Magicians in Cardiff
Hire a magician in Cardiff
A close-up magician is one of the best ways to keep guests entertained while the photos are being taken. In Cardiff, magicians are booked for drinks receptions, wedding breakfasts, corporate events and parties, moving between groups and performing tricks right in front of them.
Whether your wedding is near Cardiff, Penarth and Barry or further afield, the magicians here cover the whole of Cardiff. Local venues include De Courceys Manor, Coed-y-Mwstwr and Pencoed House Estate, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Hensol Castle, The Celtic Manor Resort and Miskin Manor are among the other Cardiff venues listed further down, each with its own page.
Magic is a great ice-breaker. While the couple are having photos taken, a close-up magician can bring together guests who have never met, and the tricks become something people talk about for the rest of the day.

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.
Most magician bookings fall between £350 and £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. The date and time of year make up the rest of the difference, so a weekday or winter date can cost less than a summer Saturday.
Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performer you would be booking, with videos, audio, a repertoire list and reviews. Between them you can get a clear sense of the act well before the day.
Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.
