I hired Ashtar to attend my friend Christmas party this year and I could not recommend him enough! He was punctual, accommodating, respectful, and loads of fun! Everyone had nothing but great things to say about his performances. He had many surprises for us and loved that he included a holiday themed show. Book Ashtar for your next party or event and you will not be disappointed! More...

Ashtar was absolutely brilliant! I threw him a few curveballs as we had some major changes to the organization of the night of my event and he really came through and made sure it was an awesome show. Everyone had great things to say and we would definitely recommend him to others! More...

We invited Ashtar to entertain our guests at our Halloween Party, and from the very first introduction he was so personable, friendly and charming! His profile information is excellent, with various content showing his diverse experience with both adult and children's events. During our preliminary conversations, he seemed an excellent choice for our party, and he did not disappoint! He was on time, dressed for the occasion, professional but very approachable! He made our guests feel comfortable while he dazzled them with his illusions and magic tricks - and his half hour "show" was so fun, inclusive of our guests, and entertaining! We were very happy with our choice to hire Ashtar for our party - bravo, Ashtar, and thank you! More...

We booked Ashtar for my sister’s 30th birthday and he absolutely blew us away! He didn’t just perform tricks, he made the whole experience personal and interactive, which made it even more special.
Everyone was left amazed and talking about his performance long after it was over. He has such a great stage presence and really knows how to connect with his audience.
If you’re looking for someone who will not only entertain but also create unforgettable memories, I highly recommend booking him. Thank you again for making my sister’s birthday so magical!

We had Ashtar perform at my fiancé birthday party, and he was absolutely amazing! The tricks were mind-blowing, and they kept both everyone entertained.
His energy, creativity, and ability to engage with the crowd made the experience unforgettable.
The guests couldn’t stop talking about how fun and interactive the performance was—even after the party ended. If you’re looking for a magician to add something special to your event, I highly recommend Ashtar. You won’t be disappointed!

From the first communication to post-show feedback from our (mainly) adult party guests, I have nothing but positive things to say about Ashtar. He was available for questions, easy to work with, on time, and a genuinely nice person with an impressive array of tricks. You won't be disappointed. More...

I booked Ashtar very last minute for my daughter’s first birthday… we had kids from 2 to 16 yrs old in attendance and not only did Ashtar know how to wow them, he drew all the adults in from the other room as well! He was funny, very magical and could keep the audience captivated. This was the first time I have seen my 4year old interact with a performer when she is usually very shy. Ashtar we really enjoyed having you and hope to have you come to more of our kids’ future parties! You are amazing! More...

Ashtar was great for our office holiday party. He was super responsive leading up the event. He showed up on time and prepared and put on a very good show as he mingled with the audience.
He then closed with a 15 presentation to the group that was hilarious.
Highly recommend!

We had Ashtar over for an annual alumni reunion this Labor Day weekend. While parents were busy, the kids had to be kept busy.
Although the kids were from various age groups (4 to 15 years of age), all of them had so much fun.
Ashtar was extremely responsive, both over email and text.
He was humorous, and kept each one of them engaged. Kids loved the line magic, where they lined up, and got a chance to perform a trick and keep a souvenir. Thanks Ashtar - so glad we teamed up with you to bring in more smiles to our annual alumni reunion!

Ashtar arrived promptly 15 min before the show, had everything set up and was accommodating when a couple guests hadn’t arrived on time. He connected with the children, aged 9-14, and shared funny stories with them while he performed. His magical abilities were well choreographed and he received lots of applause! Highly recommend 👍 More...

Anissa Khan
Magician
I hired Ashtar for my daughters Champagne Birthday (8th) that was held at an event hall. Prior to our booking, we had a call with Ashtar who discussed the types of magic tricks he could/would do, shows he does and describe his walk arounds and his price….
which was totally reasonable. We hired him for 1.5 hours. 30mins walk around while guest are arriving and mingling, 30min show with the kids in front and parents at their table, and then 30mins again walk around on any guest that he may have missed prior to the show. He made sure all our guest got to experience the magic and they loved it.
Ashtar was on time, professional, kind, and totally blended in with our family and friends. I didn’t have to worry or keep an eye on him. He was amazing! It was my first time hiring a magician and will for sure be hiring him again or any upcoming events we will be having. Personally and now also professionally.
Thanks again Ashtar!! And we’ll be seeing you soon!

Thank you Nadia!!!
How long have you been interested in magic?
I have believed in real magic my whole life. I got interested in magic when I was an adult! 22 years old
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
My shows are a mix of comedy and mystery. I create custom magic and mentalism shows to highlight the person to be celebrated, theme of the event, or company.
I perform with a variety of ordinary objects.
I do bot perform with real animals. Just toys!
What do you love most about your job?
Connecting with people. Very magical. I love giving someone the feeling of experiencing real magic!
What inspired you to start your own business?
My intuition. Strong calling to be a Magician and Mentalist. I feel it is my calling. Plus I am really good! Wink
Why should our clients choose you?
I am kind, professional, caring, magical, highly educated, and experienced!
Walk around (strolling) shows.
Also called “Mingle Magic”.
Perfect when there is a larger group with drinks, food, and socializing!
Weddings, corporate events, and private parties.
Ashtar will perform a private show for every table or if it is cocktail hour and everyone is standing then Ashtar will stroll through the crowd entertaining small groups up close and personal for a very memorable and magical experience!
Theatre Style show
Performed to the entire group at once. Ashtar is more comfortable performing for smaller intimate groups.
Hybrid show
A combination of the two shows. Majority of the show is walk around with a short theatre show at the beginning of the event or a finale at the end.
