Graeme Shaw – UK Family Entertainer Of The Year.
I won the UK Family Entertainer of the Year comp!
So this weekend was the final of the UK Family Entertainer of the year. After six heats all over the UK and competing against dozens of children’s Magicians, I was lucky enough to win the Scottish heat last year and get myself into the final. This took place at the largest theatre in Europe, The Blackpool Winter Gardens Opera House during the worlds biggest magic convention with almost 5,000 magicians. The theatre holds up to 3,500 people. In addition to the members of the public in the theatre were many magicians.

The whole experience was on another level.
The stage and sheer size of the theatre were overwhelming.
I can honestly say it’s been one of the best experiences of my life, I have so many people to thank and I will personally message each and everyone who has supported me and given me good wishes. But special thanks to Danny Adams Dain Cordean Mark James Matthew Dowden Tony Junior for helping “hone” the act over the months.
The acts in the comp were all outstanding Dave and Jake, Tony Balony, Professor Dan, Paul Thomas, Ross Presto
Hard comp to call, I thought, as all were outstanding.
Thanks to Russ Stevens for being the first real magician I ever saw live when I was 11! And starting this whole journey.
Anna Shaw sorry I wasn’t at home for valentine’s day. Thanks for putting up with me!
