How much do you charge?Fee's depend on the event type, booking duration (usually starting at one hour), and the event address/distance from Leeds. My prices and packages can be located on the relevant pages. Wedding packages can be found on the weddings page, and likewise for corporate events. General party entertainment prices including birthdays, engagements, anniversaries etc... can only be obtained via getting in touch for a quote. Please include event type, and event postcode when requesting a quote. Please note, prices and packages displayed on the website do not include travel & expenses. This is factored in afterwards. No travel expenses are required within Leeds, but subsistence expenses could apply for longer duration bookings.

What's involved in the booking process?You can expect a very easy, simple and straightforward booking experience. The booking process consists of three simple steps: You request a quote from me. I'll send you the requested quote. If you're happy with my proposal, I'll then send you an invoice, and you pay a £25 deposit to reserve the slot and block my diary. If the event is fairly soon, then payment in full may be required. Unless you've paid in full, the remainder of the booking fee isn't due until one week before the event. That's literally it! Very easy, simple and straightforward. I also email you a couple of days before the event as a courtesy 'check in', to make sure everything is 'good to go'. When I arrive on the day, I'll say hello to the bookers or event contact, and then make a start entertaining at the agreed time. No fussy set ups required.

If I cancel, will I be refunded?Yes, I do provide customers with refunds. I believe it's wrong not to. The deposit payment is non refundable, unless cancellation is made by me, in this case a full refunded will be provided. In some cases, the payment terms on the invoice may include up to a 50% non refundable fee if cancellation is made by the client, this is to cover loss of business from other clients when my diary was blocked for you. If cancellation is made by me, a 100% refund will always be provided.

What can I expect on the event day?On the day, I will simply arrive, say hello to the booker, or the event contact if the booker is busy, and then make a start, entertaining with my mix and mingle mind blowing magic and mind reading. I will seamlessly stroll from group to group or table to table using my personality, love of people and magical skills to make people laugh, make them amazed, and have a good time. I have great social awareness, so I keep everything respectful and appropriate, according to my audience. Whether it's a table of five lads, or a group with children present, I use social awareness to tailor my entertainment style to each group.
-
How far do you travel?I travel worldwide. Fee's will include full travel, accommodation (when appropriate) and expenses. If overseas, there will also be an additional day rate of £275 per day. This is to cover loss of business on travel days and during my time outside of the UK. In most cases, if it's a long distance UK based event, an additional day rate is not required.
-
What if you're sick on the event day, or break your leg, then what?If I've got the flu on your event day, or have an accident or emergency which prevents me from performing, do not worry. I have plenty of magicians on my database, all at a professional level, ready to cover me in times of emergency. I also cover them if I'm available. I would simply provide you with two options, either a full refund, or a professional magician, chosen and vetted by me, to cover for me and perform at your event as per our original agreement. No extra payments or admin on your side. All my magician colleagues are fully covered with Public Liability Insurance, just for everyone's peace of mind.
