Magician Manchester: Phil Taylor AIMC
I’m Phil Taylor, and for the last 20 years, I’ve made a living by messing with people’s heads—in the best way possible.
I don't do flashy boxes or dramatic smoke machines. I specialize in high-end close-up magic, psychological mind reading, and misdirection that happens right in your hands. I hold the rank of Associate of The Inner Magic Circle with a Silver Star (A.I.M.C.), which is a fancy way of saying I’ve been tested by the best in the world and came out on top.
With £10M in Public Liability Insurance and a client list that includes the BBC, Selfridges, the NHS, and the Commonwealth Games, I know exactly how to read a room, break the ice, and guarantee your guests have the time of their lives.
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
Weddings
Your wedding day shouldn't have awkward lulls while you are off having photos taken. I step in during the drinks reception or the wedding breakfast to keep the energy electric. It’s the perfect way to merge two families who have never met, creating shared moments of absolute astonishment.
Corporate Events
If you are planning a corporate gala, an awards night, or a high-stakes client dinner in Manchester, you need entertainment that reflects the quality of your brand. I deliver sharp, professional, mind-bending magic that leaves a lasting impression on your VIPs, executives, and staff.
Private Milestone Parties
Turning 40? 50? Celebrating a major anniversary? House parties and private venue hires need a spark to get the atmosphere moving. I mingle with your guests, performing hard-hitting magic that turns a standard get-together into the party of the year.
The VIP Mind Reading Parlour Experience
Alongside standard close-up and table magic, I offer something completely different: The VIP Mind Reading Parlour. Instead of just performing as I walk around, I set up an interactive, mini-show experience right inside your venue. Guests gather in small groups for a private, high-impact session of psychological mind reading, impossible predictions, and intense sleight of hand. It gives your event a dedicated entertainment hot-spot and creates an incredible atmosphere that people line up to experience.
