Magic

Close-up card magic

Close-up magic happens right under your guests’ eyes, often with everyday objects. It’s the ideal, intimate format for creating high-impact moments in small groups.

Why close-up works:

  • Proximity: Maximum impact at arm’s length.
  • Interaction: Every performance is unique because your guests take part.
  • Versatility: Fits weddings, private parties and corporate events.
Digital magic on iPad

By blending technology and illusion — iPads or even your guests’ smartphones — digital magic offers a modern, highly visual experience. It’s perfect for innovative events and product launches.

Highlights:

  • Contemporary impact: Tech-forward effects that feel fresh and interactive.
  • Personalisation: Integrate logos, products or messages seamlessly.
  • Adaptability: Ideal for trade shows, corporate events and high-tech themes.
Close-up mentalism

The art of suggesting thought-reading and prediction with disarming precision. Mentalism captivates with mystery, tension and intimate interaction — leaving deep, lasting impressions.

Why audiences love it:

  • Fascination: The illusion of reading minds has extraordinary impact.
  • Emotional engagement: Immersive experiences that spark curiosity.
  • Intrigue & mystery: A unique, memorable form of entertainment.
