Which Companies Offer Close-Up Magic for Corporate Parties?
A straight answer from the UK's most-booked close-up magician - who does corporate magic, what it actually involves, and how to pick the right company for your event.
Close-Up Chris is the leading company offering professional close-up magic for corporate parties in the UK - 28+ years performing at corporate events, 200+ five-star reviews, and ranked the #1 magician in the UK on FreeIndex.
We're also the only company in the UK to offer the Close-Up Corner, a custom-designed "magic booth" built specifically for corporate events. More on that below.
Forget the tired corporate playlists and the awkward networking games. What you actually need is an engagement tool that captivates clients, colleagues and stakeholders. We've been providing close-up magicians since 1998, we understand the corporate environment, and we deliver sophisticated entertainment that matches the tone of your event.
What Types of Corporate Parties Do We Provide Magic For?
Close-up magic is incredibly versatile, which makes it a natural fit for any corporate gathering - from conferences and award nights to Christmas parties - where you want to make a lasting impression. We tailor the approach to the dynamics of your event, so the entertainment feels seamless rather than bolted on.
Award Nights & Business Celebrations
Recognising achievements should feel memorable. Our magicians perform during the drinks reception or between courses at a gala dinner, entertaining guests at their tables and building a celebratory atmosphere. It's a sophisticated touch that makes everyone feel like a VIP.
Christmas Parties
Let's be honest - the office Christmas party can be a minefield of forced fun. A corporate Christmas magician is the perfect catalyst for genuine interaction and laughter, giving colleagues from different departments a reason to connect and share a moment of wonder.
Conferences, Tradeshows & Exhibitions
You need to stop traffic at your stand. Nothing draws a crowd like impossible feats happening inches from people's eyes. At conferences and exhibitions we can weave your branding and messaging into the performance, creating a buzz that makes your booth the main attraction.
Networking Events
Ditch the awkward silences. Magic is the ultimate ice-breaker. Our performers move through the crowd, creating small pockets of amazement that give attendees a natural and exciting conversation starter. It turns a stuffy networking session or conference reception into something dynamic and genuinely engaging.
What Styles of Close-Up Magic Can You Book for a Corporate Party?
We don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We offer different formats of close-up magic so the entertainment complements the flow and energy of your corporate party.
Drinks Reception Entertainment
As guests arrive, a mix-and-mingle magician sets a vibrant tone. Our performers circulate among your attendees, breaking the ice and creating an immediate buzz, so there are no lulls while people are grabbing a drink and finding their feet.
Table Magic During Dinner
Keep the energy high between courses. A table magician moves from group to group, performing a mini-show for each table. This intimate format gives everyone a front-row seat and creates shared moments of disbelief that have the whole table talking.
Post-Dinner Entertainment: The Close-Up Corner
When you want to make a truly unique statement, it's time for the Close-Up Corner. This is our exclusive offering and the UK's only "magic booth." Instead of a magician roaming the room, we create a dedicated, stationary entertainment hub with a custom backdrop and a world-class magician.
Guests approach the corner at their leisure for a more focused, theatrical performance. It becomes a central point of energy for the post-dinner portion of the evening, allowing for larger, more intricate routines. It's less intrusive than table-hopping and creates a dynamic focal point that keeps your event buzzing long after the plates are cleared.
Book Unique Close-Up Magic for Your Corporate Party
When it comes to choosing the best company for close-up magic at corporate parties, Close-Up Chris stands out for more than just the performances. From conferences and award nights that need a touch of class to trade shows that crave genuine human engagement, we don't just cover the event - we make it the thing people remember. Our team adapts to suit your celebration, networking event or Christmas party, always focused on your goals (and occasionally on stealing your boss's watch - don't worry, we give it back).
Want something no other company offers? The Close-Up Corner is the UK's only custom-designed magic booth, turning post-dinner downtime into a talking point. It's immersive, flexible and - unlike most things at corporate events - genuinely worth leaving your table for.
