ANNIVERSARY MAGICIAN BATH

Why Choose an Anniversary Magician in Bath?

Andy Field – Anniversary Magician in Bath

Celebrating an anniversary in Bath? You could go for the usual bottle of champagne, a nice meal and a romantic walk along the river.

Or you could make things a little more interesting. Hire a magician.

Not the sort who pulls a rabbit out of a hat while wearing a sparkly waistcoat. I’m talking about close-up magic that happens right in front of you. Using cards, coins, borrowed objects and sometimes things that really shouldn’t be able to do what they do.

I’m Andy Field, a professional close-up Bath magician performing in Somerset and throughout the surrounding areas. I’ve been performing magic professionally for a quarter of a century, specialising in close-up magic, sleight of hand and mind-reading style illusions.

Over the years I've performed at weddings, parties, corporate events and celebrations all over the UK. I've also had the rather unusual experience of being involved with the BBC drama Hustle, where my knowledge of magic and sleight of hand was used in the production.

My magic videos have also attracted millions of views on YouTube, so I've had people watching my magic from all over the world. Plus I have also gained a considerable amount of online reviews.

If you’re celebrating an anniversary, I can provide something a little different from the standard evening out.

Why Hire a Magician for an Anniversary?

An anniversary is about celebrating the two of you, but often there are other people involved too.

Perhaps you’re having a meal with family. Maybe you’ve invited close friends. Perhaps you’re throwing a larger party.

Whatever the occasion, a magician can help turn a meal or party into something people actually talk about afterwards.

I perform close-up magic, which means I don’t need a stage, complicated equipment or a suspiciously large top hat.

I walk around the guests and perform small groups of people at a time.

A playing card can appear somewhere impossible. Or a borrowed ring can mysteriously disappear.

Someone can think of something I apparently have no way of knowing.

And yes, occasionally someone says, "I know how you did that."

They usually don't.

Bath is a brilliant place for an anniversary celebration.

You've got beautiful restaurants, hotels, pubs, private venues and plenty of places where couples can enjoy an evening together.

But there is one slight problem with a meal.

At some point, someone has to say:

"That was lovely. Shall we go home?"

Magic gives the evening another dimension.

I can perform during a drinks reception before the meal, between courses, after the meal or during the party afterwards.

The magic can be fitted around your plans rather than taking over the entire evening.

That’s important because it’s your anniversary, not my audition.

Close-Up Magic That Gets Everyone Involved

One of the things I like most about close-up magic is that people aren't simply sitting there watching a performance.

They're involved in it.

I’ll often use borrowed objects, playing cards, coins, phones, rings and other everyday items.

That makes the magic feel personal.

And when somebody's own wedding ring vanishes from their hand and appears somewhere it absolutely shouldn't be, they tend to remember it.

Hopefully they get the ring back.

I do have a good track record. Most of the time.

A Magician for Anniversary Parties

Not every anniversary celebration is a quiet romantic meal for two.

Some couples go considerably further.

There might be a big party with family, friends, music, food and enough photographs to fill a small hard drive.

This is where close-up magic can work particularly well.

People naturally gather in small groups at parties. This makes it easy for me to move around the room and entertain different groups throughout the event.

I don't need everyone sitting silently facing me. In fact, that would be rather awkward.

Close-up magic works best when people are chatting, laughing and enjoying themselves.

I simply add a little magic to the occasion.

Anniversary Entertainment for All Ages

Although I perform at family celebrations, weddings and parties, my style of magic is aimed primarily at adults.

I specialise in close-up magic, sleight of hand and mind-reading style effects rather than children's entertainment.

That makes my performances particularly suitable for adult anniversary celebrations, dinner parties and evening events.

The magic is designed to be entertaining rather than simply showing off a collection of clever tricks. There is a difference.

I can do something technically difficult and leave people thinking, "Well, that was clever."

Or I can make them laugh, get them involved and leave them wondering what on earth just happened. I'll take the second option.

Wedding Anniversary Magic Bath

If you're celebrating a wedding anniversary, a wedding magician in Bath can also bring back some of the atmosphere of the original wedding day.

Perhaps you're celebrating your first anniversary. Perhaps you've made it to ten years. Twenty. Thirty.

Or you've been married so long that you've stopped counting because the calculator gave up.

Whatever the milestone, it deserves to be celebrated.

For larger anniversary parties, I can mingle among your guests and perform informal close-up magic throughout the event.

It gives people something to talk about and provides entertainment without interrupting the rest of your evening.

And because the magic happens close-up, guests get to see everything from just a few feet away. Or at least they think they do.

What Sort of Magic Do I Perform?

My close-up magic includes a mixture of sleight of hand, playing cards, coins, borrowed objects and mind-reading style illusions.

I don't rely on huge props or elaborate stage equipment.

That means I can perform in a restaurant, hotel, private home, function room or party venue.

I've performed at all sorts of events over the years, and one thing I've learned is that people don't necessarily want to sit through a long formal show.

They want to have fun. They want to be surprised. And they want something they can talk about afterwards.

That's exactly where close-up magic comes into its own.

Why Choose Andy Field?

I've been performing magic professionally for a quarter of a century, so I've had plenty of time to learn that being a good magician isn't just about knowing how to perform a trick.

It's about knowing how to entertain people.

I've performed at weddings, private parties, corporate events and many other occasions, entertaining people with magic that happens right in front of them.

I've also accumulated more than 20 million views on YouTube, hundreds of Google reviews and hundreds of Facebook recommendations.

I've even been consulted for BBC's Hustle.

I'm fortunate that I don't have to rely on magic to pay the bills, which means I don't need to charge inflated Saturday-night fees. I can concentrate on what I really enjoy — performing powerful, entertaining magic — while keeping my prices competitive.

And I don't charge extra simply because your anniversary happens to fall on a Saturday.

Anniversary Magician Bath Prices

The cost of hiring an anniversary magician depends on the event, the number of guests and the type of entertainment you're looking for.

I don't charge simply by the number of minutes I'm performing.

My fees reflect my experience, skills, showmanship and reliability.

I also don't charge extra for travelling to your venue. Or penalise you because your guests are having such a good time that the evening runs a little longer.

The best thing to do is tell me what you're planning. Also where the anniversary celebration is taking place and roughly how many people will be there.

I'll then be able to give you a straightforward quote.

No mysterious magician's pricing system.

I've got enough mystery in the actual magic.

Book an Anniversary Magician in Bath

If you're planning an anniversary celebration in Bath and want to give your guests something genuinely different, close-up magic could be the perfect addition.

Whether you're planning a romantic anniversary dinner, a private party or a larger celebration with friends and family, I can mingle among your guests and perform throughout the event.

The result is entertainment that doesn't feel like a separate show. It simply becomes part of the evening. And hopefully, years later, someone will still be saying:

"Do you remember when that magician made the ring disappear?"

That's much better than:

"Do you remember what we had for pudding?"
