 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Frank was fantastic. We booked Frank to entertain at our corporate event and he was outstanding. He had everyone laughing, amazed, and completely engaged. Several people are still talking about his mind-reading weeks later! He was professional, flexible, and made the whole process really easy for us. I’d definitely recommend him for any corporate function...

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We booked Magic Frank for our wedding on 22nd August and he was absolutely amazing! He completely wowed our guests. So many people kept coming up to us throughout the day commenting on how brilliant he was and how amazed they were by his magic. Everyone was trying to work out how he’d done it 😂 and he genuinely became one of the talking points of the day! He was fantastic with everyone, really friendly and professional, and fitted into the wedding perfectly. With so much going on during the day, it was lovely seeing groups of our guests gathered around him, laughing and completely baffled by what they’d just seen. We’ve had so many comments since about how great he was, which says it all really. We’re so glad we booked him and would absolutely recommend Magic Frank to anyone considering him for their wedding or event. Thank you for helping make our day so memorable! ✨🤍 Mr & Mrs Evans — 22.08.26

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Frank was absolutely amazing. Wondered around all of our guests seamlessly, ensuring everyone got a chance to see something cool. Without giving anything away, the magic itself was mind blowing, a huge range of tricks. It feels like everybody got to see something different and they were all equally stunned. Thank you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Frank was absolutely fantastic and one of the highlights of our wedding weekend. We booked him to entertain our guests during our pre-wedding boat cruise on Lake Windermere, and he couldn't have been a better choice. From the moment he started, he had everyone laughing, chatting and completely amazed. His magic is genuinely incredible, but what really stood out was how friendly and approachable he was. He made a real effort to involve everyone, and it was the perfect icebreaker for guests meeting for the first time before the wedding. We've had so many people comment on how brilliant he was, and he helped create such a relaxed, fun atmosphere that carried through the whole weekend. He also finished the evening with a special trick just for us as the bride and groom, and it completely blew us away. We still have no idea how he did it—it genuinely broke our brains (in the best way)! If you're considering booking Frank for a wedding or any special event, don't hesitate. He was professional from start to finish, an absolute pleasure to work with, and we couldn't recommend him more highly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of events do you perform at?

I perform at a wide range of events, including:

Corporate parties, awards nights and client events
Birthday and anniversary celebrations
Private parties and dinner gatherings
Hospitality and venue events

Whether it’s a company function or a celebration at home, the aim is the same — creating relaxed, sociable moments where guests laugh, connect and remember the event for all the right reasons.

What is close-up magic?

Close-up magic happens right among your guests while they mingle or sit at tables. Small groups experience the magic in their own hands, creating natural moments of surprise and laughter without stopping the flow of the event.

It works perfectly during drinks receptions, dinners or party mingling.

What is a parlour show?

A parlour show is a short, shared performance for everyone together — usually after dinner or when guests are settled.

It creates a highlight moment where the whole room enjoys the experience at the same time, often becoming the talking point of the evening.

Can we have both close-up magic and a show?

Yes — many hosts choose:

Close-up magic as guests arrive or mingle
A parlour show later as a shared highlight

This combination keeps the atmosphere lively throughout the event.

How long do you usually perform?

Most bookings include 1–3 hours of close-up magic, depending on guest numbers and timings.

A parlour show, if added, typically runs around 40-50 minutes.

I’ll always help you choose timings that suit the flow of your event.

Is the magic suitable for mixed ages?

Yes — the magic is family-friendly and works well when children are present.

However, the style is aimed at adult and mixed audiences, rather than being children’s party entertainment.

Will the magic interrupt food or speeches?

No — performances are timed around catering and speeches so the entertainment enhances the event rather than interrupting it. I work closely with hosts and staff to keep everything running smoothly.

Do you need a stage or special equipment?

No stage is needed for close-up magic — everything happens naturally among guests.

For parlour performances, only a small clear space is usually required so everyone can see comfortably.

Is travel included?

Travel up to an hour from Manchester is included for most events. If your venue is further away, this is discussed clearly in advance so there are no surprises.

How do we book or check availability?

Just send your event date and rough timings. I’ll suggest the best format and confirm availability with a clear, fixed fee.

You’re also welcome to arrange a short call if you’d like to chat things through first.
