Table Magician Berlin – Close-up Magic Right at the Table

What does a table magician do?

A table magician (also called a close-up magician) approaches guests directly and performs right in their hands – at tables, during the reception or while standing. “Close-up” means exactly that: cards, rings or borrowed objects transform while the audience is in the middle of the action.

Unlike a stage show, table magic needs no technology, no large area and no fixed schedule. It adapts to your event, breaks the ice between guests and creates personal wow moments people talk about for a long time.

In Berlin and across Germany, David Millert has performed as a table magician for clients including Aldi Nord, Mercedes-Benz, Samsung and Coca-Cola.

• For any group size: from intimate dinners to large celebrations

When is a table magician worth it?

Table magic works wherever people come together and the mood should lift – especially before the official programme.

• Corporate & Christmas parties – as an icebreaker at the reception
• Weddings – during the photo shoot and cocktail hour
• Trade shows – as a walking act at the stand
• Restaurants, bars and private dinners
