FAQs
How many magicians do I need for my event?
We recommend one magician per 100 guests to ensure everyone gets a chance to experience the magic. For larger events, we can provide teams of magicians - our biggest booking to date featured 15 magicians performing for 1,200 guests!
What will the magician wear?
Our magicians always dress smartly, but if you have a specific dress code or themed event, just let us know! Whether it’s black tie, tuxedos, streetwear, or a custom costume, we’ll match the look of your event.
Do your magicians perform at children’s birthday parties?
Our close-up magicians specialise in sophisticated, high-end magic for corporate and private events, so they do not perform at children’s parties. If you need a dedicated children’s entertainer, we’re happy to recommend one!

I recently hired Chosen Events Entertainment to help bring some fun and flair to our drinks reception, and they absolutely delivered. From start to finish, their service was seamless, professional, and refreshingly creative. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Chosen Events Entertainment and will definitely be using them again for future events.

Line Dancers (Supreme)
It was the first time that the Club has used a similar service and the dancers were excellent and also able to flex their approach to meet our needs (as the stage space was limited and headset mics in short supply). We captured some fantastic photos that show just how much our employees enjoyed the event and all the dancers were friendly and helpful. It helped us to get into the party spirit and also set the Western theme/tone really well
