Essex

MAGICIAN IN ESSEX

One county, very different events, and a performance that adapts to each of them.

Essex covers everything from rural barn weddings in the north to large corporate venues in the commuter belt, and the entertainment that works for one is not automatically right for the other.

Because Mr. Vail is based in Colchester, the whole county is within comfortable reach, which means bookings across Essex are treated as local work rather than long distance travel.

Northern Essex: barns, halls and country venues

Around Colchester, Braintree, Halstead, Witham and Manningtree, weddings are often held in converted barns and country hotels with long drinks receptions and separate rooms for each part of the day. Close up magic fits those gaps without needing any staging.

Coastal areas including Clacton, Frinton and Harwich bring seasonal celebrations, family events and hospitality bookings where table to table magic works well.

Central and southern Essex: larger venues and corporate events

Chelmsford, Brentwood and the surrounding commuter belt host a higher proportion of corporate dinners, awards evenings and large function room events. These often suit a stage performance as a formal entertainment slot, with close up magic during the reception.

Larger guest numbers also make longer bookings more useful, since covering a big room properly with close up magic takes more than a single hour.

Booking across Essex

Close up magic starts at £150 per hour and stage magic at £350, with all day options for full event coverage. Tell Mr. Vail the venue and the shape of the day in your booking request and he will advise which format actually suits it.
