Booked Rod for my 50th birthday party as I wanted someone to bring groups of different guests together with a talking point. He was absolutely amazing and blew everyone’s mind with his magic, even now weeks later everyone is still taking about it! With people asking for his details! Couldn’t be any happier with his service from the day of booking to the end of the evening absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much ☺️ would highly recommend Rod. More...

We recently booked Rod for our daughters wedding and I must say it was the best thing we could have done.Not only is Rods magic simply incredible, but Rod has such a wonderful personality and makes you feel really at ease. Rod was the talking point of our guests not only during the day but into and beyond breakfast the next morning.People say one magician is much like another, but I can assure you that is not true.Rod will simply mesmerise your guests and the special personal performance he gave for my daughter and her husband was something really amazing.Many of the wedding guests commented " Rod is the best magician they have ever seen" More...

"We hired Rod Williams for an 80th birthday party, and he was absolutely fantastic! His magic was incredible—completely unfathomable and left everyone in awe. His jokes and act were spot-on, keeping the atmosphere light and fun. He managed to entertain a diverse group, ranging from age 10 to 80, with ease and charm. A truly professional performer who added so much to the celebration. Highly recommend!" More...

Steve
Magician
Booking Rod was a very easy process, he discussed our requirements and he kept us informed of his arrival time on the day.
We were a family party with an age range of 6 to 87 and Rod did close up magic at individual tables which had us all mesmerised, most of it under the scrutiny of the teenage mobile phone. Rod did a show which also had us all mesmerised and he allowed a very excited 6 year old to help him with a trick, he was also brave enough to use two very excitable 6 & 8 year boys to help him with his magic. Rod’s entertainment helped us have a very memorable evening and we would certainly ask him to perform again.

Susan
From my initial contact with Rod to the end of his Magic Show, Rod showed complete professionalism.
I wanted something ‘a bit different ‘ to entertain my guests at my 70th Birthday Celebration in November.
Rob was recommended by a family member !
I was not disappointed !!!
He was amazing. For almost an hour there were gasps , applauds , silence as he performed the most incredible magic tricks right in front of our eyes .
Using family and friends as ‘ helpers’ to aid him in some of his tricks was brilliant.
I cannot thank Rod enough for making my celebration so memorable for all the right reasons . Everyone who came to my celebration is still talking about him. That must be a recommendation in itself !!
Thank you Rod for making my Birthday Celebration one to remember, forever.
If you need a Magician to help you celebrate an event … look no further…
Rod the Magician is the one !

Rod attended an 80th Birthday party & dinner at a private restaurant, where we had 30 guests.
Rod circulated through the guests during the pre-dinner drinks period as our guests arrived with impressive displays of his magic, which really set the relaxed tone for the evening.
After the dinner & speeches, Rod provided a very entertaining magic show for around 1 hour & he soon won over his audience with his amazing tricks.
Rod really added to the enjoyment of the party with his relaxed performance, which was very much appreciated by everyone.
We will definitely use Rod again for our next major family celebration.

Georgina McCann
Rod was such a spectacular part of our wedding, he far surpassed anything we’d imagined, we were blown away by some mind boggling magic that actually meant so much to us! His trick about a celebrity ended up being a singer we love and happened to have throughout our wedding playlist! It was crazy! Would recommend him to everyone, as all our guests loved him as well and still speak to us about the magic tricks he did for them - such a memorable addition to our day! Thank you so much Rod!

He blew everyone’s minds with his magic and still days later people are still trying to figure out how he does what he does, it really is out of this world magic! I would recommend Rod to anyone and everyone, he’s such a nice guy and genuinely adds a magical touch to your day. He kept all our guests entertained during the drinks reception and they loved it!

Phil Young
Wow!!!
I searched the internet for a Magician for my Golf Club Captain’s Charity event, and by chance found Rod, and booked him without knowing too much about him.
He magically entertained the players with his skills. What he did was impossible, but he did it. How, I don’t know.
All I would say is, book him for your event.
Thank you Rod.

Rod entertained us after a fund raising Sunday lunch. 'How did he do that's was the constant question. Different magic illusion and 'mind reading' he did it all.
Would not hesitate to recommend him.
Thanks Rod for making a great lunch

Rod kindly did a show for a family get-together at which the ages ranged from 3 to 75 and he was absolutely brilliant, both when he was playing to the whole audience and when he was astonishing small groups. We are still discussing how he did some of the amazing tricks. I would not hesitate to recommend him. More...

ROD joined us on time, an mingled with Guests during the Welcome Drinks. He then circulated round the 5 Tables, Amusing AND Amazing everyone (Lots of applause, too)
He kept going whilst not interrupting their Meals, and the didi a further round, also taking in Late-Comers to our Joint Birthday Party
He provided excellent value for the whole time he was with us, and there were lots of appreciative thanks to him, and to us, from Friends & Family
A great time was had by all, and people could not believe how he did the Tricks, and he never failed to impress !

Cara & Richard
We met Rod at a Christmas party and he was absolutely amazing that we knew that we needed to book him for our wedding. He did not disappoint. We didn't tell our guests he was coming and he just worked the room and really impressed the guests. They are still talking about him now. It's a great talking point and lovely for your guests to be so impressed. He even gave us a private show which was lovely for it to be the two of us. Then of course we had to drag rod onto the photobooth. Thank you again and I'm sure some of our guests will now be booking you for their events. More...

Lottie Heryet
I cannot put into words HOW AMAZING Rod is as a person and a magician/entertainer. He attended our wedding in January and was a massive highlight for myself and my husband. If we didn't have guests to mingle with, we would have followed him around all evening. He did a special set of magic for us that left us in awe, as well as going around all of the guests. We asked Rod to entertain as guests were waiting for meals/ in between courses and you could just hear "Wow" and cheering across the room as he went to each table. The wedding was about 6 weeks ago and we are still talking about it. We have had masses of feedback from guests about him being a huge highlight of the day. I cannot recommend Rod enough. If I ever have an occasion which could benefit from entertainment, he would be my first call. Please please please book Rod and you will not regret it! More...

Andy Robinson
Magician
We were looking for a magician & someone that could bring a personal style of entertainment to our dear friend Angela's 70th birthday party for around 60 people.
Rod was absolutely perfect from the initial contact right to him saying goodbye after he'd done his magic at the party.
He made sure everybody was included, visiting all the tables of guests.
Every single person was amazed at the magic Rod performed under their very noses, leaving them with comments such as 'how did that just happen'.
We will definitely be calling Rod again & can not recommend him enough.

Rod was a fantastic addition to our wedding celebrations. with huge variety of slight of hand and perfomance magic, he went above and beyond amazing and entertaining our guests form the end of the breakfast through to the evening celebrations and was certainly a talking point amongst all our guests. We would highly recommend.
Zoe & Arron
Rod… thank you so unbelievably much for making our wedding day unbelievable. You really did go above and beyond for us and everyone there and we are so grateful to you. Everyone absolutely loved everything you did and we are all still baffled at how you did everything you did! It really did make everyone’s day, nothing was too much for you and you made sure you kept everyone entertained and went to anyone who asked you to do a trick also. Every single thing you did was insane, we are still struggling to get our heads round how on earth you do what you do ( we think you maybe stole Bernard’s watch and stopped time maybe 🤣🤣) it’s just absolutely crazy and everyone loved it. So so grateful to you and I’m sure we will see you soon at another family event. Thanks so much again. Mr and Mrs Hargreaves 💕 More...
