How much does a corporate magician charge?

Working corporate magicians typically book $1,500–$5,000 for a 1–2 hour trade show or reception set, and $3,500–$10,000+ for a stage show at a conference or awards dinner. Major-brand names and trade-show specialists clear well above that.

What does a corporate event planner want to see?

A clean one-sheet EPK with logos of past corporate clients, a 60–90 second reel from real corporate audiences (not bar or restaurant footage), a clear price range, and proof of liability insurance.

Trade show magic vs. stage magic — which pays better?

Trade show (close-up / walk-around) is steadier daily work and often books multi-day at $1,500–$3,000/day. Stage shows pay more per gig but are less frequent. Most full-time corporate magicians do both.

Do I need an agent to book corporate magic?

Helpful but not required. Direct outreach to event planners and trade show exhibitors, plus listings on the right platforms, is how most corporate magicians get started. Agents become more valuable once you're a known quantity.

Corporate magic — trade shows, sales kickoffs, hospitality suites, awards dinners — pays multiples of what restaurant and party work pays, and the buyers are very different. Event planners and marketing teams hire on professionalism, polish, and a clean track record, not on tricks.

This page collects the corporate-focused agencies, trade show platforms, rate benchmarks, and one-sheet/EPK tools working corporate magicians use to win those bookings. Everything is tuned for adult corporate audiences — not kids' parties, not bar magic.
