Auckland Magician Mick Peck
Three decades of creating unforgettable experiences
Thanks for visiting my website.
For more than 30 years, I've had the privilege of creating laughter, amazement and unforgettable moments for audiences throughout New Zealand.
I presented my first public magic show in 1994 while I was still at school. Today, I'm fortunate to be a full-time professional magician, performing at corporate events, private celebrations, weddings and special occasions throughout New Zealand.
Over the years, I've entertained thousands of guests, from intimate family celebrations to major corporate events, and I've learned that great entertainment is about much more than simply knowing amazing tricks.
It's about understanding people.
It's about reading the room, creating genuine connections and making sure every guest feels included in the experience.
That's why so many of my bookings come from repeat clients and word-of-mouth recommendations.
People don't just remember the magic...
They remember how the experience made them feel.

What Makes My Performances Different
After more than three decades as a professional entertainer, I've learned that the best performances aren't just about the tricks.
They're about creating moments people genuinely enjoy.
Whether I'm performing close-up magic amongst guests or presenting a full comedy magic show, I focus on making the experience:
• Professional and reliable
• Fun and engaging
• Interactive without making anyone uncomfortable
• Suitable for a wide range of audiences
I pride myself on being flexible, easy to work with and focused on making your event a success.
In fact, this attention to detail and commitment to service was recognised with my Auckland Chamber of Commerce Awesome Service Award.
My goal is simple:
To make you look good by creating entertainment your guests will love and talk about long after the event has finished.

— David Hartnell MNZM
“Thanks for a fantastic walkaround show you did at our company Christmas party. The feedback from the team was amazing and they are still talking about it today. We all particularly enjoyed the interaction, you slotted in with the groups very well and we were all amazed by your skilled performances. It was an ideal way to surprise and delight our team before dinner and I highly recommend the experience to others.”
— Craig van Asch, Managing Director, Exeloo
“The show Mick did for our annual Milk Test New Zealand leadership awards really was spectacular! I had people coming up to me after the show saying they still couldn't believe what they saw. Mick was highly professional, funny and a natural on stage.”
— Ingeborg Pfeiffer, Milk Test New Zealand Limited
“Hi Mick thank you for making our event so memorable, I have had lots of feedback from our staff to say how much they enjoyed it. Your communication was excellent with quick responses to my questions which made organising so much easier... Overall you helped to make our event special and a big success, THANK YOU!”
— Leslee Mennie, Life Health Foods Ltd
“We hired Mick for our mid year staff function... We were ALL very wowed with Mick's performance. His tricks are amazing and we certainly could not work out how he did them. We absolutely loved the entertainment and almost a week later we are all still talking about the show.”
— Maree Keane, FoodCo New Zealand Limited
"Hi Mick, just wanted to say thanks again for your performance at our wedding. Everyone has raved about how brilliant and funny you were - and people are still trying to figure out how you do the things you do! I'll be honest and say my wife was hesitant at first about hiring a magician for entertainment (as opposed to a musician) - but she was blown away with the positive response from everyone! People said you engaged the groups really well and encouraged participation - but didn't force yourself into any groups. I would highly recommend you for future events of any description given your diverse range of tricks and ability to converse with a wide range of people. Thanks again for assisting in making our wedding a huge success and kicking off the day in an entertaining way."
— Ben and Sally Francis, Kohimarama
