telecommunications, and more. Magic is universal; it can be tailored to resonate with any audience, from B2B to consumer-focused markets.

How long are your performances?

Performance times can vary depending on your goals. Some booths benefit from short 5–10 minute shows repeated throughout the day, while others prefer longer, scheduled shows to build anticipation. We’ll work together to find the right rhythm for your booth and audience.

Are you available for international trade shows?

Yes, I regularly travel for national and international trade shows. I’m happy to work with your event planners to coordinate travel, logistics, and local regulations, wherever your event takes place.

What Makes a Great Trade Show Magician?

Not every magician is right for the trade show floor. You need someone who:

Understands Marketing – They’re not just performing tricks; they’re supporting your business goals.
Is Engaging and Professional – Friendly, polished, and able to connect with diverse audiences.
Handles Pressure – Trade shows are loud, fast-paced, and unpredictable.
Customizes Performances – The magic should highlight your products, not just the magician’s skills.

Magic is perfect for tradeshows.

It is intriguing - building a crowd, creating a buzz and attracting new clients to your stand.

It is engaging - delegates will get caught up in the routine and spend longer at your stand, the perfect opportunity to engage with them and discover if they have a need for your products and services.

It can deliver a message - I will take the time to understand your business and build you tailored routines with custom scripts that deliver your company message and product benefits. We can work in giveaways and merchandise into the routines or reveal a new product in a magical way.

The ROI of Hiring a Trade Show Magician

You might wonder: Is this really worth it?

Here’s the bottom line—companies that invest in trade show magic consistently report:

Increased Foot Traffic (up to 3–5x more visitors)
Higher Quality Leads (because the audience is engaged, not rushed)
Stronger Brand Recall (people remember your booth weeks later)
Better Sales Conversations (the magician “warms up” the crowd before your pitch)

Compared to spending on giveaways, flyers, or oversized banners, a magician provides a living, breathing, interactive marketing tool that’s far more effective.

We were delighted with Chris at our tradeshow.

I speak on behalf of the whole team when I say I really hope he can join us again next year. Tradeshows are long and exhausting and Chris was fun, engaging and motivated our team from start to finish.
