Close Up Magicians

Magicians are experts in creating entertainment and excitement at various events, such as drinks receptions, product launches, networking meetings, corporate dinners, award evenings, weddings, birthday parties, and private gatherings.

Working closely with small groups of people, our magicians seamlessly blend into the crowd, engaging guests with mind-boggling feats that will leave even the most sceptical amazed and filled with wonder.

One of the greatest advantages of hiring a mix and mingle magician is their versatility. They can perform in any setting without the need for a stage, mirrors, or assistants. Instead, they will be right there among your guests, creating unforgettable reactions and experiences.

Our magicians skillfully combine sleight-of-hand, mentalism, and small illusions to captivate and entertain your guests. The intimate nature of their close-up performances adds a powerful element to your event, allowing the magician to perform mind-blowing miracles right in the hands of your guests.

Their repertoire includes impressive tricks using cards, coins, and various objects. They can transform a £10 note into a £20 or £50 note, make someone's ring appear in an impossible location, bend forks in ways never seen before, discreetly remove watches without anyone noticing, and perform award-winning card tricks. These examples are just a glimpse of the incredible and engaging experiences our magicians bring to your event.


So when is the right time to hire a magician?

Drink Receptions - One of the best times to hire a magician is during the drinks reception. Magic entertainment will be performed among your guests as they arrive attracting their attention in small groups. Performing magic at a drinking reception is a deal-breaker and often helps create a buzz and make people talk.

Around Tables - Our magician goes around tables performing a brief magic show for your guests.

After Dinner - Our events magician will perform after the meal and speeches which can last a maximum of 30 minutes. It is advisable that we perform magic after dinner shortly before the dancing session starts.

Conversely, if you are hosting a small dinner, the magician can perform parlour style entertainment for one hour or less. This is a mixture of cabaret magic and table magic that goes down a storm.


STANDARD LENGTH OF PERFORMANCE

2-3 hours


FAQ

How many magicians will I need for my event?
The number of Magicians you needed will depend on how many guests you have at your event.  We recommend approximately 100 guests per magician; this will give each Magician enough time to perform for everyone at the event - during the drinks and dinner. We also book many teams of magicians for larger events.  The biggest booking, we have taken on was for 15 magicians for 1,200 guests.

What do the close­ up magicians wear when performing? 
Our Magicians will attend your event in smart attire.  However, if you have a specific request such as a black tie, tuxedo or even street gear, or you are having a themed event, please inform us at the time of enquiry.

Do your magicians perform at children’s birthday parties? 
No, however, younger children have completely different needs when it comes to entertainment and you need a specialised children’s entertainer (in the same way you wouldn’t book a kid’s entertainer to perform for your corporate clients). Please contact us for more details.

Just wanted to send you a note to say that Rick was just such a rock star on our stand this week at Black Hat Europe.  He is just such a super chap and totally wonderful to work with.  He just rocks up and gets on with things, we had some issues with our cabling and he sorted that out and then just keeps rolling all day.  He chats away with all the ‘customers’ and is a joy to work with.  All our team at Carbon Black, just love him.
