Magician in Newcastle
Weddings · Parties · Corporate Events
I'm Nick Rushton, and I regularly perform at events across Newcastle. From weddings on the Quayside to corporate events at The Sage Gateshead, close-up magic is perfect entertainment. I'm a former Magic Circle Young Magician of the Year winner and I've appeared on BBC One, Channel 5 and Sky.

Hiring a Magician in Newcastle
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.
Newcastle Venues I've Performed At
I've been lucky enough to perform at many of Newcastle's top venues including Newcastle Civic Centre, The Vermont Hotel, Hilton Newcastle Gateshead, Blackfriars Restaurant, The Biscuit Factory, BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, The Sage Gateshead, Linden Hall and many more.
Newcastle Wedding Magician
Wedding magic in Newcastle works beautifully during the drinks reception — filling the gap while the couple have their photos taken — with table magic between courses of the wedding breakfast and entertainment into the evening.
Corporate Magician Newcastle
I regularly perform at corporate events across Newcastle and Gateshead — conferences, awards dinners, product launches, team-building events and Christmas parties. Close-up magic is a natural ice-breaker for networking and drinks receptions.
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.
