Hire a Magician for Corporate Events
Thomas de Bernède — internationally acclaimed close-up magician — creates unforgettable experiences for corporate galas, product launches, executive dinners, and brand activations worldwide
Why Hire a Magician for Your Corporate Event?
When you hire a magician for a corporate event, you are making a strategic investment in how your guests experience your brand. Thomas de Bernède has performed at corporate events for Fortune 500 companies, leading luxury brands, international financial institutions, and exclusive private member clubs — and in every case, the magic served a purpose beyond entertainment.
Break the ice instantly. Close-up magic dissolves social barriers within seconds. Guests who have never met turn to each other in shared astonishment, and conversation flows naturally from there. For networking events, this is transformative.
Make your brand unforgettable. Thomas can incorporate your brand narrative, product launch theme, or company values into bespoke routines — making the magic a vehicle for your message, not just a sideshow.
Signal quality and discernment. The entertainment you choose reflects on your organisation. Thomas de Bernède's presence at your event tells your guests — clients, partners, employees — that you value excellence, creativity, and the power of genuine human connection.
Magic for Every Corporate Occasion
From intimate executive dinners to 300-guest galas, Thomas de Bernède tailors his performance to the scale, atmosphere, and objectives of your event.
Gala Dinners & Award Ceremonies
Elevate your black-tie gala with sophisticated close-up magic that breaks the ice during cocktail hour, entertains between courses at dinner, and creates moments of genuine astonishment that guests discuss long after the evening ends. Thomas has performed at galas for Fortune 500 companies, luxury brands, and exclusive private member clubs across Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas. His presence is elegant, discreet, and calibrated to the refined atmosphere of high-end corporate hospitality.
Product Launches & Brand Activations
When you launch a product, you are not just presenting features — you are creating a moment that must be remembered. Thomas designs bespoke magic routines that incorporate your brand narrative, product attributes, or launch theme into the performance itself. A luxury watch brand launch where time itself seems to bend. A tech keynote where impossible predictions come true. Magic that makes your product unforgettable.
Executive Dinners & VIP Hospitality
For intimate gatherings of 10 to 30 top clients, partners, or board members, Thomas provides the ultimate ice-breaker and conversation catalyst. Close-up magic at an executive dinner is not about spectacle — it is about creating shared moments of wonder that dissolve hierarchies, spark genuine connection, and leave every guest feeling personally valued. Perfect for private dining rooms, Michelin-starred restaurants, and exclusive venues.
International Conferences & Summits
For events spanning multiple days with attendees from around the world, Thomas provides entertainment that transcends language and culture. His multilingual presence (English, French, Spanish, Italian) ensures every guest feels addressed personally, while the universal language of magic creates moments of connection that no keynote speech or panel discussion can replicate. Ideal for welcome receptions, networking breaks, and closing celebrations.
Team Celebrations & Milestones
Mark your company's anniversary, a major milestone, or an exceptional quarter with entertainment that reflects the calibre of your achievement. Thomas has performed at celebrations for unicorn startups, century-old institutions, and everything in between — always tailoring his approach to the culture, energy, and personality of the organisation he is representing.
Private Club & Members Events
Exclusive private member clubs, from London to Geneva to Dubai, trust Thomas to entertain their most discerning members. His magic is the perfect complement to the understated elegance of these environments — sophisticated enough for the most refined audiences, yet warm and engaging enough to make every member feel personally attended to.
What Corporate Clients Say
Thomas performed at three of our executive events across Europe. Each time, he read the room perfectly — adapting his style to suit a room of CEOs at one event, then our creative leadership team at another. His versatility is extraordinary and his professionalism is flawless. He is now our first call for any event requiring premium entertainment.
I hired Thomas for an intimate dinner with twelve of our most important private banking clients. The magic was the perfect conversation catalyst — sophisticated, never intrusive, and genuinely astonishing. Our clients are still mentioning it in follow-up meetings three months later. That is the definition of ROI on entertainment.
For our flagship product launch in Gstaad, Thomas designed routines that incorporated elements of our brand story and the new collection's design language. The result was not just entertainment — it was brand storytelling at its most powerful. Every journalist and VIP guest left with a story they could not wait to share.
Our leadership summit brings together C-suite executives from four continents. Finding entertainment that resonates across cultures is always a challenge. Thomas's magic is genuinely universal — the reactions were identical whether the guest was from Tokyo, London, or San Francisco. He made our networking reception the highlight of the entire summit.
As a venue that hosts the world's most exclusive corporate retreats, we have seen countless entertainers. Thomas de Bernède stands apart. His professionalism rivals that of our most exacting clients, his discretion is absolute, and his magic creates the kind of atmosphere that makes event planners look like geniuses. We recommend him without reservation.
We book entertainment for 300+ guests at our annual gala — a notoriously difficult crowd of business leaders and diplomats. Thomas not only held their attention, he created a buzz that lasted the entire evening. Several members approached me afterwards specifically to ask for his contact details. That has never happened before.

His approach is always the same: arrive early, dress impeccably, understand the room, and deliver performances that make your guests feel — genuinely, personally — that they have witnessed something extraordinary.

Fluent in English, French, and Spanish, with working proficiency in Italian, Thomas connects with international audiences effortlessly.
