Josh Weidner Performs Walk Around Magic at an Event in St Louis
When planning an event, one of the biggest challenges is keeping your guests engaged and entertained.
You want something unique, memorable, and interactive—and that’s where walk-around magic comes in.
Also known as strolling magic, this style of performance is dynamic, personal, and perfect for a variety of occasions.
Let’s dive into what walk-around magic is, why it’s so effective, and why magician Josh Weidner is the ideal choice to bring this experience to life at your next event.
What is Walk-Around Magic?
Walk-around magic is a form of close-up magic performed in an informal, interactive setting. Instead of being confined to a stage, the magician moves through the crowd, performing for small groups or individual guests. This creates a personal and engaging experience, with tricks happening right in front of your eyes—sometimes even in your own hands.
The magic typically involves:
Card tricks: Classic, yet always impressive when performed up close.
Mind-reading: Mentalism and predictions that leave your guests questioning reality.
Sleight of hand: Coins, objects, and even borrowed items vanish, transform, or reappear in impossible ways.
Comedy and interaction: A touch of humor ensures everyone is relaxed and entertained.
Walk-around magic isn’t just about tricks; it’s about creating moments of wonder and connection, making it an ideal choice for any gathering.
Why Choose Walk-Around Magic for Your Event?
1. It’s Interactive and Inclusive
Unlike stage performances, walk-around magic ensures everyone feels involved. The magician moves through the crowd, performing for small groups, so no one is left out. This personalized approach keeps guests engaged and adds a layer of excitement to the event.
2. It’s Perfect for Any Venue
Walk-around magic doesn’t require special equipment, a stage, or a dedicated performance area. Whether you’re hosting a corporate event in a ballroom, a wedding in a garden, or a fundraiser at a local venue, walk-around magic seamlessly fits into the space.
3. It Fills Gaps in the Event Schedule
Need something to entertain guests during cocktail hour, between courses, or while photos are being taken? Walk-around magic is the perfect solution. It keeps the energy up and ensures there are no dull moments.
4. It Breaks the Ice
Walk-around magic is a fantastic conversation starter. Guests who might not know each other will find themselves laughing, chatting, and bonding over the shared experience of witnessing something incredible.
5. It’s Memorable
Your guests won’t just remember attending your event; they’ll remember the amazing tricks they saw and the fun they had. Walk-around magic creates lasting impressions that will keep your event top-of-mind long after it’s over.
