What is 'strolling magic'?
Strolling magic, also known as “close-up magic” is a form of magic that is performed in close proximity to your audience, often using everyday objects such as money, cards, and other small props. Strolling magic is typically performed for small groups of people as the magician mingles with the guests at your event.
One of the main characteristics of strolling magic is that it is highly interactive, with the magician often involving the audience in the tricks or performing tricks that involve members of the audience. This allows the magician to create a sense of intimacy and connection with the audience, and it also allows the audience to experience the magic up close and personal.
Close-up magic can be performed in a variety of settings, including at parties, corporate events, and in restaurants or other public spaces. Some of the most common types of close-up magic tricks include card tricks, coin tricks, and mentalism, which involves mind reading or other mental feats.
One of the benefits of close-up magic is that it can be performed in a variety of environments, and it requires minimal setup or equipment. This makes it an ideal form of entertainment for small groups, as the magician can easily move from one location to another and adapt the performance to the space and audience they are performing for.

Trade show magicians may also work with companies to develop customized magic routines or shows that are tailored to a specific product or audience. This can be an effective way to create a memorable and engaging experience for attendees and to drive brand awareness and sales.

Can Rob perform magic during our dinner?
If you are having a corporate banquet/dinner, you may be considering entertainment for your event while the guests enjoy their meals. Entertainment during the meal is a great idea; it uplifts the atmosphere of the event and can really add to your evening.
While magic is a great idea for many corporate events, it should never be scheduled to occur while meals are being eaten. Magic (specifically Rob’s magic) is interactive in nature, and requires the attention and participation of the audience.
While your guests are eating, they won’t want to have to look up from their meals and stop their coversation to pay attention to a magic show. It’s for this reason that magic is best scheduled for cocktail hour before dinner (strolling close-up magic), or an after dinner stage show.
During the meal is the perfect time for ambient background entertainment, such as a live band, DJ or other musical act. Your guests will be able to enjoy their meals and conversations, while also being entertained by the music in the background.
