The Magic Circle

The Magic Circle is known to be the worlds most prestigious magic society. The club was formed in 1905 and is recognised by audiences globally as the most premier organisation for professional magicians. As a result, the club has members that perform on both the domestic and international stage. For example, members include everyone from Dynamo (UK), to the most famous magician of all time, David Copperfield (USA). Respect for The Magic Circle even extends to The Royal Family. The Prince of Wales joined the club in 1975 because of his love for the society. What’s more, HRH performed his version of the infamous magic trick, the cups and balls for a panel of judges.

It’s of no surprise that Fergus was utterly delighted to win The Magic Circle’s Virtual Magician Of The Year in 2022. The aforementioned is the highest level of international award for performance in Virtual Magic Shows.

Do The Magic Circle Magicians have to keep secrets?

The short answer is, yes. Magicians are a notoriously secretive bunch because they do not disclose their secrets very easily. What’s more, their Latin motto (Indocilis private loqui) translates as “not apt to disclose secrets”.

Despite the fact magicians do keep their secrets, they are not a secret society, and do not turn away those wishing to start a journey in the art of magic.  Besides The Magic Circle’s reputation for secrecy, it is an extremely welcoming place for new faces. This is illustrated by the fact the building is actually open to the public for walking tours, talks, and shows. Incidentally, a full list of the club’s rules can be found here.

We had Fergus perform two shows in the lead up to Christmas and they were an absolute hit with everyone! The show is super engaging, polished and absolutely mind-blowing. Working with Fergus before and after the shows was also a pleasure. He’s very professional, thoughtful and kind. An all round great experience!

Fergus performed to a packed room of 350+ M&A professionals ranging from aged 19 to 50+ and had the entire room absolutely gripped! The feedback was tremendous and he will go down as one of our all time best 'guest speakers'! Thank you and we look forward to having you back.

It is hard to put into words how grateful we are to Fergus for performing at our wedding. It is probably the 5th time we have seen him perform at either a private or corporate event. Each time his act varies and it’s like we see him for the first time again. He is a truly wonderful person and an absolutely incredible performer. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Fergus was our No 1 choice for our corporate global annual get together for 2020 via Zoom. When you come across a talent like this, he sets a benchmark that's grossly unattainable by others. Humble, astonishingly natural…A guy with a heart the size of the entire Magic Circle, he has EQ that's off the chart and a way about him that genuinely leaves you in awe.
