Description

My services will vary greatly from one event to the next. A phrase I often use is "this is your event, not mine". I will work within your requirements at every stage. I am happy to provide suggestions and guidance where needed but you will always have the final say on the arrangements for the day.
My style of magic is very fluid and will be catered towards the spectators and the style of event. As an overview, I perform a variety of close-up effects including card magic, coin illusions and mind-reading. I am not just a performer, magic is a major part of my life, I spend countless hours per ... fecting my craft and adding new effects to my repertoire. What I offer today may be added to before your event so there may be some surprises in store.
Booking a magician can be a big decision and you want to make sure that you make the right choice. To that end, I am happy to provide a demonstration of what I do, either in person (depending on location) or over video call. Meetings like this are free of charge and carry no obligation to book. Please get in touch if you would like to arrange to meet me.

Matt Barber - Close-Up Magician - Close-up Magician - Maidstone, South East Event Location: London Event Type: Birthday Party 1st July 2023

Hired Matt to entertain guests at a 90th birthday party. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed it. Matt was prompt, professional, & polite. He worked all the tables, and groups of guests up close and did exactly the job I'd wanted him to do - and at reasonable rates. Would recommend

I cannot recommend Matt highly enough. He is a very charismatic young man and carried out his magic tricks with confidence, charm and a very professional manner. Our party were left dumbfounded by the tricks he performed and there is no doubt in my mind that he is destined for great things in the world of magic. Book Matt and you will not be disappointed.

Experience

I started practicing magic at the age of 14. More than 10 years of practice later, I started to share my performances with a wide variety of audiences. My specialism is close-up effects. Being able to see magic performed right in front of one's eyes is a unique experience not usually forgotten quickly.
I am able to perform in a variety of different situations so please get in touch to discuss your requirements with me. If you are unsure how to embed magic within your event, I can also discuss this with you.
