Magician Canary Wharf

About Magician Canary Wharf

Canary Wharf’s mix of finance, law and media offices makes it one of the busiest corporate event calendars in London – client entertainment evenings, office parties, product launches and after-work celebrations, often in the same glass-tower venues that define the skyline, or just a short hop away at ExCeL London in the Docklands. Close-up magic works especially well here: it’s fast, interactive, and gives even the busiest guests a genuine break from their phones.

Pete performs table-to-table or working the room during drinks, adapting the material to suit a corporate crowd – clean, sharp and genuinely baffling, without ever feeling like a distraction from the event itself. Well connected by rail from Orpington, getting to Canary Wharf venues is never a scheduling problem.

Why Canary Wharf Businesses Book Pete

• Experience with office parties, client events and product launches
• Quick, easy access to Canary Wharf venues by rail
• Fully insured, with risk assessments available for building management

Getting Into a Canary Wharf Building

The practical detail that matters more here than almost anywhere: Canary Wharf towers run proper security desks, ID checks and sign-in procedures, and a supplier who turns up unprepared becomes the event organiser’s problem. Pete arrives early enough to clear security without anyone chasing him, and can provide public liability insurance certificates and risk assessments in advance for building management.

There is also nothing to load in. No staging, no sound system, no power and no equipment – everything needed fits in a jacket pocket, so there is no goods lift to book and nothing for building management to approve beyond the person.

Where It Fits

Drinks receptions are where this earns its keep: people default to talking to the colleagues they already know, and a magician moving between groups gives strangers a reason to start a conversation. At a seated dinner or awards evening, Pete works table to table between courses without competing with the speeches. For product launches and exhibition stands, close-up magic acts as a crowd-draw – it gives people a reason to stop and stay long enough for your team to talk to them.

Thames boat parties leave from Canary Wharf Pier too, and Pete works those regularly – see the boat party magician page.

What Affects the Cost

• How long you need, and whether it is drinks only or drinks through dinner.
• Guest numbers. Past roughly 150 it is worth discussing a longer booking or a second performer.
• The date. December is the busiest month in the corporate calendar by a distance.

No travel charge for Canary Wharf or anywhere else in London.
