Three ways John can fit your Ottawa event.

Use the format that matches where your event needs energy, connection, or one shared highlight.

Close-up magic

John moves through the room creating impossible moments with small groups. Best for arrivals, cocktail hour, networking, receptions, table visits, and wedding photo time.

Best shared highlight

Stand-up magic show

A clean, interactive room-wide show with magic and mind reading. Best after dinner, after speeches, during company celebrations, awards nights, and holiday parties.

Quick answers

Before you ask about your Ottawa date.

What type of Ottawa events is John best for?

Corporate receptions, holiday parties, client appreciation events, weddings, galas, private celebrations, restaurants, and dinner events are strong fits. John can recommend close-up magic, a stand-up magic show, or both based on the event flow.

How much does it cost to hire John Ha for an Ottawa event?

Packages start at $1,500 for close-up magic or a stand-up magic show. The full-event package with both formats starts at $2,500. Travel, timing, and availability are confirmed for the specific date and venue.

Can close-up magic work during cocktail hour or guest arrivals?

Yes. That is one of the best uses of close-up magic because guests are already standing, mingling, waiting for food, or meeting people. The magic gives them an easy reason to gather, laugh, and start conversations.

What is a stand-up magic show?

A stand-up magic show is a shared room-wide performance with interactive magic and mind reading, usually after dinner, speeches or a key transition.
