Looking back at the last six months of 2025, we’re not quite sure how it all fitted in. It’s been busy, chaotic at times, and full of moments that remind us why we love what we do.
We started by trying to be sensible for once. After a full on start to the year, we spent a few weeks playing squash and getting ourselves back into some kind of routine before heading back on the road. It was short lived, because not long after, we were travelling again and pretty much living out of suitcases for a month.
Summer holidays meant touring our Imagination show around England, Scotland, and Wales. Long drives, early mornings, late finishes, and doing it all again the next day became normal very quickly. The audiences made it worth it though. There’s something special about summer crowds, especially when kids and families are fully up for it from the moment the show starts.
One of the big highlights was performing at the Bristol Balloon Fiesta with Party Peeps. The scale of it, the atmosphere, the balloons, and the crowds all together was pretty unreal, and definitely one of those pinch yourself moments.
Then things got even more exciting. We headed off to Greece and Turkey to perform on a cruise ship, which still feels strange to say out loud. Performing shows while waking up in a different country every few days is something we’ll never take for granted. As soon as that finished, we jumped straight onto another cruise and spent time performing our way around the Mediterranean. It was busy, but also ridiculously beautiful.
Back on dry land, we squeezed in loads of close up magic at corporate events, festivals, and weddings. These gigs are always a favourite of ours. Being right in the middle of people, chatting, laughing, and completely surprising them up close never gets old.
One of the most meaningful things we did this year was organise a charity night to raise money for Paisley, a child battling neuroblastoma. The support on the night was incredible, and thanks to everyone who came along and donated, we raised £2,000 to help fund her treatment. That night reminded us that what we do can be about more than entertainment, and that felt really special.
We finished the year exactly how we like to, with a run of Christmas parties and award ceremonies. The last few weeks were non stop, performing our show for companies celebrating the end of the year, but it felt like the perfect way to wrap up such a huge year.
When we actually sit back and think about it all, the last six months of 2025 have been exhausting, exciting, and so rewarding. From squash courts to motorways, festival fields to cruise ships, charity nights to Christmas parties, it’s been a mad journey and we’re so grateful to be on it.
Bring on next year!!
