Weddings · Parties · Corporate Events

I'm Nick Rushton, and I regularly perform at weddings, parties and corporate events across Cumbria and the Lake District. Close-up magic works beautifully in country house hotels, lakeside wedding venues and busy corporate dinners because it gives guests an instant shared moment to talk about.

Hiring a Magician in Cumbria

Close-up magic is a brilliant ice breaker at a wedding, party or corporate event because it happens right in your guests' hands. It fills the natural pauses in the day, keeps the room lively and gives people who have never met an easy reason to start talking.

Cumbria Venues I Cover

I perform at venues across Cumbria and Cumbria, including Armathwaite Hall, Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa, Inn on the Lake, Storrs Hall, Askham Hall, Broadoaks Country House, Holbeck Ghyll, The Belsfield, Merewood Country House Hotel and Dalston Hall. I am equally comfortable in country houses, barns, hotels, conference venues, restaurants and private homes.

Wedding Magician in Cumbria

For weddings, the drinks reception is the most popular time for close-up magic. It keeps guests entertained while photos are being taken, then table magic between courses can keep the energy high through the wedding breakfast.

Corporate and Party Magic

For corporate events and private parties, I can mix and mingle during arrivals, perform around tables, or work the room at an evening reception. The aim is simple: make the event feel easier, warmer and more memorable.
