5/5 from 913 reviews
Photo of Ben Harris Magician Ben Harris Magician "I've known Ben for a number of years and have been amazed at his magic and how they have developed over time. After attending one of his shows, where he showed just how good he was at magic and illusion, I asked him if he would come to entertain my grandchildren and their friends at my home. Ben was great! My grandchildren and their friends were enthralled with all the magic tricks he performed which were entirely suitable for the young ones. Ben has the ability to entertain children and adults alike, gearing his show to his audience and demonstrating his versatility with all ages. He is a real showman and is a pleasure to watch! I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone which is interested in magic and illusion, you will have a really enjoyable time!" Based in Liverpool, England (16 miles from Chester) Ronnie Wilkinson Photo of Ian McCoy Ian McCoy "The Best entertainer in the UK - 5 stars. "If you are thinking of using Ian for your event so not hesitate or waste any more time thinking and reading reviews... Just book him!!! Ian is down to earth whilst completely professional. He's funny, relaxed and looks the part whatever the event requires. Ian absolutely blew us away at our wedding and our guests will not stop talking about him! His close up magic is on another level, real magic! Honestly we were utterly amazed. He entertained the children for hours, and they were hooked. It made people laugh and relax. It brought together different friends and family to break the ice. He did a little stand up with us as bride and groom with mentalism and we still can't work out how on earth he knew what we were thinking!! Book him today"" Based in Wallasey, England (18 miles from Chester) 21st September 2026 Ceri Dowdal - wedding Photo of Martin Wildish Martin Wildish "Martin came to us for daughters 50th birthday party, he was absolutely brilliant, he kept everyone entertained, he went round all the guests doing different magic tricks , I don’t think he repeated the same trick twice, he had us all amazed, we would definitely recommend Martin and will book him again .

Frequently asked questions

Hiring illusionists typically costs between £100 and £1,050+, with an average of £380. The price depends on the performer's experience, show duration and the scale of the illusions. Large-scale stage illusions with elaborate props and equipment tend to cost significantly more than smaller-format performances.

Most illusionists bring their own props, illusion equipment and often their own lighting and sound. For larger venues, coordination with the venue's technical team may be needed. It is advisable to confirm all equipment and access requirements before booking.

Many clients book illusionists for corporate events, gala dinners, theatre shows, product launches, awards ceremonies and large private celebrations where a headline stage act is needed. Illusionist shows are visually spectacular and work well as a focal point for the evening.

The illusionists specialise in large-scale visual illusions such as making people appear or vanish, levitation, escape acts and other grand effects. While close-up magicians perform at arm's length, illusionists typically perform on stage for larger audiences.

Most illusionists require a stage area, specific lighting, and sometimes rigging or special effects equipment. Space needs vary depending on the illusions being performed. To get the best results, discuss all technical and staging requirements with the illusionist well in advance.
