Josh Pele isn’t just a magician, he’s a phenomenon redefining what live entertainment means in the 21st century. With spellbinding performances that blend sleight of hand, psychological illusion, and cultural sensitivity, Josh has emerged as one of the most innovative figures in the global entertainment industry. Whether on stage at high-profile events or mingling with guests at private gatherings, he delivers magic that resonates.
For Josh, performing magic is more than a craft; it’s a way to create meaningful, unforgettable experiences. His shows are tailor-made for each audience, balancing spontaneity with precision. From jaw-dropping illusions for intimate celebrity parties to immersive experiences at major venues like MetLife Stadium and festivals like Electric Zoo, Josh’s performances leave lasting impressions. His client list reads like a red carpet lineup, including stars like 50 Cent, Jaden Smith, Robin Thicke, Usher, and A$AP Rocky.
What sets Josh apart is his belief that connection is the real magic. “It’s not just about tricking people,” he says. “It’s about making them feel something extraordinary.” This philosophy shines through every act, ensuring each performance is one of a kind.
Josh’s talents extend far beyond the U.S. border. A true citizen of the world, he has performed across Europe, Central America, and beyond. His linguistic prowess, performing in over 20 languages makes each show deeply personal, regardless of where it’s staged. Whether dazzling audiences in Guatemala or learning Swedish in 30 days for a performance in Stockholm, Josh brings cultural fluency into his routines like few entertainers can.
He’s currently preparing for a performance in Nigeria, where he’ll add Yoruba to his growing list of languages, further emphasizing his commitment to connecting with audiences in the most intimate and respectful ways possible.
Before becoming a magician, Josh was a Division 1 soccer player with dreams of a professional career. After an injury ended that path, he pivoted with the same passion and drive, discovering a new calling in the art of magic during travels through Italy. What began as impromptu street performances quickly evolved into a world-class act. Josh’s athletic discipline, coupled with his flair for storytelling, helped him rise rapidly through the ranks of professional entertainers.
Fame hasn’t distanced Josh from his values. Deeply committed to social impact, he lends his talents to charitable organizations like America’s Grow a Row, Relay for Life, and Glasswing International. Whether fundraising through performance or mentoring youth, Josh uses his platform to inspire and uplift.
With millions of online views and a growing global fanbase, Josh is expanding his magic empire through a new “Magic Kits” series. These interactive kits invite fans behind the curtain, empowering them to learn tricks and spark their own creativity.
