“This was my very first experience of hosting a party and Magic Philip ticked all the ‘boxes’ for me. His professionalism and experience were undeniable – a large group of 5 year-olds and their parents were equally amused and entertained. He engaged the kids with magic, games, stories and humour – it was perfect for the kids and even the adults had a fair share of jokes and fun.
Philip arrived early and had everything set up in time for the guests’ arrival. He was very friendly with both kids and adults during the party. His ‘show’ was very well-structured and he guided the kids beautifully through all the activities. He indicated when it was time for them to wash hands, time to eat, time to sing ‘Happy Birthday’, time to play games, and time to say good-bye/thank you and go home. My daughter loved Philip and everything about the party! And I loved watching my child and her friends having a very enjoyable time, so I could just focus on being a ‘host’ and enjoy the special occasion.
I would recommend Magic Philip whole-heartedly to anyone who is looking for a high quality entertainment. Kids loved Magic Philip and the parents loved watching their little ones having a GREAT time. Thank you, Magic Philip!” ” Elena Nalimova, Chorlton January 2023

From the moment he arrived he entertained our children, even while he set up, allowing us to get on with getting the room ready.
Once all the children arrived he had their attention from the start and they all had a ball – the laughter filled the room.
We chose the stress-free package and it really was, we could chat to the parents and Magic Philip ensured that everything ran to plan including reminding us when to get the food in the oven and presenting the cake.
All the children and adults had a ball and a number of parents said how their kids had been performing magic tricks all week afterwards.
We could not fault Magic Philip and would highly recommend – thank for a truly magical party.
Isaac and Edith are still talking about you.” Sarah Webster The Hub, Altrincham February 2022
“We booked Magic Philip 5 months in advance, and he kept us updated throughout the whole process.
Magic Philip also has his own party invitations, if you’re struggling to source any, or don’t want the stress of it.
On the day, Magic Philip turned up earlier than we expected. He went through everything that was needed and while he was setting up, he was also entertaining my two children while we were decorating the function room.
The Magic Philip show absolutely blew everyone away. Not only keeping all the children entertained and making sure every child felt part of the show, it also allowed the adults to watch the show as well, and be entertained. Magic Philip’s attention to detail is phenomenal and he is an amazing performer.

A huge thank you for being everything and more Polly wanted for her 6th Birthday party.
You have truly captured her imagination and she’s been performing spells with her very own wand.
I would never have imagined you could captivate the attention and concentration of 40 children aged 2-6 years old. You not only entertained the children but the adults too and there was lots of giggles all round.
From a mum point of view you took all the hassle and organising of children off my hands so I could enjoy the show with my birthday girl and all her friends.
I’ve had so much lovely feedback from mums and dads saying their children have all had an amazing time.
Quote Polly (6 years old) “best party to infinity and beyond”.

“Occasion : Post 11-Plus Exam Party
Audience : 10 year old school girls
What a stroke of genius on my wife’s part to book Magic Philip. She had previously encountered him at a Chamber’s event for barristers a few years back .
Philip is just a delightful and instantly likeable person.
He came armed with his technical paraphernalia eg microphone, speakers, strobe lighting , dramatic music sound effects. This set the scene for a very professionally delivered performance involving some fantastic props eg the guillotine !
Philip captivated the girls for the whole 1 hour with his energy, charm and great wit. He engaged with them on an individual level and he clearly has an innate talent for entertaining people of all ages.
We feel privileged in having Philip perform at our daughters’ party and turn it into an even more magical and memorable occasion.
Thank you Philip.” Umair Masood Altrincham (October 2021)

We chose the complete 2-hour package. Wow 😮 well worth the money.
I got to watch the whole party and laugh and relax.

Philip entertained a group of around 15 seven year olds and younger siblings brilliantly. He had them in fits of giggles from the start and kept all their attention throughout the entire show.
He addressed them all personally and wowed them with his tricks, puppets and gags. Philip was genuinely hugely entertaining and we found that we were (as adults) laughing along just as much as the kids.
Our son had a fantastic experience and all his friends (and their parents) were really impressed.

I would highly recommend Philip to anyone wanting a different, enjoyable and stress-free party. Philip took control on the day, which left me free to chat to the adults and sip on champers, which I loved. He knew exactly how to deal with all the different personalities and did it all with a smile – the whole experience was slick and seamless.

You said you would provide a stress free entertainment package and you did! These days there are so many hidden charges it’s refreshing to meet someone who gives exactly what he offers. Whilst being the consummate professional you were warm and friendly to everyone at the party, you put everyone at ease. It was great to see everyone smiling and laughing so much. All the children under your spell, they were so attentive…. not that they are horrors of course, just some of them can be rather lively!

Not only did you keep the kids and adults entertained during your show; your organisation was second to none. Everyone knew where they were supposed to be when it came to tea time. You had all the children listening when you did the Birthday cakes and the party games were excellent. They had the kids involved but without being excluded at any time. They were perfect. And of course Eve and Will felt so special. And so did us Mums at the end!

It is a rare skill. Thank you so much.” – Paul Vallely Associate Editor THE INDEPENDENT, Sale. (February 2012)

The show was not only entertaining because of the magic tricks but by your wonderful sense of humour and conversation throughout the show. We were very impressed with the care and attention to detail you gave from the moment we booked. You had everything under control as the first little guests arrived and you managed to keep the lively children in hand and include the quieter children all in a lovely friendly and yet funny way. How do you remember all their names?! The children have all said how much they enjoyed ” and that the party was absolutely brilliant.

You were brilliant, the children loved you, and told their parents, many sending me texts last night about how much their children had loved it. From my point of view you were well and truly beyond my expectations. I especially loved the way you guided me, brought in children who missed Mums and the way you remember names!

“A massive thank you for all your hard work and entertainment for Joe’s 4th Birthday Party, he absolutely had one of the best days of his little life and your act played a huge part in this, magic is now officially cool! We were really impressed by your professionalism and ability to keep more than 35 four year olds engaged for two hours and we had some really great feedback from the parents too with many mums and dads saying what a great party it was at school this morning (and there were a couple of children who had brought in their magic wands to class too!).
p.s. We had another birthday party to attend yesterday with an “entertainer” who only served to highlight how good you are! His old grey teddies, cassette player and sign with 061 still on it were not a patch on MAGIC PHILIP, most of the kids had got up and ran off after about ten minutes… felt a bit sorry for him! Needless to say the mum who was at Joe’s party asked for your number for next time.” – Vicky & Jeff Crewe, Timperley. (February 2011)
“We really liked your traditional comedy magic show, and also appreciated your management of the whole event. The children’s giggling and laughter throughout the show spoke for itself, but feedback after the event was also fantastic: one boy told his mum that it was the most wonderful party he had ever been to. Kids might ‘grow up too quickly’ nowadays, but there is clearly plenty of appetite for your kind of show. Please keep up the good work: we look forward to booking you again in the future.” – Jo & David Dagustun, Hyde. (January 2011)

“We all had a great party; kids & parents equally found your magic show fun & exciting! With having the party at home, it took the pressure off us having someone organise & keep the children entertained & extremely happy.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you; thanks again.” – Sally & Eamonn O’Loughlin Didsbury. (January 2011)

We chose the 2-hour stress-free party package, & it was well worth the money. I was actually able to sit down & enjoy the show, & I can honestly say I felt serene throughout! Lots of the mums commented on how good he was. We had the party at home, with the magic show & games in the living room & the party food in the back room. Even with 17 children, it was all very civilised as he was well & truly in control. He is very chatty & sociable & is great with the children. Highly recommended.” – Victoria & Matthew Philpotts, Didsbury
