Magician in Cheshire
Weddings · Parties · Corporate Events
I'm Nick Rushton, and I'm based right here in Cheshire. With over 30 years of experience performing close-up magic at weddings, parties and corporate events, I'm a former Magic Circle Young Magician of the Year winner and I've appeared on BBC One, Channel 5 and Sky.
Your Local Cheshire Magician
I know the local Cheshire venues inside out — from Peckforton Castle and Nunsmere Hall to Colshaw Hall and The Mere Golf Resort. I've performed at most of the county's top wedding and corporate event venues, and I know exactly how to make the most of each space.
I cover all of Cheshire including Chester, Crewe, Congleton, Nantwich, Knutsford, Wilmslow, Macclesfield, Sandbach, Northwich, Winsford, Tarporley, Prestbury, Poynton, Neston and surrounding areas.
Hiring a Magician in Cheshire
Close-up magic is the perfect ice breaker — at a wedding, corporate event or party, not all your guests will know each other. Magic creates an instant shared experience that gets everyone talking and laughing together. My style is relaxed and fun — nobody is ever made to feel embarrassed or uncomfortable.
How to Choose a Cheshire Magician
When choosing a magician, keep in mind that a fancy website doesn't always mean a great performance. It's vital to read genuine reviews and watch unedited live video footage to get an idea of what you'll actually get on the day. I'm always happy to have a friendly, no-pressure conversation about your event.

I've been lucky enough to perform at many of Cheshire's finest venues including Peckforton Castle, Nunsmere Hall, Colshaw Hall, The Mere Golf Resort & Spa, Rookery Hall, Carden Park, Capesthorne Hall, Combermere Abbey, Crewe Hall, Styal Lodge, Adlington Hall, Mere Court Hotel, Statham Lodge, Cranage Hall, Delamere Manor, Shrigley Hall and many more.

Cheshire Wedding Magician
Weddings are one of my specialities. The drinks reception is the most popular time — it fills the gap while photos are being taken and keeps guests entertained. Table magic between courses of the wedding breakfast works brilliantly too. Many couples book me for the evening reception as well.
Corporate Magician Cheshire
I regularly perform at corporate events across Cheshire — conferences, awards dinners, product launches, team-building events and Christmas parties. Close-up magic is a fantastic networking tool and always gets people talking.
Reliability & Professionalism
I've been a professional magician for over 29 years and have never let anyone down. All bookings are confirmed in writing, final details are checked around a week before the event, and I always arrive early and smartly presented. I have Public Liability Insurance through Equity.
