Jodie Taylor31 Dec 2025

Connor was amazing from pre-event communications to on the day. A really nice guy with amazing talents. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook and recommend.

Deborah Cameron8 Oct 2025

A slight misunderstanding caused Justin to arrive half an hour later than expected, but entertained for the agreed length of time. He mingled freely amongst my guests, wowing them with this 'magic'. He had a pleasant demeanor and everyone liked him. He was a great addition to the event and I would definitely recommend him.

George Budd7 Apr 2024

Connor was a brilliant addition to our dinner party. His magic was incredible - we were all amazed - and he made us all feel at ease; it was though we had an extra friend for a bit! Would wholeheartedly recommend him and expect he’ll be getting some repeat private and corporate bookings from our party. What a cracking chap!

Natasha Fotheringham20 Nov 2023

Our guests were astounded. Everyone was talking about the magic all day! We appreciated so so much that you came to do some magic with us as well before you left so we didn't miss out. Had we known you were this magic we would have booked you for far longer, I think some of our engaged guests a actually wanted to make a booking with you as well after seeing how amazing you were. Can't thank you enough.

Daniel was on time, very friendly, extremely talented and an absolute pleasure to have performing for us. I can't recomment him highly enough.

Bhavika Godhwani22 Dec 2018

It was my son's 14th birthday. Got Kayo to come over and entertain the family. We had age group from 3 years old to 75 years young. Every 1 had a great time. Kayo entertained all our guests. He was absolutely amazing. Have seen plenty if illusionist but he was brilliant. What was fascinating that he was up close and the guys were trying to figure out the tricks but failed to do so. Kayo made my son feel special on his birthday. Kayo also was very interactive so every one had a great time. There was not a dull second. Kayo was amazing. Wishing him best.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
