Magician in Chester
Weddings · Parties · Corporate Events
I'm Nick Rushton, and Chester is right on my doorstep. Based locally in Cheshire, I regularly perform close-up magic at weddings, parties and corporate events across the city. I'm a former Magic Circle Young Magician of the Year winner and I've appeared on BBC One, Channel 5 and Sky.
Close-Up Magician in Chester
Chester is a beautiful city with some stunning event venues. From weddings at Chester Racecourse and Carden Park to corporate events at The Chester Grosvenor and parties across the city — I know the local venues inside out.
I cover all of Chester and the surrounding area including Ellesmere Port, Neston, Tarporley, Malpas and into North Wales. I'm based locally, so there are no extra travel costs.
Hiring a Magician in Chester
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.
Chester Venues I've Performed At
I've been lucky enough to perform at many of Chester's top venues including Chester Racecourse, Carden Park Hotel, The Chester Grosvenor, Oddfellows, Rowton Hall, Nunsmere Hall, Doubletree by Hilton Chester, Peckforton Castle, Craxton Wood, The Queen at Chester, Macdonald Craxton Wood and many more.
Chester Wedding Magician
Wedding magic is one of my specialities. Chester's historic hotels and country house venues make for incredible weddings, and close-up magic during the drinks reception is the perfect way to keep guests entertained while photos are being taken.
Corporate Magician Chester
I regularly perform at corporate events across Chester — conferences, awards dinners, product launches, team-building events and Christmas parties.

I've been a professional magician for over 29 years and have never let anyone down. All bookings are confirmed in writing, and I have Public Liability Insurance through Equity.
