Daryl McKinley uses a comedic approach to combine sleight of hand with sleight of mind in a way that will knock your guests for at least six. His magic is driven by his core philosophy:
"Every minute you’re not dead should be spent getting the absolute most out of life."
Through his interactive performances he strives to help others do just that.

Incredible service from an incredible person. I would hire this gent for my next party just as an engaging conversationalist; the mind-blowing magic was a bonus.
Daryl was a joy to deal with, not only is he a fantastic magician but his wit and comedy had us in stitches. I will have no hesitation in booking him again and would thoroughly recommend him to add the perfect touch to any event.
Daryl lifted the party to another level for us and our guests. His magic was astounding but what was even better was the way he floated around the room, connecting with every group, making them laugh and enabling them to connect with each other. I've seen a few decent magicians at weddings and work events but none of them could hold a candle to Daryl. We feel so lucky that we were able to book him and we heartily recommend his services to anyone.
Daryl did some amazing close-up magic at my birthday party. Everyone loved it! He was also really funny - we'll definitely book him again. Thanks so much for a great night!

Varies depending on number of guests and running order of event. I have performed for 20 minutes one day and 3 hours the next.
Close up magic and mind reading.
Almost certainly. Close up magic, performed well, is incredibly versatile. I have performed at every type of event from trade shows to rambunctious student parties.
Anything from tens to thousands. The largest event I have performed at is perhaps a festival for 1500 guests in Fife, though if you would like everyone at an event of such scale to see close up magic it is advisable to hire more than one magician.
