Hiring a Magician in Cardiff
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. With magic on TV being so popular, people are more receptive than ever to great close-up magic performed well.
Cardiff Venues I've Performed At
I've been lucky enough to perform at many venues across Cardiff including Cardiff Castle, Miskin Manor, Hensol Castle, The Parkgate Hotel, St David's Hotel, Mercure Holland House, and venues across Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan.
How to Choose a Cardiff 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.
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.
