Why Hire a Close-Up Magician?
When organising a party, you’ve probably considered many types of entertainment: disco, band, comedian and so on. But have you ever considered hiring a professional close-up magician?
A close-up magician can add entertainment to any party. Whether it’s a wedding, diner or corporate event, magicians are professional, fun entertainers. If you’ve seen cheesy kid’s magicians before, then you may be surprised to hear that not every magician is like!
There is currently a new breed of close-up magicians who are modern, funny and very entertaining. They perform magic that will fool and amaze your guests.
Here are five reasons why you should hire a magician for your next event or party:
1. They stand out from the crowd: if you want to organise a party different to your friends’ parties, hire a magician! Many people have never seen a magician perform live before, so it’s the perfect way to create a night that everyone will remember! And if they have seen a magician before, they likely have never seen a contemporary close-up magician before.
2. They add to the evening: the right magician will be funny, entertaining and perform amazing magic. A touch of magic will definitely add to the evening!
3. It gets people talking: if you have lots of friends who don’t know each other too well, a magician is a great icebreaker as if gives people something to talk about! No more awkward silences! Instead, they can talk about their shared experience of being entertained by a magician.
4. They’re not expensive: considering the expense of food, venue hire and so on, most magicians are reasonably priced! But don’t go for the cheapest magician; find the one that best suits your event.
5. They can perform anywhere! Magicians have performed all over the world in many different types of venues. Magicians aren’t like bands or other acts; they can perform just about anywhere! If you’re organising a wedding, magicians often perform during the photographs or during the wedding breakfast. In the latter case, they tend to perform a small show for each table.
Other events such as corporate events work in a similar way; the magician mingles with each small group and performs some absolutely amazing magic just a few feet away!
And here’s a bonus point too:
6. There are no limitations to the amount of people you can have at your party! At small events with just five or six people, a magician can entertain everyone at the same time. Normally, a magician can get around about 60 – 100 people during an evening, so if you’re organising a bigger event, it’s suggested that you hire more than one magician. Quite often, if you get in contact with one magician, they’ll be able to organise a second one for you too.
There are many, many more reasons to hire a magician! And remember, there are also many types of magicians such as close-up magicians, stage magicians, illusionists, mind readers and more.
A close-up magician can add entertainment to any party.
