Close-Up magic for Birmingham events
Birmingham is the events capital of the Midlands: the NEC and the ICC host some of the biggest exhibitions and conferences in the country, the city centre is packed with hotels and creative venues, and the countryside around Solihull, Coventry and Warwick is full of country house hotels and wedding venues. Close-up magic suits every one of them. Matt Parro moves between groups and tables performing magic that happens in your guests’ own hands, with their phones, their rings and their thoughts, so every group gets a moment of its own.
Matt has performed at the NEC and the ICC, at Fazeley Studios in Digbeth, and at events for companies including Omnicom Media Group and Mazda Financial Services, from dealer dinners at the Forest of Arden to Christmas awards in the city centre. Further out, he has performed at weddings and parties at Coombe Abbey, Wethele Manor, Chesford Grange and the voco St John’s in Solihull. More than half of his Birmingham and West Midlands bookings are corporate events.
Whatever the room, the performance is shaped around your timings, your guests and your venue, and it works for every age in the room.
The guests are famous. The reaction is the same.
