Entertainment in Toronto & the GTA: prices and how to compare

Magicians, circus, music, comedy, kids' acts and roaming performers.

12 of 14 listings here are owned or represented by the founder's companies and are marked. Independent businesses list free.

Entertainment is the line item guests remember and the one most often booked last. This directory covers every category working in the GTA, from a close-up magician for a 40-person dinner to a full circus program for a 1,000-guest gala. Each profile lists the act's formats, starting prices, event types served, technical requirements (stage, ceiling height, rigging, power) and whether insurance is on file.

Not sure what fits? Run the entertainment finder or read magician vs mentalist. Listings owned by the founder of EventPlans.ca carry a visible disclosure and no ranking preference.
