What an amazing performance
What an amazing performance. David wandered casually to every
group of guests and simply stunned them! Some had seen a "Close up Magician" before, but none as slick and professional as this.
People were still talking about his performance hours after he had left. Thanks for everything David.
Highly recommended and we'll definitely use Magikman the next time we have a barbie!

I cannot speak highly enough of David
I cannot speak highly enough of David. His magic was incredible and he was a real talking point from our party. Our guests were absolutely amazed by his tricks and we have all been left wondering 'how on earth did he do that!' Thank you David it was a treat having you entertain us.

Magikman and our perfect wedding
What a pleasure it was to have David be a part of our wedding. The day was so much fun and everyone that managed to spend time with David said how amazing he was and wish they got to spend longer with him to see his magic! I couldn’t recommend enough

David is a great magician he has…
David is a great magician he has attended 3 Yorkshire Publicity Association Charity Events. Our Summer BBQ and two Black Tie Formal Xmas Events. He amazed, entertained and fascinated our guests. I could not have asked for more.
He will always be very welcome at any of our future events. I can highly recommend him. He is very professional, reliable and so lovely and easy to work with.
Very happy to give David 5 Stars but I would prefer to give him 10 **********

Hired David for my wedding nights…
Hired David for my wedding nights entertainment, everyone was blown away with his brilliance, adults and kids alike. He even went the extra mile to visit us in our own home for a demonstration before we hired him. He really is a brilliant magician and i cannot recommend him highly enough, not only that he is a true gentleman. Hire this guy and you will not be dissapointed. Beware you life will never be the same even the doubters will believe that magic exists.
