Mentalists for Hire in Ottawa
From a scripted stage prediction that leaves an entire conference room speechless to intimate walk-around mind reading during cocktail hour, Encore Talent books Ottawa’s top mentalists for corporate events, galas, weddings and private parties.
Mentalists, done right for Ottawa events
A great mentalist doesn’t just perform a trick — they read a room, connect with total strangers, and leave everyone asking “how did he know that?” long after the event ends. Encore Talent represents Ottawa’s top mentalists across every format: a scripted stage show built around a bold, sealed prediction and audience participation, or intimate walk-around mind reading that mingles through a cocktail reception one small group at a time.
Every mentalist on our roster has been personally vetted for polish, crowd control and genuine “how is that possible” moments — not just card tricks with a mystical spin. Whether you need a 20-minute prediction reveal as the highlight of a conference general session or 90 minutes of roaming mind reading at a gala, we’ll match you with the right performer and handle logistics start to finish.

Mentalists booking questions
How much does it cost to hire a mentalist in Ottawa?
Pricing depends on format (walk-around vs. stage), performance length and event date. Most corporate stage bookings start in the low four figures; tell us your event details on the quote form and we’ll send exact pricing within one business day.
What’s the difference between a mentalist and a magician?
A magician’s focus is sleight-of-hand and visual illusion; a mentalist creates the impression of reading minds, predicting outcomes and influencing choices — using psychology, showmanship and audience interaction rather than props and cards. Many of our performers blend both skill sets into one show.
How much space does a stage mentalism show need?
Most stage shows work comfortably with a 12×12 ft performance area, though we can tailor the show to smaller footprints — just let us know your venue layout.
Do you provide mentalists outside Ottawa?
Yes, our roster regularly travels across Eastern Ontario and into Gatineau, QC. Travel fees may apply outside the immediate Ottawa area.
