I hired Greg many years ago to perform at a work event and I recently hired him for my mum’s retirement party in January. He was absolutely excellent and a real professional from booking to the end of the event! I still don’t know how he guessed the name I was thinking! My only regret is not having him for longer and I would absolutely hire him again!

Greg recently attended our companies Christmas Party and he was absolutely fantastic , everyone said how entertaining and impressive his performance was. Luckily I had the pleasure of meeting Greg at a previous 60th birthday event but his performance was just as brilliant as the first time I saw him, he is a very friendly & professional person. I couldn’t recommend Greg enough for any type of event as he really does put on an Captivating , jaw dropping performance.

I have had a pretty strong ick towards magicians. Not after Greg. Charming, but professional, one of the smoothest people I have met, who can turn a room full of business people into bamboozled children. Truly wonderful!

Rachel

Greg was amazing! He performed at our wedding of 80, and we had so many comments from people who thought he was amazing. My Grandad has even started learning card tricks in his 80s after seeing Greg perform! I'm so pleased Greg was there to add even more fun into the day.

Sarah Wilcox

We booked Greg for our wedding to entertain our 65 guests during our 90-minute drinks reception. He was absolutely excellent and I would highly recommend him. He's friendly, polite, very very talented and great fun. His range of tricks (which I won't reveal!) really suited the audience and the mood in the room - there were lots of wows going on for the slight of hand. We booked Greg because sometimes if you don't know many people at a wedding the reception drinks can drag on, a bit or feel like an effort socially - he absolutely broke the ice with lots of people and was a great conversation starter. It's been a month since our wedding and people still talk about Greg as a highlight - he was very memorable and got round all our guests. Easy to communicate with and very reliable too, which is so important in the run up to a big day. You won't regret booking him for your wedding, we certainly don't!

Alana Harris

We booked Greg for one of our quarterly member parties and couldn't recommend him enough. Everyone was raving about the performances which were the highlight of the evening. We can't wait to book him for future events.

Jordan Fretter

We got married on the 29th Febuary and Greg performed at our wedding during our drinks reception and wedding breakfast. What can we say other than WOW, WOW, WOW! Greg was fantastic and kept all guests entertained during the day. All gueets commented on how amazed they were at Greg's magic and most said it was the highlight of their day. We would 100% recommend Greg if you are looking for a magician at your wedding or event. A wedding costs a lot of money and every penny we spent for Greg to perform was money well spent. Keep up the fab work Greg!

We had Greg at my husband's 40th party in our garden recently. He was such a fantastic addition to the party.

Greg's performance at my small birthday party was excellent, and for anyone wondering if he's worth the money, he is totally worth it. He is friendly, engaging, and clearly very talented. He legitimately had myself and my guests feeling like we'd seen real magic happen right in front of our eyes. I highly recommend Greg and only wish I'd asked him to stay longer.

Olivia Gray

Greg attended our wedding on Saturday and was entertaining our guests throughout our drinks reception. We could not have been happier that Greg attended, we were absolutely blown away with the magic he did and we had countless comments from our guests with how amazing he was and how much they enjoyed it. He also specifically made sure he spent time with us (the bride & groom) to show us some of the amazing magic. Greg was also absolutely fantastic with communication on the build up to the day which really put us at ease. We cannot fault the service we were given and would highly recommend everyone to hire Greg for the wedding or any other event. Thank you so much again Greg, you made our special day amazing!

I hired Greg for a community Jubilee event and what can I say?! He was absolutely amazing! His magic was mind blowing and had the entire crowd talking! But he also had a fantastic way of performing, walking around the crowd and doing close up tricks which really made a huge positive impact on the event and put a smile on everyone's faces. I highly recommend Greg and will be using him again for future events.

Laura Chappell

Completely superb. Took the party to another level

Sara Chandler

We have had the absolute pleasure of watching Greg perform, and I can honestly say it was one of the most captivating and entertaining shows we’ve ever seen. From the moment he stepped into the room, Greg had the entire audience—kids and adults alike—completely mesmerised. His sleight of hand is flawless. But what truly sets Greg apart is his ability to connect with the audience. He’s not just performing tricks; he’s creating moments of pure wonder and joy. Every routine was polished, creative, and delivered with a perfect balance of humor, charm, and mystery. Whether he was pulling something impossible out of thin air or involving audience members in jaw-dropping tricks, Greg had us laughing, gasping, and clapping throughout! If you’re looking for world-class magic that will leave a lasting impression, Greg is the one to see. His talent is undeniable, his professionalism is top-tier, and his ability to make you believe in the impossible is simply extraordinary. Highly recommended. 10/10!

Wow! What an impact you had on our special day! Our guests are still talking about how amazing you were and we’re still scratching our heads as to how you guessed a random pet name!
