Street magic is a term used to describe a style of demonstrating magic illusions where the magician performs in a public space for an unsuspecting audience (such as on a sidewalk) rather than on a stage or within the context of traditional magic performances. The desired effect of street magic is to give the audience a feeling that what they are seeing is impromptu, unrehearsed, and experimental. However, most street magic effects are usually based on much older parlor magic and mentalism principles and techniques.

The term "street magic" was coined by magician David Blaine in his 1997 ABC television special David Blaine: Street Magic.

Street magic most often consists of close-up magic, mentalism, sleight of hand, and card magic.
