Hiring a hall for a children’s birthday party
Avoid big, echoey halls as they are terrible for a children’s birthday party. Especially if are having entertainment like a magician. Every sound bounces around the room; children shouting, laughing, music, and adults talking; creating a headache-inducing ball of noise. Even many jokes are missed as you cannot hear what is said. So therefore less laughs, less fun. Your guests will have their fingers in their ears.
Look for venues with a car park for yourself and your guests. Small village halls and church halls are great. Home parties are great too. For parties at home, I recommend inviting no more than 15 children. For halls, around 30 is a good number.
Avoid town center venues as they are tough for guests to park in.
Check that the venue has a kitchen and if you wish to serve alcohol to the grown-ups, check they don’t have a “no alcohol” policy.
Booking 30 minutes before and after the party is possible to set up/pack down, but an hour each side of the party times (especially before the party) is best for you. Book the hall for a two-hour party for four hours if you can. Ask a few friends/family to help with setting up/packing away to move chairs, etc. 2 hours is the ideal length for a children’s birthday party.
Book your entertainer such as Ritchie Rosson (me!), before you book the hall. There are loads of halls around but only one Ritchie! “Oh no, you are booked already? Can you cancel the other party?” Sorry, no!

Did you see Meghan on the Jamie Kern Lima podcast? It was quite a performance from them both. I had to make a parody video.

Chairs for magic show
It may sound odd, but the way you arrange the room with chairs for a magic/comedy show makes so much difference to the success of the show. There’s a reason that theatre’s have chairs fixed in that way as opposed to scattering them around the room.
Amazing, funny, children’s entertainer and magician; Ritchie Rosson for your children’s birthday party, school, or family event!

Soft Play For Birthday Parties
Soft play can be amazing fun for young children. Check online reviews to check soft play centres that have friendly, helpful staff, parking, and most importantly, great coffee.
I have entertained over the last 12 years at over 1,500 birthday parties and learned a lot along the way.
At a birthday party with an entertainer magician such as Ritchie Rosson (that’s me!) some parents have an idea that “we need something for the toddlers! Let’s hire some soft play.”) It’s a terrible idea. I had two of my birthday parties ruined by soft play being hired and it being thrown around the room and kids slamming each other into it.
Less is more! Because I want the children to have the most fun at my parties and my lovely clients to be super happy; as of Autumn 2023 I am no longer offering my entertainment at birthday parties with soft play.

Tips and tricks for children’s magicians
I have so much advice to give to magicians and entertainers for making your shows and events the best success and to get the most laughs and the least stress. I have a new YouTube magic channel where I am going to be uploading lots of videos packed full of wisdom/rantings.
Showreel video editing
I had great fun editing this video of the amazing magician David Croucher based in Worthing.
A showreel video will get you so much work! Sad that I see so many entertainers/magicians/circus performers with no showreel video for their clients to see or long videos of their entire acts which in the case of magicians like myself who do 30-60 minutes on stage, clients shopping around for entertainment will not sit through such a video and a live show never comes through with the impact it does live so better to pick out parts that are visual and fun in the video format which I have years of experience working with in my work on YouTube and in tv shows.
