Ben Silver Magic - Ben roaming the crowd and wowing guests. - Magicians Near Me

See all

Ben Silver is incredible - he is a mind blowing illusionist, a knowledgeable sommelier, and such a personable and funny individual . My husband and I were lucky enough to see him up close when he was hired as a strolling magician for my work holiday party - we were literally standing less than a foot from him and were astounded over and over by the tricks he was doing. My colleagues and I still talk about how mind blowing his performance was. I can't say enough great things about him - he is truly the whole package. read more

Ben was fantastic! I won't discuss his tricks here as to not ruin it for others, but he did several for me and 2 others as he started out his night at the JW Marriott in Las Vegas a few days ago and I have since told many people about it. My mind was blown! In person, in your own hands is definitely better than seeing someone with his skills on a stage. I was the AV vendor and offered him a mic but he said no he wanted to work the room. I watched him work his magic for 2 hours, group by group and kept hearing about other tricks he was doing. So cool, great job! read more

Wow. Absolutely astounded seeing Ben Silver at The Magic Castle. I had no idea what to expect when I made my way down into his set. All magicians at The Magic Castle are world-class but this was on another level. I have never seen tricks like this performed and there was simply no explanation for any of them. Ben is also HILARIOUS, and even the warm-up was so funny and so amazing! I am crossing my fingers that I'll have a reason to hire him for a corporate event or any other kind of party in the near future so that more people can experience these astounding tricks. read more

Thank you for the memories! read more

Ben Silver = Phenomenal!!! I hired Ben Silver for my mom's 60th birthday and he was the hit of the night!! He did a wine and magic dinner for my family, about 20 of us in total. It was the most amazing dinner experience I have ever been a part of! The wines we're perfectly paired and the magic was out of this world, I am still dumbfounded on how what he did was possible. At first when I spoke with Ben he was very warm and professional and gave me different opinions to consider, he made sure all my needs we're met. His pricing was more than I expected but I honestly didn't know what a magician cost, but he's not only a magician he's also a wine expert. Let me tell you , you get what you pay for, Ben Silver is the best magician I have ever seen and his execution of the evening was flawless. I can't wait to use him again and I'm recommend in him for my companies holiday party.

This guy seriously is better than David Blaine and Chris Angel! Ben Silver is the raddest magician! He had time to spend about 20 mins with our table privately and gave us the BEST magic show ever. We discussed for hours on 'how he did it' and we couldn't figure it out. Ben is also a really nice guy and I would hire him for a private show or dinner party in the future! read more

I was lucky enough to have Ben as my server at Meze. He's amazing. He hands down made my birthday dinner the best because he's a magician! WHAT!?! How did Meze 1) find him 2) convince him to work for them? I'll just say, one of the tricks he did was that he made glass appear between my hands when I was holding a stack of cards. I have no idea and am still confused, but I would so go back to just see his performance again. Ben, thank you for being so great and making my birthday one to remember. I'll definitely have to see a show of yours one day when I'm back in San Diego. read more

Ben Silver is the best Magician I have ever seen!!! He performed at my Financial Advisors meet and greet mixer and was an unexpected surprise. I always loved magic as a kid and even had a magic kit. Ben Silver is another level above anything I have ever witnessed, better than Criss Angel and David Blaine and other TV magicians. I looked so hard to see the move as I have a few tricks of my own up my sleeve and I honestly saw nothing, even though I knew in theory what he was doing I physically couldn't see it happen or catch him doing the moves. I'm beyond impressed. So cool of my Advisors to hire him to entertain us. I am now a huge Ben Silver Fan!! Hire him for any and all occasions, he is truly remarkable!!! Thanks Ben!!!! Can't wait to see you perform again!! read more

We invited Ben to perform at our daughter's wedding at Cal-a-Vie during the cocktail reception to entertain the guests, adults and children. He was over the top amazing! He mingled around the small groups and dazzled the young and old alike with his prestidigitation and clever tricks. We look forward to finding another excuse to have Ben come and entertain us again. read more

These are only a sample of the tricks that Ben did for us at dinner! He even guessed my friend's fiancé's name - like mind blowing tricks. 10/10 would recommend. Thoroughly entertained. read more

