Manchester Close up Magician performing at your wedding is a great way to get all your guests talking and is a great ice breaker for a table of guests who may not have met before. Roger has performed at many weddings in and around Sussex and can guarantee you a relaxed, engaging, exiting and professional performance. In my opinion if you are looking for entertainment at a wedding you can’t beat a party magician as an all round entertainer.
Roger has a new offering for house parties called the magic room! Simply assign a room at your party that Roger can setup in and throughout the evening small groups of guests will be treated to a very special performance of magic. Once they have come out, they are not allowed to reveal anything about what occurs in the magic room, This creates a great deal of mystery and provides for a very powerful and moving experience for all your guests.
Price available on request, depending on the size of your party quotes will be from £350

Manchester Event Magician
An event magician is a performer who specializes in entertaining guests at private events such as parties, weddings, and corporate events with magic tricks and illusions. They can perform close-up magic, such as card tricks and coin tricks, as well as larger stage illusions. Event magicians may also provide additional services such as emceeing. Their main goal is to entertain and engage the audience and create a lasting memory or memorable experience for the guests.
How much does a Manchester Magician cost?
Depending on how many guests you are expecting and how much magic you want them to see, prices range from £275 to £995. This could be from an hour of close up magic to a wedding or large corporate event with a cabaret show.
Are you a member of the Magic Circle?
Yes, I have been a member of the Magic Circle, (the world’s most prestigious Magic Society) for many years. You can relax knowing you are hiring a professional Magician.
How long should you hire a Magician for a corporate event?
This all depends on guest numbers and the plan for the evening, but from previous events there is usually a drinks reception and then a sit down meal. Hiring Roger for 3 hours will ensure for an event with up to 150 guests, some people will get a taste of the magic during the drinks reception and then everyone will get a short show at the tables.
For larger events you can always hire a second magician to make sure everyone gets to see the magic. Roger knows and works with many of the Magicians in Manchester and can recommend or hire them on your behalf.
How long should you hire a Magician for a wedding?
This also depends on how many guests you are expecting and what other entertainment you have planned for the day.
Take a look at my Wedding Magician Prices to get a better idea but as a rule of thumb allow 1 hour per 50 guests to ensure everyone gets to see some magic.
What’s your best trick?
You will have to hire me and find out!

Mind reading effects, five spectators all choose a ball from a black bag one of them is the golden ball, everyone keeps their ball to themselves so nobody knows who has got the golden ball. Through a series of questions and analysis of body language Roger will determine who has the golden ball. A very interesting insight into the world of body language.
A £10 note is borrowed and with a few magic moves is folded up and then unfolded – it has changed into a £20 – it then changes into twenty Euros!
