Why hire a magician for your birthday party?
When planning a birthday party, it’s often about creating more than “just” a dinner. Entertainment can bring guests together, create laughter and turn the celebration into an experience they’ll remember long afterwards.
The show works just as well for smaller birthday celebrations as it does for a big milestone birthday with lots of guests.
As a magician and comedian, Anders combines humour, surprising magic and audience participation in a show where the guests don’t just watch – they become part of the experience.
- Turn your birthday into an experience your guests will remember
- Gets your guests involved in a fun and comfortable way
- Create laughter and a great atmosphere from the very beginning
That’s why so many choose Anders for their birthday party
Anders has been entertaining at private parties and birthday celebrations for more than 15 years, creating fun and engaging experiences for both small gatherings and larger birthday parties. His show combines modern magic, comedy and audience participation in a style that is personal, energetic and down-to-earth.
The entertainment is tailored to your birthday party and works just as well as a fun feature before, during or after the meal.
Anders’ goal is not just to entertain, but to create shared experiences and moments that the guests keep talking about long after the party is over.
Magician and comedian in the same show
Anders is both a magician and a comedian, and the guests get both in a single performance. He has performed at Comedy Zoo and at private parties for more than 15 years, and the two have grown together into one show.
For a birthday party that means the entertainment can reach everyone. The magic catches all of them, whatever their age, and the comedy holds the adults between the tricks. So you do not have to choose between booking a comedian for the birthday or a magician.
The birthday guest usually plays a part in the show, without it ever getting awkward. Anders is happy to bring them up front, but never to make fun of them, only to make them the main character in something none of the guests can explain afterwards.

Which entertainment suits your birthday party?
There are many ways to create a fun and memorable birthday party. Anders can perform a show for all your guests, entertain them with close-up magic or combine the two.
Magic show for the whole group
A shared magic show brings all the birthday guests together for a fun experience where magic, comedy and audience participation go hand in hand. It works perfectly as a shared highlight of the celebration, where both the birthday person and their guests can join in and enjoy plenty of laughs together.
Close-up magic among the guests
With close-up magic, Anders gets right up close to the guests and performs magic right in front of them. It works particularly well during the welcome, reception or between other parts of the celebration, giving guests the chance to experience fun and magical moments up close.
Show + close-up magic
Want the best of both worlds? A full magic show can be combined with close-up magic, giving your guests both a fun shared experience and magical moments right up close. A great option if you want entertainment to play a bigger part in your birthday celebration.
Which milestone birthday are you celebrating?
A 30th birthday and a 70th birthday are two very different parties, and the show is pitched accordingly.
18, 25 and 30 years
The younger milestone birthdays are often held late, and the mood is high long before the show begins. That is actually an advantage here. The combination of magic and stand-up is built for an audience that makes itself heard, and it only gets better when someone shouts back. The show works best as a shared feature once the guests have got going.
40, 50 and 60 years
The classic milestone birthday, where colleagues, friends and family are all in the same room. The company is mixed, and that means the humour has to reach everyone. Anders is happy to read up on who the birthday guest is, so there are a couple of references only the closest will get. The show usually sits before or after dinner, when everyone is together.
70, 75 and 80 years
At the biggest milestone birthdays there are often three generations present, from grandchildren to contemporaries. Magic is one of the few kinds of entertainment all three can follow at the same time. The show is usually placed earlier in the evening and at a calmer pace, without being any less funny.
