Entertainment that gets your guests talking

Corporate events bring together people who don’t always know each other: clients and colleagues, new starters and directors, teams from different offices. Close-up magic breaks the ice in seconds. Matt moves between groups and tables performing magic that happens in your guests’ own hands, with their phones, their business cards and their thoughts, so every group shares a moment they’ll talk about long after the speeches.

As a corporate magician, Matt has performed for Google Switzerland in Zurich, HSBC at Wimbledon, Deloitte, Konica Minolta, ITV and Gartner, at awards nights, conferences, product launches, summer parties and Christmas parties. Some clients have booked him for more than a decade.

For the bigger moments, Matt adds mind reading and bespoke iPad magic that can reveal your logo, product or key message, turning entertainment into something your guests remember your brand by.

Corporate event entertainment

Magic for every kind of company event

Whatever the format, the magic is shaped around your timings, your guests and your brand.

Awards Dinners and Galas

Table-to-table magic between courses, then a short mind reading set before the awards when the room needs lifting.

Summer Parties and Away Days

Roaming magic for terraces, marquees and gardens, so every group gets a moment of its own.

Conferences and Networking

Close-up magic in the breaks and drinks reception, or a featured set to open or close the day.

Client Hospitality

Discreet, high-end magic for client dinners, boxes at Wimbledon and Twickenham, and VIP receptions.

“I was really impressed with the research Matt carried out on our business, allowing him to bespoke the magic to our company, which was a great surprise for the guests. From initial introduction, planning and entertaining at the event, Matt was incredibly professional.”
Rebecca MaxtedOperations & Project Manager, Thomas International · Gala dinner for international guests

Corporate magician FAQs

Hiring a magician for a corporate event

How much does a corporate magician cost?

Every booking is quoted individually, because the fee depends on the date, location, how long you’d like Matt to perform and the number of guests. Send your details for a clear quote.

What kind of magic works best at a corporate event?

Close-up magic as guests mingle or dine works for almost every event. Mind reading and iPad magic add a “how did he do that?” moment, and a short featured set works well before awards or speeches.

Can the magic feature our brand or product?

Yes. Matt creates bespoke magic for brands including Samsung, HSBC and Xero, from a product appearing in a guest’s hands to a logo revealed on an iPad. See bespoke magic.

How many guests can you perform for?

From boardroom dinners of 10 to balls of 550. For very large events, Matt can bring a team of magicians so every guest sees the magic.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes, £10 million public liability insurance, so venues and event planners are fully covered.

Do you work with event agencies and planners?

Yes. Matt works directly with companies and with event agencies, and fits around production schedules, AV teams, caterers and photographers.

Do you perform outside London?

Yes. Matt performs across the UK and internationally, including for Google in Zurich and events in Qatar, Dubai and across Europe. See international magician.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for December and summer, which book up first. If your date is close, it’s still worth asking.
