Magicians have broad appeal - they’re flexible to set up in different locations and most shows are suitable for all ages. Most importantly, magicians can really help set the vibe in a way that no other party entertainment, bringing a sense of wonder and awe to your party.
A magician always has something up their sleeve! From card tricks, levitation, vanishing acts, and pulling obscure items from a seemingly bottomless hat - their unique magic tricks and illusions will keep everyone guessing.
Every magician has their favourite tricks and the entertainment they provide is unique. They could include a stand-up comedy routine, act out a puppet show, or dress-up as a favourite character. Some also work with other entertainers like face painters for an extra special party. Magicians that specialise in corporate events will have honed their skills to become master illusionists, making every trick look like magic.
Most magical shows last for about 45-60 minutes. Your magician may stay at your party longer if you’ve booked them as a roving entertainer or if they’re offering additional services like balloon animals or disco parties.

They’ll perform a stage show including disappearing acts, advanced magic tricks, and astonishing illusions that will keep even the most sceptical partygoers captivated.
Roving entertainment
Many magicians offer a roving entertainment option where they can perform magic tricks on the go. This is perfect for events like stand-up functions or in a location with limited space for a stage. Your magician will encourage audience interaction and participation by moving amongst the crowd and responding to their questions and requests. A roving magician makes the perfect ice-breaker for your guests and will get everyone in the mood for a fun celebration.
Interactive magical shows
All good magical shows are interactive, with a healthy dose of audience participation. No matter the format of your function or event, an experienced magician will read their audience and make small tweaks to their show to ensure an enjoyable and memorable experience for all guests.
