Magician Lichfield | Phil Taylor AIMC

Hi, I’m Phil. I don't do pulling rabbits out of hats, and I definitely don't do cheesy top hats and tails. What I do is walk into a room of strangers and turn them into a roaring, laughing, fully engaged crowd.

I’ve been a professional magician for over 20 years. In that time, I’ve performed for the BBC, Selfridges, the NHS, and the Commonwealth Games. I am also an Associate of The Inner Magic Circle with a Silver Star (a mouthful, I know, but it basically means I didn't just buy my tricks on the internet). Combine that with £10M Public Liability Insurance, and you can rest easy knowing you are booking an elite, risk-free professional who actually knows how to work a room.

LIVE MAGIC • HIT PLAY

Phil is an amazing entertainer and had the whole room amazed and wanting more all evening. We booked him for our engagement party and all of our family and friends spoke about him all night and several took his details to book him for their events.
His magic is flawless, his banter is brilliant, and he made people laugh. Overall, we were very pleased and would certainly book him again.​

Event Magic Tailored to You

Wedding Magician Lichfield

Weddings are beautiful, but let's be honest—there is always that awkward lull while the photographer drags you away for an hour. That is where I step in. I mix and mingle during the drinks reception or the wedding breakfast, bridging the gaps so your family and friends aren't just standing around checking their phones. I get your university mates laughing with your grandad inside of five minutes.

Private Milestone Parties

Whether it is a 40th birthday, a silver anniversary, or an intimate dinner party, close-up magic is the ultimate icebreaker. I perform right in the hands of your guests, creating shared moments of absolute disbelief that they will talk about long after the hangover wears off.

Corporate Events

Need to wake up a sleepy conference room or add serious energy to an awards dinner? I’ve trusted by some of the UK's biggest brands to deliver high-impact, professional entertainment that reflects perfectly on your company.

The VIP Mind Reading Parlour Experience

Looking for something totally different? Forget the walkaround magic. The VIP Mind Reading Parlour Experience is an interactive, sit-down mini-show designed for smaller, exclusive groups. It is highly psychological, completely interactive, and involves your guests in a way standard table magic just can't match. It’s perfect for intimate private parties or VIP corporate retreats where you want to leave people genuinely speechless.

Local Magic Across Lichfield

I regularly perform across Staffordshire and the West Midlands. Here are just a few of the top local spots I cover:

Location / Town Top Local Venues Event Types
Lichfield City Centre The George Hotel, Erasmus Darwin House Intimate Weddings, Corporate Dinners
Rural Lichfield Swinfen Hall Hotel, Coton House Farm Large Weddings, Milestone Parties
Surrounding Areas Alrewas Hayes, The School House VIP Parlour Shows, Private Events

Transparent Pricing & Unmatched Quality

Let’s talk numbers. I am not the cheapest magician in the Midlands, and I don't try to be. When you book me, you are paying for 20 years of crowd-reading experience, guaranteed reliability, and world-class sleight of hand.

My packages range from £375 to £1,500, depending on the day of the week, the length of the performance, and the type of package you choose. Cheap amateur acts might save you a few quid, but they won't save a dying room.

Lichfield Magician FAQ

How far in advance should I book you for an event in Lichfield? +

I recommend getting in touch as soon as you have your date and venue locked in. Saturdays throughout peak wedding season and key corporate dates in November and December often book out 9 to 18 months ahead.

That said, I always welcome last-minute enquiries for weekday gatherings or private celebrations across Lichfield. Drop me a note through my contact page and I will check my calendar for you.

Which venues have you worked at in and around Lichfield? +

I have performed across Staffordshire for over 20 years, entertaining guests at locations like Swinfen Hall, The School House in Weeford, Packington Moor, and Netherstowe House. Whether you are hosting a formal banquet, an informal garden reception, or a corporate dinner, I adapt naturally to the layout and timing of your venue.

How much does it cost to hire a magician in Lichfield? +

My pricing is open and transparent, typically ranging between £375 and £1,500. Exact fees depend on the day of the week, performance duration, guest numbers, and whether you require close-up walkaround magic or my VIP Mind Reading Parlour Experience. Because Lichfield is local to me, there are no added travel expenses.

What styles of magic do you provide for Lichfield weddings and corporate events? +

I offer close-up sleight of hand, mix-and-mingle drinks reception magic, table magic between dinner courses, and psychological mind reading. For private milestone parties and VIP suites, I also perform my VIP Mind Reading Parlour Experience, an interactive mini-show featuring impossible predictions and mind reading designed for seated groups.

Are you insured, and what credentials do you hold as a Lichfield entertainer? +

I carry £10M Public Liability Insurance, satisfying every health and safety standard required by venues and corporate coordinators. I am also an Associate of The Inner Magic Circle with Silver Star (AIMC), which reflects the highest level of stage and close-up performance assessment.

You can view my credentials on my Magic Circle profile. Over 20 years in entertainment, I have performed for clients such as the BBC, NHS, and Selfridges, supported by 120+ 5-star Google reviews.
