Looking for a magician to hire near you?

As a true travelling magician, I perform across the UK – and the world.

When I'm not wowing audiences, you'll find me at home in Wrexham, North Wales.

Looking for a magician in Bolton, Manchester, Staffordshire or Cheshire? I can reach you in the wave of a magic wand.

But I'm always happy to travel further afield. London, Lisbon or Los Angeles – give me enough notice, and I'll be there. No problem.

Start by dropping me a message with a few details of your event. I'll get the magic carpet ready…

About me

I'm proud to be considered one of the UK's leading close-up magicians.

Hi! I'm Paul.


I've been obsessed with magic for as long as I can remember. And I'm lucky to have turned my passion into a successful career lasting 30+ years.


My journey as a professional magician has taken me around the world and back again. I've performed for the likes of Ant and Dec, Ernst & Young and the England football team. And I've won awards for my unique brand of intimate, sleight-of-hand magic.


But whether I'm reading minds in Marrakesh or doing card tricks in Clapham, my approach is the same. I always go above and beyond to make it special – because watching audiences gasp, smile and feel the magic makes my day.

Frequently asked questions

  • What kind of magic do you perform?

    I'm best known for my sleight-of-hand magic, including unique card tricks you won't see anywhere else. This involves intimate, close-up performances to only a few people at a time.


    However, I also perform stage magic – and I'm partial to a bit of mind-reading!


    I always like to keep things light and throw in some family-friendly jokes. I want everyone to enjoy my magic, whether they're nine years old or 90.


    And my shows are entirely customisable. Just [let me know what kinds of things you'd like to see] and I'll make it happen.

  • Can you create a trick for me?

    Yes! I'm always happy to come up with a unique trick. This could be a personalised trick for your wedding day, for instance, or some custom card magic to promote your brand.


    It all starts with a chat. Drop me a line to discuss your requirements.

  • Can you perform anywhere in the UK?

    Yes – or anywhere in the world. As long as you give me enough notice, I can be there. 

  • Are you a member of the Magic Circle?

    Yes. I'm a proud member of the North Wales Magic Circle. I'm also a card-carrying Equity member and a five-star-rated performer with Magical Memories.

  • Are you insured?

    Yes – I have public liability insurance for your peace of mind.

  • How long do performances last?

    That depends on what you're after. Remember that my shows are 100% bespoke to you. Whether you want me to entertain guests for an hour or host a wedding from start to finish, I'm ready to give it my all.

  • How much will it cost?

    I make every show different – and special. That's why I provide customised fees based on your unique requirements. Just drop me a line to request a quick, no-obligation quote.

  • How do you do THAT trick?

    A professional magician never reveals their secrets!
