Magician Shrewsbury
Proud member of The Magic Circle. 120+ five‑star reviews.
You will find me performing in Shrewsbury almost every week. From luxury corporate events at Albright Hussey Manor to beautiful summer weddings at Rowton Castle, this is my home turf. I do not just do standard magic; I bring A.I.M.C. award-winning sleight of hand, mind reading, and real comedy directly to your guests. My exact job is to shatter the awkward small talk and build massive energy in the room before your event has even fully kicked off.
Magician Shrewsbury: Elite Close-Up Magic by Phil Taylor A.I.M.C.
Let’s cut to the chase. You are planning an event in Shrewsbury, and you want it to be brilliant. You don’t want polite applause or awkward silences. You want genuine gasps, laughter, and guests asking, “How on earth did he do that?”
I am Phil Taylor. I have spent over 20 years perfecting the art of close-up magic and mind reading. I hold an A.I.M.C with a Silver Star from The Magic Circle, carry £10M in public liability insurance, and have performed for heavy-hitters like Selfridges, the BBC, the Commonwealth Games, and the NHS. But credentials aside, my real job is simple: I make sure your guests have an incredible time.
Event Magic Tailored to You
Whether you are tying the knot or hosting the company Christmas bash, I adapt my performance to fit the room.
Shrewsbury Wedding Magician
Weddings have a lot of dead time. The photos, the room turnaround, the lull before the evening buffet. I step in during these moments, mingling with your family and friends to keep the energy high. It brings both sides of the family together and gives your photographer some brilliant candid reaction shots.
Corporate Event Entertainment
Nothing kills a corporate dinner faster than forced networking. I break the ice with high-impact close-up magic that gets everyone talking. Whether it is a product launch, an awards gala, or a team-building retreat, I give your colleagues a shared experience that they will actually want to talk about on Monday morning.
Private Milestone Parties
Turning 40? 50? Celebrating a massive anniversary? I bring the entertainment directly to your guests' hands. No stage required. Just world-class sleight of hand right in your living room or hired venue.

The VIP Mind Reading Parlour Experience
If you want something a little different from the standard mix-and-mingle magic, ask about my VIP Mind Reading Parlour Experience. This is a dedicated, intimate mini-show where small groups of guests experience psychological illusions, influence, and mind reading.
