Jay Gatling

Description

Magician, wizard, and possible Time Lord. I’m all these things, but first & foremost I’m an entertainer! One whose goal is to bring smiles, laughter & moments of wonder to your guests. Whether I’m speed solving a Rubik’s cube blindfolded, passing solid objects through each other, or casually reading a mind. I’m out to entertain, astound & build on the positive memories of your event.
“Amazing magician, very talented, funny and a genuinely nice guy. Thanks for
entertaining us tonight. Absolutely mind blown.” – Steve Boswell, The Mobile Party
Since 2008 I have had the ho ... nour of sharing magic with audiences at a large variety of events across the UK. These include weddings, milestone birthdays, corporate celebrations, a brief flirtation with television, and so much more.
I have been lucky enough to win awards such as Best Non-Musical Wedding Entertainment in North Wales by the Welsh National Wedding Awards, and in the world of magic the Dittia Shield for sleight of hand and the Theo Speaker Cup for stage magic as awarded by the International Brotherhood of Magicians. Wow, that’s a lot of long words that sound cool isn’t it.
“Entertaining, thrilling and thoroughly enjoyable. I would highly recommend Jay . . . for a
superb night’s entertainment.” – Dave Paveley, North Wales Honda
In the end, I'm passionate about making people laugh, smile and have a good time at whatever event they may be attending. I'll do that by sharing with them my love of magic and entertainment, helping to make memories and bring a little positivity into the world. Remember nothing is impossible, just a bit unlikely
“Jay performed at our wedding…and everyone absolutely loved him! ...Would highly
recommend Jay for any event you might hold; lovely guy and extremely professional.” –
Mykalea Robins-Bruce, Bride