Ben Silver Magic - Magicians Near Me

I met Ben when he performed at the Prohibition Lounge. We were celebrating our friend's birthday and he asked if he could perform for our table (what a polite magician, I will add) We have to say his performance topped the night! We all were extremely impressed at his tricks and he left us mystified. Not only is he an amazing magician , but his show presence and hospitality were excellent! My friend said it was the highlight of her birthday; she was thrilled! We would love to see him perform again in the near future! read more

I got to attend a private event in which Ben Silver performed his magic and shared his wine knowledge. He was amazing. He is funny, engaging and mesmerizing as he presents his magic and knowledge of wines. I will never understand how he does what he does, it is just magical and entertaining. I was so fortunate to see him perform. Highly recommend him for your event or private show. read more

I was with a group of six at Meze eating dinner, and we were having a rough night, unable to get anyone's attention. Ben is their wine sommelier that is also a magician! Ben was very helpful in selecting wines for the wine flight that I got, which came out amazingly. He promised us a show later that night, and he did not disappoint. When Ben returned he did three really cool tricks that left our jaws dropping and ended our night on a positive note instead of a less than satisfied one. His slight of hand was very good, and he left such an impression that we talked about his tricks the rest of the night. The best part is that it was so unexpected, who would guess that the sommelier is also a magician? And a great one? What a cool asset for Meze to have on hand! read more

I cannot tell you how surprised we were when our friendly and helpful waiter first started bending reality, and then just blew our minds. We came for good Greek food and my boss ended up finding the perfect addition for her birthday party. Ben was amazing! Very talented, engaged, and inventive. I've long been a fan of magicians and I can say he mixed modern technology seamlessly with classic magical mainstays to make a show that was unpredictable and delightful. Considering our show was seamless despite it being a free gift to us while we dined at a restaurant I can't imagine how incredible his shows are. I look forward to seeing him perform again! read more

Ben was our sommelier at meze restaurant. He helped navigate the menu.suggesting a variety of delicious items paired with.excellent Greek wines. The meal was a delightful journey for the senses. Ben extended our delightful dining journey with.his magical talents using a deck of cards. We laughed and scratched our heads trying to figure out what and how he accomplished his magic.. we are still talking about it today !! read more

Ben Silver is wonderful! As downtown residents, my girlfriend and I have been going to Meze for years. We're always lucky when Ben is there, because of his spot-on wine tips and magic performances. My sister got married in October and the families decided to meet for dinner at Meze a few days prior to the wedding. Ben happen to be there, which turned into the best evening for the families. At dessert Ben came over and did a 10 minute magic show that stunned everyone watching. His tricks are truly unbelievable! read more

Our department had a holiday event and to change things up, we had Ben come for a wine tasting. He was so knowledgeable and made the event exciting. He ended with a bang, or should I say, started out his second half with a bang. Turns out he's a magician as well. Our group loved every second of the show and were incredibly impressed by him. Ben - thank you for making our holiday event a memorable one! read more

This guy is out of this world! Ben gave us a full wine and magic presentation for a work event and I was amazed at what he (literally) brought to the table. He is a sommelier AND magician and I believe that's one of the most unlikely yet interesting combinations of talents a person can have. He is very personable, knows how to keep things professional, but also made it very comfortable and interactive so his whole gig wasn't so much a "show" he had people getting involved in certain ways and it was just a blast! I would absolutely consider having Ben for a private wine tasting or even like a chill dinner party at my place or some cool venue. This guy deserves some prime time exposure and I am still at a loss for words by some of the tricks he pulled off! read more

Dinner and show, I'm honestly not sure how he does what he does but we were all dumbfounded! He left all of us in awe and would 100% book him for any event read more

Amazing experience!! Mind blowing tricks! Highly recommend for any event your considering!

What can I say...Now you see it....Now you don't! Ben is the modern day Copperfield! He works in any setup, with poise, and style not seen by many. He's affordable, fun and easy to get along with. Consider Ben and his talents if you need an event to carry a little bit more Pizazz!!! read more

Ben is absolutely amazing. From his friendly personality, his hilarious sense of humor, extensive knowledge of wine, and of COURSE his fabulous magic abilities. Some of the tricks he has done for me have truly left me speechless, he is a true magician and an entertainer in every sense of the word. Thank you Ben!! read more

We've seen Ben perform at Meze a few times and have always been blown away. We liked him so much that we hired him to perform for my wife's birthday.
