Here’s a blog article on MY OWN WEDDING and why entertainment was key to our SUPERB day

Corporate occasions need not be stuffy events – hire an incredible Close Up Magician to wow the troupes. Great for award nights, impressing new and existing clients or for novel entertainment for the Christmas party. Close-Up Magic can be the perfect icebreaker!

With countless events under my belt, I know the drill! I’ve experienced every type of audience and performing condition.

 

For large events, I have collaborated with a superb selection of other professional magicians whom I can call upon to help spread the magic.

 

As a rough rule of thumb, one magician near Derby can cover 80-100 guests over two hours. If your expected crowd is over 100 guests, hiring a second award-winning magician will be a good idea.

Types of events close-up magic/hand magic can be used for are:

A Drinks Reception
Table Magic during the meal
At a Gala
A Company Anniversary
A Tradeshow
An Awards night

Close-up magic is a great way to encourage audience participation and ensures your corporate event has a fantastic atmosphere.

Are you on the hunt for a birthday party magician near Derby?

I love a good party! If you’re celebrating a milestone party, send me an invite! I’ll entertain your guests with outstanding magic and entertainment—the type that produces “Oh my God’s,” “WTF’s,” and other obscenities!

Hiring a mix-and-mingle magician is great for house parties, but let me introduce you to the Room of Mystery (see this page). This is the most INCREDIBLE format to guarantee memories long remembered after the Amaretto Sours have worn off!

I also offer the “Close-Up Corner” format. This is the BEST way to utilise a close-up magician.

Presenting the magic in this way helps eradicate some of the issues faced by parties: loud music, low light, interrupting guests and really helps draw the best in your magician and his audience!

Magician Derbyshire Prices

 

Firstly, if you’re looking for cheap, I’m not him! I understand everyone has a budget, but if yours is limited, I advise saving your pennies.

Expect to pay from £500 for a professional Derbyshire Close-up Magician. This is a rough guide though with other elements affecting the fee (date of event, location etc.).

If you’ve received a quote that is significantly less than £500, be sure to check for recent reviews. If you can’t find any, that should be enough to start the alarm bells!
