What an amazing night! I had around 20 guests from one of my clients out for an evening and Ifty kept the whole room mesmerised. Days later and people are still talking about how amazing he was. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Everything about Ifty and his magic, and trust me by the end of the evening you will believe in magic is highly polished. More...

Ifty was amazing from the initial contact I made on Bark to the incredible magic provided at my birthday party.
He was witty, engaging and all my guests (age range 23 to 83) were left convinced it was magic!!

Absolutely wonderful and worth every penny.
Everyone that I have spoken to that attended our event said Ifty was the highlight of the evening and he really was.
So easy with the crowd, utterly mind blowing with tricks I had never seen before and all round a very easy going and nice guy. Ifty created a really comfortable environment and drew people in, to take part and be amazed.
I wouldn't hesitate to book Ifty again.

Ifty’s title of Amazing Magician is beet well earned! A fantastic experience from start to finish. Professional and punctual and his magic wowed my guests just as he promised and really elevated the fun levels of my 50th birthday party. I totally agree with all the other positive reviews here. Don’t dither, just book him and I guarantee you won’t be disappointed. Thanks Ifty! More...
Samantha Boghossian
I had such an incredible experience with Ifty (The Amazing Magician) from Start to Finish, I have nothing but praise for him! Firstly, he connected me almost immediately after submitting a request for a magician for a last-minute event, and when discussing what I was looking for, for the evening, he was extremely accommodating and we managed to create a package that suited us perfectly. On the night of the event, Ifty began leaving my guests speachless after only a couple of minutes...not easy to do at the best of times! However, it just got better and better throughout the night, and left us all absolutely amazed - we couldn't stop talking about for days after. We will 100% be using Ifty again and would most definitely recommend to anybody whether it be a small dinner party or large event. Thank you so much. More...

Ifty was absolutely fantastic. Wonderful close-up magic, fascinating the guests the entire time. We thoroughly enjoyed the show. His timing and ‘reading the room’ to know when and with which magic tricks to show at the right time during the evening represented his professionalism entirely. I cannot recommend him enough.

Prepared to be amazed!! Wow wow.
Ifty was a major highlight. Thankfully he could accommodate me having only booked him 3 days before our party.
From the minute I contacted him, he gave me all the info I needed and I felt confident enough to book him there and then. Our guest loved his new modern magic, and I’m still trying to work out how her does his tricks. The finale was the highlight, everyone was fully entertained.
A great magician and a very nice guy too, highly recommend having him at any event he will be a hit.

From the get-go I knew that Ifty would be amazing. I wanted a magician for my 60th birthday party with 90 guests and my expectations were high. His initial response was quick, I felt really confident in his abilities from speaking with him and he was clear about what he could offer. On the night, he exceeded my expectations and really helped make the evening a fantastic experience for everyone. The feedback from my guests was overwhelmingly positive. Book him - you wont be disappointed. More...

Diana Parker
Ifty did exactly what he promised - mingled unobtrusively with guests at a drinks reception where most people did not know others there, to create small groups who could continue to get to know each other after he had passed to the next group, whilst meanwhile being astounded. This was in a college at Oxford university of highly educated people used to not being caught out, but his card tricks, money tricks and mind readings left everyone amazed, and seriously impressed. I am recommending him widely and More...

Ifty attended our launch party for a new business and the crowd really enjoyed his tricks. Before the event, he was easy to communicate with, quick to respond and very transparent. On the day, he just got on with approaching different groups of people and dazzling them with some mind-bending displays of magic/mind reading. We really enjoyed having him at the event and many guests have asked for his details since. More...
Anthony Jackson
Magician
Ifty was brilliant.
Exactly what I hoped for.
He worked the room wonderfully and managed to blend in whilst also being the main event.
Nobody could work out how he did any of his tricks. Excellent use of contemporary magic with peoples phones, mind reading and some traditional magic.
If I have another big event again I wouldn’t hesitate to book him.
Thanks again for making my birthday so memorable.

How long have you been interested in magic?
I have had an interest in magic since the age of 10. I performed magic as a hobby for a number of years before turning professional at the age of 30.
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
I will typically work with a client to establish the best format for their special event. I will suggest ideas and approaches that have worked well as a guide.
A typical show will include;
Transformations: Magical appearances and changes of inspected objects (cards, money, etc.)
Transpositions: Cards/objects instantly disappear and appear in impossible locations.
Mentalism/Open predictions:
Thoughts are read from the minds of spectators or actions described before they take place.
My props include; playing cards, money, dice, rubik cubes, fire and ice.
What do you love most about your job?
The best part of the work for me is listening to the feedback from clients that I've worked with.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I have developed an online show as an option for clients that don't wish to be entertained in person.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
As the situation changes, approaches will change. For the moment, I am ensuring that equipment that is used or touched by spectators is sanitised after each event and in-between groups of performances at the same event if appropriate.
I also offer provide alternative effects if the desire is to completely remove any touching of props by the spectator as part of the performance.
I will also take a Rapid Lateral Flow Test prior to attending an event.
