Anniversaries and family gatherings

Some occasions are about the people in the room as much as the celebration itself. David takes the time to involve everyone, from the youngest guests to the grandparents, often weaving in personal touches that make the moment feel truly yours.

Celebration

Magic for every kind of celebration

A milestone birthday, a ruby or golden anniversary, an engagement, a retirement, even a summer garden party. David tailors his magic to the occasion and the people in the room. It is the rare entertainment that brings close family and near-strangers together in the same moment, breaking the ice as guests arrive and giving everyone something to talk about for weeks afterwards. For surprise parties in particular it is perfect, landing as an unexpected treat just as the celebration gets going.

What to expect

Close-up magic asks nothing of your venue. No stage, no set-up, no fuss. David simply arrives and works the room, fitting effortlessly around a drinks reception, a meal or an evening party. Most parties book around two hours, and David will help you choose the best time to perform, often early on, as it breaks the ice beautifully as guests arrive.

"I wouldn't call myself a magic fan so when I booked David for my partner's birthday party I was sceptical. He exceeded my expectations completely. His performance completely blew me away and I was talking to my friends and family about it for weeks afterwards. Highly highly recommend."

"Wow, we booked David for our joint 70th birthday party and from the very first time we spoke to him his professionalism shone through. He arrived and immediately got to share his amazing magic skills with our guests, who were totally blown away. You took our party to the next level, David, and we will be recommending you at every opportunity!"

"I had Magikman to entertain our guests for my husband's 70th birthday party. He baffled everyone with his magic and guests were still talking about what they had seen long after David had gone. Thank you Magikman for making our party a memorable one."
