Magicians in Cornwall
Close-up magicians for weddings and parties in Cornwall
Magic gives guests something to talk about for the rest of the day. Across Cornwall, close-up magicians work the drinks reception and the tables at the wedding breakfast, breaking the ice between guests who haven't met before.
Across Cornwall, magicians are booked for weddings and events in and around Truro, Falmouth and Newquay. Venues in the area include Pengenna Manor, Tregenna Castle Resort and Eden Project, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Other venues in the area include Polhawn Fort, Tredudwell Manor and Boconnoc House, and each has its own venue page further down.
Close-up magicians perform card tricks, sleight of hand and mind-reading effects a few inches from your guests, moving from group to group so everyone gets a turn. Some also perform a short stand-up set for the whole room.

A close-up magician moves between groups, spending a few minutes with each and performing tricks with borrowed items as well as cards. For larger weddings, tell us the guest numbers so we can make sure the booking is long enough for everyone to see them.
Expect to pay from around £350 up to £800. A single drinks reception slot sits at the lower end, while a magician covering the drinks reception and the wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.
Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performer you would be booking, with videos, audio, a repertoire list and reviews. Between them you can get a clear sense of the act well before the day.
