West End weddings and converted churches
Òran Mór, a converted church at the top of Byres Road, is one of the city's best-loved wedding venues, and couples sometimes marry nearby before heading there for the reception. Further down the hill, Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum hosts evening weddings and banquets beneath its famous centre hall.
Both are busy, sociable spaces. Close-up magic during the drinks reception is a cracking icebreaker for the two families, and a short visit to each table during the meal keeps the energy up between courses. In a big space like Kelvingrove, a roaming magician makes sure guests at the far tables aren't left out.
Christmas nights out and work parties
Glasgow takes its Christmas nights out seriously. From late November, hotels and function rooms across the city fill up with office parties, and a magician working the tables during the meal gives your lot something different from the usual.
For a smaller team in a restaurant private room, an hour of close-up magic before the food is usually plenty. For a big company night, think about a short stand-up set with lots of volunteers from the floor. The more of your colleagues end up on their feet, the better it goes.
Merchant City and city-centre receptions
In the Merchant City, the Trades Hall of Glasgow on Glassford Street, designed by Robert Adam, hosts weddings and corporate presentations in its Grand Hall. Next to Central Station, the Grand Central Hotel has a ballroom used for weddings and gala dinners.
For corporate nights in the city centre, a mix works well: close-up magic as people arrive, then a short stand-up set with plenty of audience involvement once everyone is seated. Glasgow crowds enjoy being part of the act, so interactive comedy magic tends to go down particularly well.
Travel and timing in Glasgow
Glasgow city centre has a Low Emission Zone, and on-street parking in the West End can be tight, with venues like Òran Mór having no car park of their own. Tell us about any parking arrangements so your magician can plan ahead.
Scottish weddings often run long, with a ceilidh taking over the evening. Plan the magic for the reception and the meal rather than after the band starts, when guests will be on the dance floor.
Edinburgh, Stirling and the Ayrshire coast are all in reach too, if your venue's outside the city. Just tell us where it is and we'll sort the travel.
