Just 4 weeks to go for the Midlands Magic day with only 3 weeks to pick up your discount advance tickets and gold pass.

Things look proissing for the event with many dealers and tickets sold already. We would advise booking in advnace to avoid disapointment.

Matthew Garrett has just joined the line up of dealers at the Midlands Magic Day.

This is the last week for advanced discount ticket bookings if anyone wishes to book http://www.magicday.co.uk/club. But you are still able to purchase on the day for the dealers area and lectures.

See you all there

Matthew gives a great lecture (so do most of the others too)

Really looking forward to this day! If you're planning to come down, I'll be selling my PDF's at *very* discounted prices, and will be offering free tarot/palm readings as well!

How much is it on the day? If i just wanted to browse the dealers as opposed go to the lectures how much would that be?

Apologies I have just re read the thread and answered my own question by simply reading every post!!

If you weren’t there, you missed a great day!

No idea of attendance numbers but the Dealer Hall had a good circulation of interested customers, hopefully all spending their hard earned cash. The lectures were excellent, David Jones had the honour of being first ‘on stage’ at 10am and his tips and advice were well worth knowing. Subtleties and bits of knowledge garnered over many years of performing meant we all learned something new.

Paul Gordon presented a very enjoyable lecture, again peppered with wry observations and tips which made every effect far more magical than just a routine, the 1.1/2 hours (plus a few extra minutes!) just seemed to fly by.

Michael Vincent trod a different path, instead of the traditional show and tell lecture, he offered his new ‘The Craft of Magic’ event which was a two way process, the audience sharing thoughts and ideas as well as receiving them. Michael performed several card miracles and it’s easy to see why he’s such a top man in magic.

Marc Oberon presented the final lecture of the day and covered many of his well loved routines and effects with plenty of emphasis on multiple outs which didn’t seem like outs – star quality stuff indeed. I didn’t get chance to count the numbers attending but, at a guess, I’d say at least 50 for each lecture, possibly more.

Ollie Mealing also presented several workshops out in the Dealer Room.

Among the Dealers it was good to see TMers Paul Voodini and Magic Tao doing their bit to part us from our cash along with another 20 dealers plus, of course, the organisers Warped Magic. One excellent feature was a raffle in aid of the Acorns charity with prizes donated by the various Dealers – I’m very glad to report that I won one of the prizes!
All in all, a most excellent first Midlands Magic Day and certainly a compelling reason for there to be another one ...... over to you guys !!

Just to echo what Mandrake has already said, a thoroughly enjoyable day. Great to meet Mandrake himself once again and see some old friends including Mr. P. Brook.

Following the Midlands Magic day, I then had to drive 90 minutes to present a Q&A show in Ellesmere Port before driving for a further 90 minutes to get home. Quite a long day, but very enjoyable.

Hello All

Thanks for the great feedback so far. We welcome any that is good or bad as its the only way we can improve on potential furture events.

It was a long day for us but all seemed worth it in the end. We had lots of fantastic prizes donated by the dealers which all went down well with the visitors winning them on the Acorns Charity Raffle. We will release final figures raised as soon as we can.

A big thank you goes out to everyone that attended inc visitors, dealers and lecturers you all helped to make it a fantastic day for everyone.

Thanks
Matthew & Ginny

Bumpety bump!

Any thoughts on having a Midlands Magic Day 2012?
