If you are an actively performing professional sword swallower and would like to be added to this list, please contact us with photos, videos or other verification of yourself swallowing a sword, complete the sword swallower information survey and SSAI membership application to join the Sword Swallowers Association Int'l (SSAI).

Want to Book a Sword Swallower?

Want to book a sword swallower? Each of our SSAI sword swallower members is a mult-talented individual capable of putting on a first-rate performance. Whether you are looking for a circus/sideshow-inspired performance, a world-class Vegas style act, a show with Middle Eastern flair, or an abstract piece of performance art, we have just the right act for you. Simply let us know the details of where, when and what type of performance you're interested in and what kind of budget you have, and we will contact the appropriate SSAI member sword swallowers to help you secure the perfect match for your event.

(Due to the limited number of sword swallowers around the world and the extremely dangerous nature of this life-threatening stunt, prices for individual performers' shows can range from $600-$6000/show, and depending on the individual performer, may or may not include other stunts such as fire-eating, bed of nails, blockhead, etc.)
