The Right Magician, Wherever Your Event Takes Place
When the entertainment matters, you don't have to limit your choice to whoever happens to be closest.
Matthew travels throughout the UK for weddings, corporate events, private celebrations and specialist bookings — bringing the same professional approach to every event, wherever it takes place.
From Cornwall and Devon to Manchester, Liverpool, London and Wales, years of travelling professionally mean long-distance bookings are simply part of the job. Matthew plans his journey carefully, arrives in plenty of time and brings everything required to perform.

If Matthew accepts your booking, there isn't an additional travel fee simply because your event is further away.
Travel, arrival and equipment are planned around your event, not left until the last minute.

Manchester United, Chelsea, Lord's Cricket Ground and major sporting events.

The venue changes. The audience changes. The aim remains the same — entertainment that feels right for the people in the room.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT ENTERTAINMENT
One Magician. Very Different Events.
The best magic isn't simply a collection of tricks. It needs to fit the occasion, the audience and the way your event actually works.
WEDDINGS
Magic That Fits Around Your Wedding
Wedding magic works best when it becomes part of the day rather than taking it over. Close-up entertainment can add energy while photographs are taking place, bring tables together during the wedding breakfast and entertain guests who aren't on the dance floor later in the evening.
For couples wanting more help with the flow of the day, Matthew also offers professional wedding hosting alongside the magic.

CORPORATE & CLOSE-UP
Give Guests Something Worth Talking About
At dinners, awards evenings, Christmas celebrations and networking events, close-up magic creates an easy reason for people to interact without interrupting the occasion.
The style can change with the audience — from visual sleight of hand to mind reading and interactive magic — allowing the performance to feel natural rather than identical from group to group.

CABARET & AFTER-DINNER
Bring Everyone Together
When the occasion calls for everyone to watch together, a cabaret or after-dinner performance creates a completely different experience from close-up magic.
The show can work in a compact function room or on a conventional stage, making it particularly suited to dinners, celebrations and events that need a strong shared finale.
Explore Magic ShowsAt an intimate dinner or house party, entertainment can happen in relaxed bursts — leaving plenty of time for conversation, food and drinks between performances.
