Where magic fits into your Christmas event
Drinks reception entertainment
I move between small groups performing quick, interactive magic that gets people talking straight away and helps break the ice while drinks are being served.
Networking before the party starts
Yes. Short moments of magic give people a shared experience, which naturally sparks conversation between colleagues who may not know each other well.
Between courses at dinner
Yes. I perform at tables between courses so guests have something engaging to enjoy during the natural pauses in the meal.
Table magic
It’s close-up magic performed directly for small groups at their tables, with guests involved in the moment rather than watching from a distance.
School parents' Christmas celebration in Colchester
Last December, I was booked to entertain at a private Christmas party in Colchester attended by around 50 local parents and couples from the same school community.
The event was held at a family home and had become something of a tradition, with the host looking to make the evening even more memorable than the previous year’s celebration. Guests arrived throughout the evening, enjoying drinks and food from a central buffet table while catching up with friends and enjoying a rare child-free night out during the festive season.
When the magic began, guests had no idea entertainment had been arranged. Initially, people were chatting in small groups, but as the reactions spread around the room, more and more guests began gathering to watch. As playing cards started appearing in guests’ hands and impossible moments unfolded, people were calling over their partners and friends to see what was happening.
Throughout the two-hour performance, the atmosphere became increasingly lively, with guests following the magic around the room and asking to see more. By the end of the evening, the entertainment had become a real talking point and the host received fantastic feedback from guests, along with a 5-star review following the event.
It was a great example of how close-up magic can help bring people together and create shared moments at a Christmas party without interrupting the natural flow of the evening.

Why close up magic works at Christmas Parties
Breaks the ice between guests
Magic will act as a social lubrication, it will give guests something to watch and ultimately get them talking.
Interactive entertainment at the Christmas Party
This is the best bit, rather than watching a show, guests are entertained where they naturally place themselves.
Therefore, magic will happen in their own hands, creating laughter and mystery.
Helps guests feel engaged right from the start
At some office Christmas parties colleagues bring partners or invite clients who may not know each other well.
Because of this, close up magic gives them a shared experience and instantly gets conversations started.
