Hey there - I'm Aidan, a professional magician for hire, based in Milton Keynes specialising in modern close-up magic and interactive entertainment for weddings and corporate events across the UK.
I help hosts, planners, and couples create events that feel effortless, engaging, and genuinely memorable for your guests - all without awkward moments or cheesy tricks.
With over a decade of experience performing close-up magic and event entertainment at weddings, corporate functions, and private events, I understand how to read a room and boost the atmosphere without ever taking over.
Whether it's breaking the ice during drinks receptions, keeping energy high between key moments, or delivering professional corporate entertainment your guests actually enjoy, my job is simple:
Make you feel confident that the entertainment is completely taken care of.
I’m a proud member of The Magic Circle - the world’s most prestigious and respected society for professional magicians.
In addition to performing for clients, I’ve also been invited to lecture for other magicians, sharing my approach to creating engaging, modern magic that works in real-world events.
Which means that you can be confident that your entertainment is being handled by someone with genuine experience and professional recognition.


Modern magic works because it’s social and interactive. Rather than sitting in the background, it creates shared moments that bring people together.
At birthday parties and celebrations, that matters. Especially during those in-between moments and lulls where energy can dip and your guests don’t naturally know who to talk to, or what to talk about.
As a professional magician for hire, my role isn’t to dominate the room or pull focus away from the event. It’s to enhance the atmosphere, spark conversation, and turn ordinary moments into something people genuinely remember for years to come.
(I still have people bringing signed cards and predictions to my shows years after they first met me at their functions!)

Performing magic at events is very different from performing magic on a stage or online. It requires awareness, timing, and the ability to read a room quickly.
With over a decade of experience performing at private parties and events across the UK, I understand how to engage guests naturally and appropriately - without awkward interruptions or forced participation.
Everything I do is designed to feel effortless from your side.
You don’t need to manage the entertainment or worry about whether it’s working. I stay flexible and fit around your event plan and schedule, so the experience feels seamless rather than staged.


Mingling magic (also known as close up magic) is performed among your guests during drinks receptions or as people are arriving to your event.
This style works particularly well at private parties because it’s flexible, informal, and highly interactive.
Guests experience the fun, mind-blowing magic up close (often in their own hands) which gets people laughing, relaxed and having a great time.
It’s ideal when you want entertainment that blends into the event rather than stopping it.

My shows are a more structured performance designed for everyone to enjoy at the same time.
The performance is designed to suit the audience and environment so that it delivers a high-impact "WOW" for your guests, creating a show-stopping moment that your guests will never forget.

(So you know I'm not shit...)
