The entertainment that turns a birthday into an event

A buffet, music, friends: only one thing is missing for your birthday to become the memory of the year — a shared moment of pure astonishment. My close-up magic happens directly in your guests' hands: no stage, no setup, just wonder, group after group.

Whether it's your 30th, 40th, 50th or 60th, a surprise organized by your loved ones, or a teenager's birthday, I adapt my style to the audience: elegant and mind-blowing with adults, playful with younger guests, always interactive.

And because a birthday celebrates a person, I can build a fully personalized act around the guest of honor: their birth date, their passions, a memory, a photo. That is often the moment that brings tears — or roars of laughter.

A format for every kind of party

Close-up magic during a birthday cocktail

During the aperitif or cocktail, I move among your guests and create magic moments for groups of 3 to 8 people. It is the ideal way to launch the evening: it breaks the ice between guests who don't know each other and sets the tone immediately.

  • Duration: 1.5 to 2 hours, adapted to your schedule.
  • No constraints: no stage, no sound system, no setup.
  • Any venue: apartment, restaurant, private room, garden, rooftop.
Personalized mentalism act for the guest of honor

The highlight of the evening: a mentalism or magic act custom-designed for the guest of honor, prepared in secret with the organizers. Predictions about their life, mind reading with their loved ones, a final revelation tied to their story…

  • Prepared with you: I gather anecdotes, dates and memories beforehand.
  • A unifying moment: the whole party gathers around a single shared memory.
  • Guaranteed emotion: it is the moment people still talk about years later.
Table magic during a birthday dinner

For birthdays organized around a dinner — at a restaurant or at home — I move from table to table between courses. Each table enjoys its own experience, at the pace of the meal, never interrupting conversations: I feed them.

  • Controlled pace: about 15 minutes of magic per table of 10.
  • Maximum proximity: the effects happen in the guests' own hands.
  • Fully compatible with the cake, the speeches and any planned surprises.

For every milestone

Milestone birthdays — 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th

Milestone birthdays often bring together family, childhood friends and colleagues who have never met. Close-up magic is the perfect connector: it gives everyone a shared source of wonder within minutes.

Surprise parties

Organizing a surprise? Make me part of it. The personalized act around the guest of honor, prepared in secret with you, becomes the second surprise of the evening — often even stronger than the first.

18th birthdays and teenage parties

A generation that is hard to impress? My favorite challenge. Magic with smartphones, social media and the objects of their daily life — the real-world version of the magic they watch online, happening in their own hands.

Multigenerational family celebrations

From children (aged 8 and up) to grandparents, magic is the rare language every generation shares. I adapt each set to the group in front of me. For parties centered on young children, I transparently recommend a magician specializing in young audiences.

25 years of experience, hundreds of private parties

For 25 years, I have performed at private events in Paris and throughout France: birthdays, weddings, family receptions, parties among friends. My repertoire — close-up, mentalism and digital magic — adapts to every audience and every venue.

I have 570 five-star Google reviews, and many of my birthday bookings come from guests who first saw me… at someone else's birthday.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

I perform at adult and teenage birthday parties: 18th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th and beyond. My close-up magic and mentalism are designed for adult audiences and work very well with children aged 8 and up. For a young children's birthday, a magician specializing in young audiences will be a better fit.

Yes — close-up magic is ideal at home: no stage or sound system needed. I perform equally well in a Paris apartment, a restaurant, a private venue, a rooftop or a garden.

For a birthday party, the most popular format is 1.5 to 2 hours of strolling magic during the cocktail or aperitif, possibly followed by a group mentalism moment centered on the guest of honor. Duration is adapted to your schedule.

That is my specialty for birthdays: a trick or mentalism act built around the person being celebrated — their birth date, their passions, a photo, a meaningful memory. The surprise effect is guaranteed and the moment stays with everyone.

Not at all. I arrive with my own material and adapt to your venue and your schedule. The magic happens directly in your guests' hands.
