The company holiday party has one job: make people glad they came. I'm Christian Misner — Christian the Magician — and every December my calendar fills with St. Louis companies and families who've learned that a great magician turns the annual Christmas party from an obligation into the night of the year. The reviews agree: 5.0 stars across 145+ Google reviews, from hosts at more than 200 companies and organizations.

 

Two ways to make your party

 

For company parties: Start with strolling close-up magic during cocktails — I work the room while colleagues who haven't spoken since last December suddenly have something amazing to talk about. Then, when the room is warm, my Grand Magic & Mentalism Show brings everyone together for 30–60 minutes of clean, hilarious, interactive magic with professional sound. It's the format St. Louis companies book year after year, and repeat clients are the backbone of my December.

 

For private parties at home: My Magic Parlor is a one-hour seated show for under 30 adult guests — a real theater experience with special lighting, sound, and effects, set up in your home. It's intimate, astonishing, and unlike anything your friends have had at a holiday party before.

 

Why hosts book me for the holidays

 

December is my busiest month for a reason. Companies like Accenture, AT&T, IBM, Marriott, and Chick-fil-A have trusted me with their events, and private hosts rebook because the show is clean, warm, and genuinely funny — nobody gets embarrassed, and even the office skeptic ends up volunteering.

 

I'm also a practicing attorney, which matters more at the holidays than you'd think: contracts get signed in October, details get confirmed before the rush, and when December chaos hits everyone else, your entertainment is already handled. You have enough to do.

 

Questions hosts ask me

 

How much does a holiday party magician cost in St. Louis? Every party is custom-quoted per event. For companies, hosts choose between my Grand Magic & Mentalism Show on its own, the same show with 20 minutes of warm-up close-up magic added before it, or strolling magic through the cocktail hour and dinner. Private parties at home get the Magic Parlor, and local family holiday gatherings get the Basic or Deluxe Show. Call me with your date and guest count and I'll give you one exact number — everything included.

 

How early should we book? Honestly? As early as you can. Prime December Fridays and Saturdays are often spoken for by early fall, and my December calendar genuinely fills. If your date is taken, ask anyway — schedules shift, and if I can't do it, I can often place one of my associate magicians with your party.

 

Can you keep it appropriate for a work party? Absolutely — clean comedy, volunteer-only participation, and a standing promise: your guests will be amazed and nobody will be embarrassed. It's why HR departments love me.

 

Our party has a theme / awards / a tight schedule. Can you work around it? Happily. I coordinate with your planner, venue, and DJ in advance and build my set around your program — awards, speeches, and dinner courses included.

 

Do you perform for family holiday gatherings too? Yes — family Christmas parties, New Year's events, and everything between Thanksgiving and the ball drop, including riverboat and venue parties across the metro.

 

Where I perform

 

Holiday parties across St. Louis — downtown hotels and ballrooms, Clayton, Chesterfield, Maryland Heights, St. Charles, Kirkwood, Webster Groves, country clubs, restaurants, offices, and private homes throughout the metro and Metro East.
