I can’t thank grant enough for his time at my wedding last week. I felt bad as I was a typical stressed bride and missed most of his act but he made a special effort to show myself and the groom some magic and we’re still talking about it! We were frustrated trying to figure out how on earth it all worked but I guess Grant was right - it’s magic! Thank you again grant More...

We hired Grant for a corporate event in our office. He recommended his 'Mix and Mingle' service and the walkaround magic format was a perfect ice breaker for our guests. He got everyone talking, interacting and having fun. A week after our event and people are still telling me how much they enjoyed the magician! I would not hesitate to recommend Grant and hope to use him again in future! More...

Grant performed for our guests at our wedding last Saturday. Everyone commented on how brilliant he was - and what a great idea it was to have a magician entertain guests whilst we were away having our photos taken! What a lovely guy and despite timings at our venue getting slightly out of kilter - he adapted and managed to perform some tricks for us at our top table. His magic is MIND BLOWING. We are still talking about it now! NO idea how he did some of the things he did! I’ve been telling all my barber shop customers about him! Everyone’s faces are like “””wooooaaaaah?!?!”” If you book Grant for your event - you will not be disappointed. Thanks Grant. F & J . Xx More...

I booked Grant for my husbands 60th Birthday dinner through Bark.com. He was quick to respond and great at keeping in touch throughout. On the night, Grant arrived promptly and circulated through the groups, blowing everyone's mind with the various tricks, which were all discussed afterwards many times! I highly recommend Grant.

Perfect choice magician for a family event. Grant recently joined us to entertain our family and friends at The House for An Art Lover, Glasgow where we were celebrating Love & Life together. It was an intimate joyful occasion and Grant's style, personality and magic added to the joy. We were all blown away by his tricks, especially the children who then decided to continue to entertain us all with their versions long after he left. He was truly inspirational and lovely to have among us. More...

Grant Mitchell stepped in at fairly short notice to a corporate event we were holding for 60 of our customers. Grant did 2 hours of close up street magic around all of the tables and everyone was highly complimentary of everything he did.
We will definitely use him again.

We booked Grant for our wedding, originally due to be August 2020. He was so flexible when it came to postponing the wedding multiple times (due to COVID-19 restrictions). We eventually got our wedding in October 2021, and Grant really added to the drinks reception. Everyone commented about how amazing his magic was - both children and adults were amazed! He gave us (the Top Table) a special performance before we went in for our meal, and we were all so stunned by it! He is amazing! 100% recommend you book him for weddings and events! More...

Grant blew ours and our guests minds with every trick he did. Everyone has continued to talk about his mind reading and magic since our wedding, a great memory from a great day! From meeting Grant for a taster, right up until our big day, he was professional, easy to contact and communicate with. We will be making sure to recommend Grant to friends and family and hope to be able to have him at an event in the future. More...

Hi Grant just to say thanks again for your performances yesterday.Every one was amazed.!It was certainly magic!
How long have you been interested in magic?
My love for magic began at age 7, with a simple Fisher Price set. As I grew older, that fascination turned into a full-blown obsession. I'd scour TV guides for magic shows and count down the days until David Copperfield's next tour. My family and friends were my captive audience, and I'd dazzle them with increasingly complex tricks. Now, as President of the Edinburgh Magic Circle, you can trust me to deliver an unforgettable performance that will leave you spellbound.
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
My signature blend of classic and modern close-up magic, paired with Derren Brown-style mind reading, is guaranteed to captivate your guests and make your party unforgettable. It's a perfect icebreaker and a fantastic way to keep everyone entertained.
What do you love most about your job?
There's nothing quite like meeting new people and leaving a lasting impression through a moment of wonder. With a little bit of magic, this can turn into unforgettable memories that stay with them for years to come.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Magic started as a hobby, but quickly turned into something more. With family and friends eager to participate, I found myself in the spotlight, creating moments of wonder that were truly special. It's a privilege to be able to share this.

As the current President of the Edinburgh Magic Circle, I've earned the respect of my peers and a definitive mark of quality within the magic community. Rest assured, you're in good hands.
DEDICATED CLOSE-UP PERFORMER
Some magicians spread themselves thin by offering various forms of magic, from stage shows to children's parties. I am exclusively devoted to close-up magic. Whether it's an intimate 1-on-1 setting, small group or a crowded table, I work my magic and leave your guests dazzled.

Not only will I serve up magic at your event, but I'll also be your trusty advisor. Thanks to my year-long stint working at Walt Disney World in Florida, I've learned the art of exceptional customer service and creating magical memories. Want to know the kicker? I got the job after making a coin disappear during the interview. Let's work together.

If your event calls for more than one magician, I've got you covered. I have a trusted circle of talented magician friends that I work with regularly, and I would be thrilled to bring them on board and help coordinate their availability. And if I happen to be unavailable, I would be happy to recommend them to you.
