Why have a magic show in Edinburgh?

Summer Treat | Halloween | Christmas | Easter | School Fundraiser


This is a 5-star magic show tailored to each age group. I always recommend splitting the age groups so no one is talked down to or anything too confusing happens for the wee ones.

Budget-Friendly Shows for Schools

Magic is for EVERYONE and what if you don't have the budget? Don't worry there is a show for you at ONLY £150. *


The Budget-Conscious School Show

This is a 5-star magic show tailored to each age group and is the same show you would get for the full price. So...


Why so cheap?

With the £150 show, which is available for all schools in Edinburgh, I bring in my camera and record the show. This is for future media purposes and promotional material. Of course, with this option, you will have to be ok with the filming or get the permission of the parents beforehand.


* This price is for Edinburgh only. Further afield will incur travel charges.

WHO ARE THE SCHOOL SHOWS FOR?

The MAGIC GARETH Primary School Magic Shows can presented for nurseries and pre-schools, early years, Key Stage 1&2 and children with ASN.


Magic Shows for Schools with Magic Gareth

The BIG School Magic Show

This is the current serving of amazing and fun magic tricks to wow every kid in the school!  It is 40 minutes of magical entertainment with Ediburgh’s 5-star magician, Magic Gareth. This show is tailored to each age group.

How does the School Magic Show work?

Magic Gareth can perform just one show or multiple shows throughout the school day.


Why a school magic show?

The BIG Magic Show can be performed for all school occasions - a school treat, Halloween, Christmas, Easter, Themed topics, and reading week, to name a few.


How long is the show?

Each show is 40 minutes long and requires a 20-minute reset between showings.


Age Group

I recommended splitting the age groups and key stages for Magic Gareth’s Shows. This ensures that no one is talked down to or confusing language is used.

In Edinburgh and the Surrounding areas, the magic can be as low as £150 per show with a reduced rate for multiple shows throughout the morning or afternoon.

School Fundraising with a Magic Show

A great reason for getting Magic Gareth is to raise money for your school! This can be an after-school PTA event. The kids come along to watch, they bring their adults to experience the fun too. The more the merrier and the more money you can raise! You can also sell refreshments to boost fundraising further.
