Magicians in West Sussex
Hire a magician in West Sussex
Magic gives guests something to talk about for the rest of the day. Across West Sussex, 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 West Sussex, magicians are booked for weddings and events in and around Chichester, Horsham and Crawley. Venues in the area include Upwaltham Barns, Cissbury Barns and Fitzleroi Barn, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Cowdray Estate, Farbridge and Grittenham Barn are among the other West Sussex venues listed further down, each with its own page.
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.

The drinks reception is the most popular slot, as guests are standing in groups and there's often a wait while photos are taken. A magician can also work the tables between courses at the wedding breakfast, or entertain guests during the evening while the band sets up.
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.
Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.
The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the day. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.
