About Ian McCoy

"AN engaging, brilliant, charming, top notch performer
Magic and mind reading - three hours of gasps 'no way', 'do it again', 'how did that happen'.
An easy going, approachable superstar." (Gary Hilton )

As a magician and mentalist with a world wide reputation I can provide world class magic and mindreading guaranteed to entertain, amuse and completely baffle. I am the only British magician/mentalist to perform for a sitting US President (Clinton) and do a 2 hour show with the late great Robin Williams. I worked in the USA throughout the 90's and early noughties for corporations, Hollywood celebrities, Las Vegas Hotels, major sporting events private parties and on TV. Recently I appeared on a TV show which airs worldwide where host George Galloway called me the best in the business...the Pavarotti of magic !

I have incredible routines geared to all age groups and although I perform world class sleight of hand - I am regarded as one of the finest exponents of mentalism and mindreading which is executed in a fun filled manner I I can perform my world class routines in a close up mingling situation but also offer a stand up show for groups from 20 to 1000. It was late Robin Williams who described my magic and mentalism as "world class". Simply the best in the UK. and one of the best in the world.

Typical Clients

All types of private parties - birthdays, anniversaries and weddings. Ian will provide either incredible close up magic and mindreading or a stand up/stage performance. If requested he can provide both. He is also a specialist corporate entertainer who as well as providing his services in the traditional manner is also an expert in delivering companies message and sales pitch at trade shows and other corporate events.

A really good addition to our event.

Ian was very user friendly. He really worked the "room" with his close up magic and was a great addition to our Coronation Big Lunch in the Park. The weather meant that he could roam around the event spending time with groups of picnickers, entertaining them and attracting attention from neighbouring groups which really encouraged people to make new friends and chat to people they didn't already know. Perfect community ice-breaker. Thanks Ian.

A Memorable Anniversary lunch.

Had arranged a 50th Anniversary lunch for close family and wanted some distraction. We were 10 with ages from 12 to 72 and Ian entertained us all from start to finish with his lovely manner. Ian's magic skills confounded no matter how close we watched. In addition his mind reading was truly spooky. Thank you Ian for giving us such a memorable and enjoyable event.
