5/5 from 1,541 reviews
Photo of Serals Magic Serals Magic "Seral made Henry's 40th birthday party unforgettable! His magic captivated everyone in the room, leaving us all in awe of his incredible skills. On the night, Seral showcased a diverse range of tricks, including mind-bending card illusions (and some with flames!) and mind-reading feats including correctly guessing Tom Cruise. He effortlessly engaged with the guests, creating a sense of wonder and excitement. Seral's talent is unquestionable. Everyone was thrilled with his performance and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a magician for their event. Thanks again, Seral, for adding that magical touch to Henry's special day!" Based in Basildon, England (29 miles from Colchester) Becky L - 40th Birthday Photo of David Masters Magician David Masters Magician "I booked David for my 50th birthday party and he was absolutely brilliant . The tricks he performed were incredible and he was very entertaining, plus he was punctual with great communication before the event. Would highly recommend. Thank you David!" Based in Sheerness, England (32 miles from Colchester) JO - Birthday Party Photo of Corkey's Magic Show Corkey's Magic Show "Martin did a great job and reacted well to the kids, pivoting to different things at just the right time. The kids all had a great time!" Based in Newmarket, England (32 miles from Colchester) Christian - 4th Birthday Photo of Matt Barber - Close-Up Magician Matt Barber - Close-Up Magician "We booked Matt to perform at our wedding at Hedingham Castle, and he was truly amazing. From our very first meeting, he completely blew us away with his warmth, professionalism, and talent. On the day, he engaged with our guests so beautifully, even where there were language barriers, and everyone loved him. He brought such joy, energy, and magic to our wedding, and we honestly couldn’t have imagined a more perfect evening." Based in Maidstone, England (46 miles from Colchester) 11th February 2026 Alexandra Margarit - Wedding Photo of Daniel Bower: Magician & Host Daniel Bower: Magician & Host "I’ve worked on many events with Daniel and I always know the audience are in safe hands. He has a brilliant way of connecting with people and always amazes the crowd. Professional, reliable and an absolute pleasure to work alongside." Based in London, England (51 miles from Colchester) 15th October 2026 Matt Frankel Events Photo of Chasing The Illusion Chasing The Illusion "We recently had the pleasure of experiencing Chase's magic at our Christmas party, and he was absolutely outstanding. His performance was on a completely different level — not just traditional magic, but truly mind-blowing mentalism and touch magic that left us speechless. His ability to read thoughts, predict choices, and reveal personal details with impossible accuracy had the entire room captivated. The mentalism routines were eerie in the best possible way — the kind that makes you look around to check whether someone must be in on it (they weren’t!). But the moment that everyone is still talking about is his touch magic. Feeling a tap on your shoulder or hand without him being anywhere near you is something you can’t fully explain until you experience it. It was surreal, unforgettable, and created that perfect mix of excitement and disbelief. On top of his incredible talent, he was warm, engaging, and effortlessly funny — the type of entertainer who instantly puts people at ease and gets everyone involved without ever making anyone uncomfortable. If you’re looking for entertainment that is unique, astonishing, and memorable long after the event is over, I cannot recommend him highly enough. Truly exceptional." Based in London, England (51 miles from Colchester) 8th December 2025 Kras - Christmas party
