The ice-breaker your Christmas party needs

At most office Christmas parties, people stick with the colleagues they already know. Close-up magic changes that. Matt moves between groups and tables performing magic that happens in your guests’ own hands, so accounts end up laughing with IT, new starters meet the directors, and everyone has the same story to tell on Monday.

There’s no stage, no sound system and no one is put on the spot. The magic comes to your guests wherever they are: at the bar during festive drinks, around the tables between courses, or as a short featured moment of mind reading that brings the whole room together.

As a Christmas magician, Matt performs at corporate Christmas parties, office parties, Christmas lunches, end-of-year awards nights and private family celebrations, in London, across the UK and internationally.

How it fits your party

Magic at every stage of the evening

Festive Drinks Reception

As guests arrive, Matt works the room in small groups. It gets people talking straight away, even in a busy, noisy bar.

Between Courses

Over dinner, Matt moves from table to table, so every guest sees the magic up close and no one misses out.

A Moment for the Room

A short featured set of mind reading after dinner or before the awards, when you want the whole party together.

On the Night

Matt arrives early, works around your venue, caterers and speeches, and needs nothing from you except guests.

December fills up fast. Check Matt’s availability for your Christmas party.

Christmas party entertainment that brings your team together

Everyone Gets Involved

Magic happens with your guests, not at them. Borrowed phones, signed cards and their own thoughts become part of the trick.

Works in Any Room

Restaurants, private dining rooms, bars, hotels and offices. No stage, lighting or sound system needed.

Fits Your Timings

Drinks, dinner, speeches and awards: Matt plans the magic around your running order, so the evening flows.

Modern Magic

Close-up sleight of hand, mind reading and iPad magic, much of it Matt’s own creation you won’t see anywhere else.

Office Parties of Any Size

From a team dinner of 20 to a company party of hundreds. For very large events, Matt can arrange a team of magicians.

Private Parties Too

Family Christmas dinners, Boxing Day lunches and festive celebrations at home or in a hotel.

Harriet CooperOKA Direct · Christmas party, Pimlico, London

“Matt performed to a group of around 30 of us for our office Christmas party. He worked around the room performing to small groups which was great as it was quite loud in there. He was brilliant, we were left truly baffled with how he did his tricks!”
Lauren NewmanTokio Marine HCC · Office Christmas party, London

Christmas party FAQs

Hiring a magician for your Christmas party

How far in advance should I book a Christmas party magician?

As early as you can. December is the busiest month of the year, and the Thursday and Friday nights in the first three weeks are usually the first to go. If your date is close, it’s still worth asking.

When during the party should the magic happen?

Most organisers book Matt for the drinks reception and between courses, when guests are mingling or seated. A short featured mind reading moment after dinner or before the awards works brilliantly too.

How long do you perform for?

Typically between 30 minutes and 2 hours, depending on your guest numbers and running order. Matt will suggest the timings that let him reach every guest.

Will magic work at a big, noisy office party?

Yes. Close-up magic is performed to small groups at a time, so it works even when the room is loud. For very large parties, Matt can arrange a team of magicians.

Do you perform at Christmas lunches and daytime parties?

Yes. Matt performs at Christmas lunches, afternoon parties and end-of-year awards events as well as evening parties.

How much does a Christmas party magician cost?

Every booking is quoted individually, because the fee depends on the date, how long you’d like Matt to perform, your guest numbers and the location. Send your details for a clear quote, or read how much a magician costs in London.

Do you perform at private Christmas parties?

Yes. As well as corporate parties, Matt performs at family Christmas dinners, Boxing Day lunches and festive celebrations at home, in restaurants and in hotels.

Where do you perform?

All over London, across the UK and internationally. Most December bookings are in London and the South East.
