Steve Faulkner is a professional magician who has performed for over a million people around the world. He began his career on the streets of London’s Covent Garden-one of the toughest places to earn an audience-where performers must hold the attention of hundreds or give up their spot. From those early days, Steve went on to win the British Street Performing Championship, British Close-up Magic Championship and won second place in the prestigious Magic Circle Close-up Magician of the Year.

Steve has performed backstage for global acts like the Arctic Monkeys, appeared in a Spice Girls video, and been invited to the legendary Magic Castle in Hollywood. He also holds a world record achieved while promoting the movie Inception.

In addition to his performance career, Steve is the founder of onlinemagic.co, one of the world’s first and most respected online training platforms for magicians, used by hundreds of performers globally.

Today, Steve is also a sought-after speaker and trainer for businesses, where he teaches the principles of presence, persuasion, and performance, drawing from three decades of experience in high-stakes live entertainment.
