Close-up magic. Mind reading. Very big reactions.

No stage. No smoke machine. Just impossible things happening right under people’s noses. 25 years entertaining weddings, corporate events and private parties across the UK and Spain.

The Bloke Behind The Magic

Meet Al.

I’m Al. Most people know me as Magic-Al.

For the last 25 years, I’ve been performing close-up magic at weddings, corporate events and private parties across the UK and worldwide.

I work right in the middle of the event, moving between groups, pulling people in naturally and creating the kind of reactions you can’t fake.

I’m not there to take over the room. I’m there to give it a lift.

That means breaking the ice, getting different groups talking, raising the energy and giving people something they’ll still be banging on about afterwards.

Making that look effortless takes experience. I’ve done this thousands of times, with every kind of crowd, so I know when to get involved, when to push things a bit further and when to leave people to it.

There’s usually a bit of mischief along the way, the odd watch going walkabout, and plenty of “how the hell did you do that?” moments.

If the room’s buzzing by the time I leave, I’ve done my job.
