My warmest recommendations to you, Morten. You're always a little sceptical when booking entertainment online, but I must say my scepticism disappeared when I spoke with Morten on the phone in the days leading up. He was so kind, welcoming and refreshing to talk to, and I quickly felt completely at ease. Everything only got better when we met him in person. He's so lovely and funny from the very first moment. He welcomed all our guests so warmly. He captured the attention of the very youngest children and also captivated the rest of us with his quick humour, funny and spirited comments and warm heart. Everyone in the party was absolutely wild about him. He knows his craft – and so much more. From 5 to 74 years old, everyone was completely spellbound and captivated. Many of the guests have mentioned him again and again since. So a full house of stars from us.

about Morten
Below you'll find reviews from clients who have experienced Morten's show – at corporate events, Christmas parties, weddings, confirmations and much more.
Great fun, captured the audience from the first trick, highly recommended :)
(translated)Morten Deurell had promised stand-up magic, and that's exactly what we got – big time! The audience was thoroughly entertained throughout by an impressively skilled magician. He delivered his magic with complete mastery, accompanied by irresistible humour. He was full of surprises that also actively involved the audience, so we were repeatedly caught off guard and had to surrender to laughter. It was a half-hour-plus full of fascination and great laughs. Morten Deurell is an artist who deserves my warmest recommendation.
(translated)Morten performed at my 40th birthday. He delivered a super great show! He fits in really well at a party :)
(translated)Morten came and delivered a fun and very professional magic show for our confirmand. Morten was also great at including the confirmand so he also got attention. All guests were very enthusiastic. Our warmest recommendations.
(translated)Thank you to Morten for wonderful and entertaining magic at our son's confirmation. With great energy and witty asides, Morten got the guests going and sparked their interest in the art of magic. And involving a few guests in various tricks created many laughs and big rounds of applause. So once again thank you to Morten for one of the day's highlights! A warm recommendation from us.
(translated)Perfect act for a confirmation :)
(translated)Thank you to Morten for kick-starting our party – young and old alike praised and amused themselves over the magic tricks and were relieved on Bente's behalf when she got her watch back 😀
(translated)We had hired Morten to provide entertainment for our corporate party and he certainly did not disappoint! A massive recommendation from us.
(translated)In connection with a corporate party and team building, we chose to hire Morten and his Close-up Magic as an act after dinner. Morten is not just a skilled magician; his personality and humour created a magical atmosphere that enchanted the entire audience. It was a huge success with my entire team – and not least myself!
(translated)Absolutely supreme party entertainment! You know it just works when an energetic man runs around drawing powerful bursts of laughter and enormous astonishment from the audience! I booked Morten for close-up magic entertainment at the tables for my 50th birthday, and it was a tremendous success. In addition to delivering magic tricks that make people both laugh and cry (because they simply can't work them out), Morten has that extra entertainment gene that also gives the whole affair an element of delightfully disarming comedy – he is incredibly likeable and very quickly becomes part of the party. Morten is super sharp at reading the room and very quickly figures out how to hit people in exactly the right way and give them some truly special and memorable experiences. A massive recommendation from here – it is definitely not the last time I have booked him for an event!
(translated)We had the pleasure of Morten's close-up magic at Immeo's summer party! He created a really great atmosphere during dinner, where his tricks had everyone both laughing and marvelling. The guests loved his magical act. Highly recommended!
(translated)It was magical to experience Morten Deurell at our son's confirmation. It was a small, intimate gathering of just 19 people aged 5–78 and EVERYONE found it exciting and fun. The magic comes right up close, and you marvel again and again.
(translated)Thank you for a really great experience at Victor's confirmation. It was fun and impressive. Those of us sitting just 1–1.5 metres from you, or others just 20 cm away, couldn't figure out your tricks no matter how hard we tried to watch 🤗💪🤹♀️
(translated)Festive, fun and engaging. Much laughter and wonder from both adults and giggling children. Morten gave the confirmation party a real boost. He is extremely charming and empathetic. Would absolutely recommend him and his magic.
(translated)Absolutely fantastic show. Enjoyed by both young and old, and right at the confirmand's level. Fun and entertaining, as well as warm and present.
