Hire a Kids' Magician You Can Trust

Finding the right entertainer for your child's birthday party isn't easy. You want someone who's professional, shows up on time, keeps every kid engaged, and doesn't make you cringe. You want someone who actually knows how to work with kids — not a nightclub magician doing card tricks for five-year-olds.

Magic For Kids is a dedicated children's entertainment company based in New York City. We perform interactive, age-appropriate magic shows designed specifically for kids ages 4–12. Every show is 60 minutes of nonstop fun — 45 minutes of interactive magic where kids are part of every trick, plus 15 minutes of balloon twisting where every child takes home a custom creation.

We arrive 30 minutes early, bring all our own equipment, and handle the entertainment from start to finish. You focus on hosting — we'll keep the kids completely entertained.

Frequently Asked Questions

What parents want to know before hiring.

How much does it cost to hire a kids' magician in NYC?

Our shows start at $450 for the full 60-minute experience (45 minutes of interactive magic + 15+ minutes of balloon twisting). That price includes all equipment, setup, and travel within NYC. No hidden fees. For Long Island and Westchester, a small travel fee may apply.

How far in advance do I need to book?

We recommend at least 2–3 weeks for NYC dates and 3–4 weeks for Long Island and Westchester. Weekend dates during spring and fall birthday season fill up fast, so the earlier you book the better your chances of getting your preferred time slot.

What ages is the show best for?

Ages 4–12. We adjust the content, pacing, and complexity based on your group. Younger kids get silly comedy and big visual tricks. Older kids get mind-reading and sleight of hand that genuinely fools them. Mixed ages are no problem.

Where do you perform?

Everywhere — apartments, houses, backyards, restaurants, party venues, parks, schools, community centers. We serve all of NYC (Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island), Long Island, and Westchester.

How much space do you need?

A 6×6 foot area and a power outlet. We've performed in tiny Manhattan apartments and huge Long Island backyards — the show works in any space where kids can gather.

Do I need to provide anything?

Just a space for the show and kids who are ready to have fun. We bring everything — all props, equipment, and supplies. We set up and clean up after ourselves.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

Life happens. Contact us as early as possible and we'll work with you on rescheduling. We're flexible and understand that plans change, especially with kids' events.
