Magicians in Kent
Close-up magicians for weddings and parties in Kent
A close-up magician is one of the best ways to keep guests entertained while the photos are being taken. In Kent, magicians are booked for drinks receptions, wedding breakfasts, corporate events and parties, moving between groups and performing tricks right in front of them.
Kent has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Hever Castle and Cooling Castle Barn to Preston Court. Our magicians travel to towns across the area, including Canterbury, Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. Further down this page are more local venues, such as One Warwick Park, The Beacon and The Old Kent Barn, with details of each.
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.
Prices usually start from around £350 and go up to £800 or so. 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. Your quote shows the full price for your date, so you can compare acts on the same basis.
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.
Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.
