Party Magic

It’s becoming more and more popular and fashionable to hire a magician for your party. Whatever sort of party you’re having, magic will make it special and even more memorable.

Why is it such a great idea to have magic at your party?

• Magic is a fantastic ice-breaker and gives people something to focus on if they’re not yet feeling very confident in the group.

• Magic gets everyone involved; nobody is left out.

• Sharing a moment of astonishment is a bonding experience.

• Magic makes us feel like children again, which in turn makes us more likely to enjoy the party.

• Magic makes a change from music and gives those who don’t dance some cool entertainment.

As a highly skilled and experienced magician, Iain Moran is someone you can trust to do an excellent, professional job of entertaining the guests at your party.

What sort of magic is suitable for parties?

Close-up Magic

Most commonly, people want close-up magic, ie magic performed for just two or three people at a time. If the guests are standing about, Iain will stroll among them, creating magic for small groups so that everyone can experience magic just a metre or two from their face. If your guests are seated - for example, at a dinner party – Iain will move around the table(s) and, again, show magic to a few people at a time. He carries everything he needs in his pockets, so magic can happen even in a small space.

Iain is careful not to interrupt important or emotional conversations or to do magic while people are eating.


Cabaret Magic

Unless you live in a castle or have hired a theatre for your party, it’s unlikely that stage magic or big, cutting-people-in-half illusions will be suitable for your occasion. However, if you would like a show, which everyone stops partying and gathers to watch, you can have one.

Iain is happy to perform for as many people as can fit into the room and be comfortably able to see (usually between 30 and 50). In this context, he creates magic on a larger scale than close-up, though there is still a great deal of audience participation. This is type of magic, on a medium scale, is called cabaret magic.

What sort of parties are suitable for magic?

All of them! Iain performs mainly at 30th birthday parties, 40th birthday parties, 50th birthday parties, Christmas parties, engagement parties, wedding parties and wedding anniversary parties but he has also brought magic to housewarming parties, graduation parties, goodbye/leaving parties, retirement parties, Hallowe’en parties and parties thrown just for the fun of it.

Hire Iain Moran as your party magician and become known as an excellent host(ess).
