Magician Pete Heat

UK magician and comedian Pete Heat brings modern close-up magic to weddings and drinks receptions.

Pete Heat is a UK-based magician, comedian and television performer. His magic is modern and funny, mixing close-up sleight of hand with stand-up and a surreal sense of humour, with none of the top hats or mystical airs of traditional magic. Weddings are a regular part of his work.

Why he suits LGBTQ+ couples

Pete is a good choice if you want entertainment that feels contemporary rather than old-fashioned. He tailors each performance to the event, and his close-up style gets guests laughing and talking, which is a real help when two families and friendship groups are meeting for the first time.

What he offers

  • Close-up magic, performed as he moves among your guests
  • A short show for everyone at once, where it suits the day
  • Entertainment for drinks receptions, room turnarounds, the wedding breakfast and the evening party
  • Performances at destination weddings

How he works

You get in touch with your date, venue, guest numbers and the kind of atmosphere you want. Pete then suggests how best to fit his magic into your day, whether that is filling the gap while photographs are taken or keeping tables entertained between courses. His background includes television series such as Around The World In 80 Tricks, consultancy for film and theatre, and several solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe, so he is comfortable with any size of crowd.

Where he covers

Pete is based in the UK and performs at weddings in London and around the country. He also travels for destination weddings and events abroad.
