Hiring a Magician in the North West

I regularly perform at events across the North West and have done for many years. Close-up magic is the perfect entertainment for any event — it's personal, interactive, and creates genuine moments of amazement that your guests will be talking about long after the event.

I've performed at some of the North West's finest wedding venues and know them inside out. Read my insider venue guides for Peckforton Castle, Alcumlow Wedding Barn, Crewe Hall, Knowsley Hall, Bartle Hall, Ashfield House, Heaton House Farm and The Ashes Barns.

What Type of Events Do I Perform At?

I perform at weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, anniversary celebrations, Christmas parties, charity fundraisers and private dinners across the North West. My magic includes close-up card magic, mind reading, pickpocket comedy and fork bending — all performed right in your guests' hands.

Why Book a Close-Up Magician?

Close-up magic is the perfect ice breaker. It gets everyone talking, creates a shared experience and works brilliantly at any event — from intimate gatherings to large-scale functions. I don't need a stage, PA system or any setup. I simply mingle with your guests and perform right in front of them.

When choosing a magician, always check genuine reviews and watch unedited live video — it's the best way to know what you're actually booking.
