ABOUT GEORGE

Black Spade.png

George Billingham is a professional close-up magician with over 10 years’ experience. He started performing magic at an early age. His interest grew from there and George won a nationwide Magic Competition which enabled him to have the honour at 17 to go to the Prestigious Magic Circle Club in London.

​

He is one of Birmingham’s finest magicians, working in both the private and the corporate markets. He performs his style of magic at: Weddings, Corporate Events, Private Parties, Birthday Celebrations, Cocktail Parties, Garden Parties, BBQs, Charity Balls and House Parties. Indeed, wherever there are people, George can perform.

​

George has performed at a string of highly prestigious events including backstage at Free Radio Live at ‘The Resorts World Arena’ in Birmingham for the last 7 years, entertaining the stars as well as the VIP guests.

​

George has been entertaining audiences for many years, performing in a range of venues from bars to private functions, to the most exclusive Wedding Venues. George is now an expert icebreaker, conversationalist and is available to hire as a Wedding Magician, Close Up Magician and Corporate Events Magician.

​

​Unlike other magicians you may have seen George’s approach to magic, it’s neither loud, cheesy nor brash. He focuses on performing refined miracles delivered with humour and style. If you are looking for bunny rabbits, top hats or sawing someone in half… you might want to look elsewhere.

WEDDINGS

Red Heart.png

It’s your big day and you only want the best. If you would like something unique for your wedding day, the close-up magic of George can make your special day even more magical. Close-up magic is the perfect icebreaker for guests who may not know each other and creates an immediate atmosphere of fun at your wedding venue.

​

The reactions of your guests can also create some fabulous photo opportunities for your wedding album! Not only do you want a perfect day, but you would like your guests to go away and remember your wedding as being fantastic. George understands that weddings rarely run exactly on time. He can easily adapt to changes in your timings and you won't get charged any extra because things are running a bit late. George’s close-up magic is suitable for all ages, so it's entertainment that all your guests will enjoy, from the oldest to the youngest. 

​

George's close-up magic can be performed anywhere, indoors or out.  This means the entertainment can easily move from one room to another, or out into the grounds of the venue if your guests are enjoying the sun.

AFTERNOON DRINKS RECEPTION

 

As soon as the ceremony is over, the happy couple will go for the all-important photos. This leaves guests and the two families alone, and many will not have met before.  Whilst the happy couple are having their photographs taken, George entertains the guests as they are enjoying the canapés and drinks reception.  Then as the happy couple re-joins their guests, the photographer can then capture the fun!

WEDDING BREAKFAST

 

It’s virtually impossible to sit everyone with other people they know, or who they want to sit next to. This can lead to awkward silences when guests sit down during the wedding breakfast. George can entertain at each table between courses. It is a perfect way to break the ice as well as a great talking point for the table. It also gives the photographer a great opportunity to capture some great reactions.

EVENING RECEPTION

 

After the meal and speeches, there is a natural “lull” where guests are left waiting for the evening guests and DJ to arrive. Having George perform magic during this period is an excellent way to stop guests getting bored and frustrated. George can entertain all of your guests during the turnaround time and can be on hand to welcome any extra guests to the wedding and offer the perfect start to your evening celebration.

 

Providing memorable wedding entertainment is becoming increasingly popular and for such an important day, he believes it is essential to make the right decision about how to provide your guests with a magical day. George has performed as a table magician at hundreds of weddings, from smaller more intimate gatherings, to grand performances at prestigious venues.

In the corporate market, this is where George can be used in endless ways to help get your message across to your clients. Close up magic can be the perfect icebreaker where clients may not have previously known each other.

TRADE SHOWS & EXPOS

 

When performing at Trade Shows, George attracts a larger audience to your stand than any other around. This creates numerous sales opportunities for your staff to work with. During the act, your own unique selling point will be carried across with the effects, making your stand the most popular and the most memorable.

​

George can draw delegates in, adapting his tricks to help promote specific products or services, and then handing over valuable leads.

​

The ultimate aim of a corporate event is to forge valuable working relationships. As such, the carefully selected corporate guests should leave feeling that they have been treated like VIPs, keen to engage and reconnect with their hosts in the near future.

AN EXTENSION OF YOUR

SALES TEAM

 

Rather than simply entertain at corporate events, George can use his experience in sales, and his “gift of the gab”, to promote a client’s particular product, service or event. His approachable, cheeky demeanour puts guests at ease and breaks the ice.

​

George can perform his magic to corporate guests which is an effective way to break down barriers and build these relationships.

GALA DINNERS

 

When performing at gala dinners, George can perform table magic to each table receiving their own private show without interrupting the meal or service.
