About Magic Yin

I am a professional magician based in Edinburgh, Scotland, specialising in engaging, entertaining close-up magic for weddings, private parties, corporate events, celebrations and special occasions.

With a friendly and charismatic performance style, I am able to bring unforgettable moments of magic directly to guests, creating genuine reactions, laughter and memorable experiences. Whether entertaining small groups or mingling with guests at a larger event, the focus is on interactive magic that people can experience up close.

Unforgettable Magic for Every Occasion.

Our Story

My journey into magic began with a genuine fascination for the impossible — the kind of moments that make you stop, wonder, and ask yourself, “How did that happen?”

Over time, that fascination developed into a passion for performing and sharing magic with other people. I discovered that what I enjoy most isn't simply performing a trick, but seeing the reaction it creates — the surprise, laughter and sense of wonder when someone experiences something they can't quite explain.

Today, as Magic Yin, I bring that passion to weddings, private parties, corporate events and special occasions throughout Edinburgh and beyond. My style is personal, interactive and designed to make people feel part of the experience rather than simply watching from the sidelines.

For me, great magic is about more than tricks. It's about creating moments that people remember, talk about and share long after the performance is over.

My goal is simple: to make your event unforgettable, one magical moment at a time.

Experience

I have been fascinated by magic since I was 15 years old, beginning my journey as a young enthusiast and gradually developing my skills through years of learning, practising and performing.

Over the past 25 years, I have pursued magic on and off alongside my other professional interests and commitments. This has given me the opportunity to continually develop my performance style, learn new techniques and, most importantly, understand what makes magic genuinely entertaining for an audience.

Today, I bring that experience together as Magic Yin, with a focus on creating engaging, interactive and memorable experiences for guests at weddings, private parties, corporate events and special occasions.

After more than two decades of being involved with magic, my passion for the art remains as strong as ever — and I love nothing more than sharing that sense of wonder with an audience.

Typical Clients

My typical clients are couples planning their wedding and businesses looking to add something memorable and engaging to a corporate event. I also perform at private parties, celebrations, dinners, family events and a variety of other special occasions.

My magic is suitable for a wide range of audiences, from children aged 5 and above to adults, making it a versatile form of entertainment for events where guests can interact, participate and enjoy the magic up close.

Whether you're planning an elegant wedding, a corporate gathering or simply want to add something special to a celebration, I aim to create memorable moments that guests will be talking about long after the event.

Credentials

With around 25 years of practical experience in magic, I have developed my skills through years of learning, practising and performing for audiences in a wide variety of settings.

I have also attended events connected with the Magic Circle, gaining exposure to the wider magic community and the art of professional performance.

One of the highlights of my experience has been performing magic for well-known public figures, including celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, Olympic cycling champion Sir Chris Hoy, and renowned television presenter Matthew Kelly.

These experiences have helped me develop the confidence, professionalism and ability to engage with a diverse range of audiences — from intimate gatherings to high-profile events.

Today, I bring that experience to every performance, with a focus on creating polished, interactive and memorable magic for my clients and their guests.

Wonderful performance, just what we wanted

A rocky start as GPS failed and although in time to start as scheduled it gave us initial worries. Totally unfounded, straight in to his performance like a professional, entertained each table possibly twice in the time we agreed. The guests loved his personality and his magic, it was a surprise for everyone and it worked, will be talked about for some time. Terms were as agreed and was very acceptable. Yin was the cherry on the top of a great celebration.

Yin - what a star!!

We had a post-elopement party in a bar in Edinburgh with around 90 guests. The plan was for Yin to mingle and entertain people with some card tricks, in the event there were any awkward silences. Little did we know Yin was going to be such a hit! People absolutely loved him and his amazing card tricks. Yin's natural enthusiasm for magic and entertaining people shone through and he was without doubt the star of the show. Our only regret is that we didn't book him for longer, as people definitely wanted to see more! A great guy, great tricks and a really fun element to add to any party. We would 100% recommend Yin and we have a lovely souvenir card from one of his tricks to frame and celebrate the occasion. THANKS YIN!
