Braden Carlisle performing close-up magic for guests at a private party
Private Parties & Celebrations

Give Your Guests the VIP Experience

Birthdays, anniversaries, holiday parties, and the nights people bring up for years.

Braden Carlisle performs close-up magic that works anywhere your party is happening: a living room, a backyard, a rooftop, a private dining room. No stage, no sound system, no setup. He works the room in small groups, and by the end of the night every guest has a story from the same fifteen minutes.

What It Looks Like

Magic for Whatever You're Celebrating

Birthdays & Milestones

Turning 21, 40, 50, or 60. Close-up magic that pulls the guest of honor into the middle of the moment instead of watching from the side of the room, with the people they actually want in the room.

Holiday Parties

Company holiday parties, family gatherings, and December blowouts. A no-effort upgrade that gets people off their phones and into the same conversation with people they have known for years.

Bachelorette & Bachelor Weekends

For the group that has done the bar crawl and wants something they will still be talking about at the wedding. Braden works with whatever the weekend plan looks like.

At Home & Private Dining

Living rooms, patios, backyards, restaurant private rooms, rooftops. No stage, no sound system, no space requirements. If there is room to stand in a circle, there is room for magic.

From a Real Party

A Breckenridge Bachelorette Weekend

Twelve guests, one living room in the mountains, and 45 minutes of interactive close-up magic that turned the last night of the weekend into the part everyone still talks about. They booked Braden for the wedding next.

How I Help You Best

Three Ways to Work With Braden

Every party is different. Book one format on its own, or combine them, and Braden will tell you which fits your guest count and timeline.

The Show

A focused performance for your whole group at once: 30 to 45 minutes of mind-reading, sleight of hand, and audience moments. It works in a living room, a backyard, or a private dining room, and needs no stage, power, or sound system.

Strolling

Braden moves through your party in small groups, performing close-up magic inches from your guests. Best for arrivals, cocktail hour, and the stretches of the night when people are up and mingling.

The Full Experience

Private Events FAQ

Questions Hosts Always Ask

None. Braden works as well with 12 people in a living room as with 150 in a backyard. The magic scales to the room, not the other way around.
Never for a private party. Braden performs out of his pockets and does not need power, a stage, or a microphone. All he needs is a spot where a few people can gather.
Yes. Private party sets are built for mixed ages, from kids at a birthday to grandparents at an anniversary. Nobody is ever put on the spot unless they want to be.
Anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 hours, depending on your guest count and what the evening needs. A short strolling set covers cocktail hour or a dinner break; a longer booking lets him reach every group in the room.
For holiday parties and bachelorette weekends, two to three months ahead is ideal. Weeknights and slower seasons can often be arranged on shorter notice.
