Close up and walk around magic, sometimes referred to as 'Table Hopping' is fast becoming the 'it' entertainment at product launches, promotions, corporate dinners, receptions, private parties and in restaurants. As the performer mingles with the guests and the magic is performed for small groups of people seated at tables or standing in groups, it has to be the most versatile of entertainments.  

This is a highly personal type of entertainment in which the audience is totally involved and where the concept of performer and spectator is discarded for a more universal experience enjoyed by both magician and onlooker together.

Pat Fallon is widely experienced in this area, in fact he is a pioneer of this type of magical entertainment in Ireland. He has performed in numerous restaurants and hotels in the Dublin area. These include very long residencies in the Bon Cher restaurant in Malahide, the Royal Marine Hotel in Dun Laoghaire, Johnnie Fox's Pub/Restaurant Glencullen and also at a large number of corporate events both here and in Britain.

He has been awarded the International Brotherhood of Magicians Shield and the Setanta Trophy for Micro Magic, both of these were awarded for his excellence in this particular type of magical entertainment. In 2000 Pat was invited to join the Inner Magic Circle in London. In November 2003 he became an Inner Magic Circle Member with Gold Star, this is a great honour, which reflects the respect, this performer has from other prominent members of his craft. There are in fact only 300 gold star members worldwide, these include the likes of Paul Daniels and David Copperfield. Pat is the first resident Irish Magician to be awarded this honour as it was given "in recognition of his outstanding performing ability as a professional magician".
