GENUINE LOCAL EXPERIENCE
Performing Across Peterborough
I've performed at weddings, corporate events, private celebrations and special occasions throughout Peterborough and the surrounding area.
That local experience means this isn't simply a page saying I travel to Peterborough — these are venues and events where I've genuinely worked and entertained guests.
THE BULL HOTEL • PETERBOROUGH
Real Events. Real Local Experience.
The Bull Hotel is one of the Peterborough venues where I've performed, entertaining guests as part of events in the city.
Haycock Hotel
Another established venue in the Peterborough area where I've had the pleasure of performing.
Elton Furze Golf Club
From golf clubs and hotels to private venues, close-up magic works naturally around guests and the atmosphere of the occasion.

Wedding Magic in Peterborough
Close-up magic is a natural fit for weddings — bringing guests together during the drinks reception, filling the gaps between photographs and dinner, and creating unforgettable moments around the tables.
ORTON HALL HOTEL • PETERBOROUGH
Entertainment That Fits Around the Day
I've performed at Orton Hall Hotel in Peterborough for events including celebrations and company functions.
At a wedding, close-up magic can be woven naturally through the drinks reception or wedding breakfast, keeping guests entertained without interrupting the flow of the day.

PETERBOROUGH MARRIOTT
Creating the Moments Between the Moments
I've also performed at Peterborough Marriott, another local venue suited to weddings, dinners and larger celebrations.
Some of the best reactions happen during the parts of the day when guests are simply relaxing together — which is exactly where close-up magic works best.
Drinks Reception
Break the ice while photographs are taking place and give guests an immediate shared experience.
Wedding Breakfast
Table magic creates energy around the room and keeps guests entertained between courses.
Evening Guests
Bring daytime and evening guests together as the celebration moves naturally into the night.

JOHN LEWIS • PETERBOROUGH
Entertainment That Gets People Talking
My Peterborough work has included entertaining at John Lewis, bringing interactive close-up magic directly to people in a busy commercial environment.
That's one of the strengths of close-up magic for corporate events: it doesn't need a theatre or formal stage. It can happen right among your guests, creating instant reactions, conversation and shared experiences.

I've also performed at The Cresset in Peterborough, providing interactive entertainment at a larger event in one of the city's established event venues.

PETERBOROUGH • GENUINE LOCAL EXPERIENCE
A Performing History in Peterborough
Some of my Peterborough performances go beyond one-off events. Over the years I've entertained at a wide variety of occasions in and around the city — including many home games and special events at Peterborough United.
PETERBOROUGH UNITED FOOTBALL CLUB
Magic at Peterborough United
I've had the pleasure of performing at Peterborough United on many home match days, entertaining guests at the club before and around the football.
It's a very different environment from a wedding or private party, but that's exactly where close-up magic works so well: moving naturally between groups, creating reactions and giving people another memorable part of their day.
A MEMORABLE PETERBOROUGH UNITED EVENT
Performing for Harry Redknapp
One particularly memorable event at Peterborough United gave me the opportunity to perform close-up magic for Harry Redknapp.
Harry was great fun to entertain and really enjoyed the magic. It's one of many memorable occasions I've been fortunate enough to be part of while performing in Peterborough.
AND A FEW UNUSUAL NIGHTS ALONG THE WAY...
Magic, Football & the World Cup
THE BLACK HORSE • PETERBOROUGH AREA
Even During an England World Cup Game
One particularly memorable Peterborough-area booking was at the Black Horse during a World Cup evening when England were playing.
The match was being shown on a large projector screen while I performed close-up magic around the venue — a great example of entertainment working around an event rather than taking it over.
Entertainment for guests at Peterborough United.
From football functions to memorable celebrity performances.
Flexible entertainment designed around the occasion.