(translated)We had booked Morten for a 50th birthday and it was a super great experience, Morten is really skilled and can only be recommended. Many thanks 😊
(translated)Morten manages to include both children and the elderly in the show. Fun and engaging tricks that triggered laughter and wonder. A tremendous experience!
(translated)Morten Deurell put on a fantastic half-hour show at our son's confirmation. It was stand-up magic up close, and a great experience. Morten is super skilled and absolutely fantastic at getting the audience involved and making the experience personal. Highly recommended :-)
(translated)Fantastic show, where Morten immersed himself in the party and made it a success!
(translated)Super fun and a great experience to get the atmosphere going at the wedding.
(translated)Super fun.
(translated)Thoroughly entertaining and funny show :) A blend of magic and stand-up :) At our party there was certainly both loud laughter and deep silence, because you couldn't understand how he pulled off various wild tricks!! A massive recommendation from here and worth every penny :)
(translated)Super great and fun entertainment at eye level across generations at the family party.
(translated)A thousand thanks, Morten, for helping to make our son's confirmation even better, funnier and more festive. You are very present and have a superb feel for those you are performing for. Your act was fun, magical and perfectly timed so everyone was fully focused throughout the ENTIRE act. PERFECT experience – a thousand thanks once more from Christian, Alexander, Rikke and Jens.
(translated)Morten Deurell performed for approx. 70 of our pupils and staff – he was lightning-fast at 'reading' our pupil group and could calibrate his performance accordingly. Very impressive. We will definitely be hiring Morten again another time.
(translated)A wonderful experience with a magician – and a skilled one at that... With a good dose of humour added in. Also great service when we had to reschedule the confirmation due to Covid.
(translated)Really great entertainment for a corporate party.
(translated)Fantastically skilled magician. Super great and fun entertainment 😀
(translated)Skilled technician and communicator.
(translated)Morten can really surprise you. He removed my watch from my wrist without me noticing, until he asked me what the time was. I collapsed in laughter.
(translated)Morten has been great fun for guests at our receptions and parties on several occasions – I warmly recommend Morten.
(translated)"Morten was fantastic at entertaining my guests at my 30th birthday. The party was held in a tent in the garden, and Morten was super professional from start to finish – particularly at figuring out where to perform to give all guests the most optimal entertainment experience. One thing is that Morten is extremely skilled at magic and makes many audience members' jaws drop, but another thing is that he blends his fantastic comedy into the magic. That just made it an extra special magic show. The guests were in stitches, and his performance has been talked about several times since. Whether it was the core audience in their 30s and 40s, or my 70-year-old mother-in-law. Because we just had such a great time with Morten, and we also created loads of memories as he interacted with the audience – whether that was involving them actively in the magic or delivering brilliant and funny comments that had us all laughing loudly. Yes, he was really quick at reading the audience's humour and mood! All in all I would definitely recommend Morten as entertainment, whether it's a 30th or a 70th birthday – he made everyone drop their jaws and laugh. I as the host and the guests were absolutely WILD about him."
(translated)"Modern and cool show. Stand-up and magic at the same time – it's perfect. Groundbreaking. It wasn't like an old-fashioned form of magic. We all had a great experience. Super show!"
(translated)"Morten performed at our Christmas party at the Danish Road Directorate, Vejcenter Hovedstaden. It was really funny and super entertainment, and he got the party going even more. Morten is highly recommended and it is certainly not the last time we will experience him. Fantastic!"
(translated)"A huge thank you for your entertainment, Morten. The laughter, the wonder, the presence and the variety have been absolutely top notch – both this time and the previous time we enjoyed your show. People kept talking about how you did it."
(translated)"Thank you for a very entertaining and not least engaging performance. Your skills as a magician are great – combined with a superb way of approaching people, it was a complete success."
(translated)"Thank you for your entertainment at our Christmas party on 14 December. You hit the mood exactly right and there was both a lot of laughter and much pondering over your tricks. You managed to bring the group together and we have only received positive feedback since! You have our highest recommendation."
(translated)"There has been really positive feedback about you, which is great. Especially those sitting on the 2nd floor were absolutely delighted and thought you were super. So we thank you."
(translated)"Thank you for a fun and cheerful atmosphere at our Christmas party. Impressive how you handled a loud group of 45 people! Your performance was incredibly elegant, professional and very engaging. Even the few sceptics in the group were impressed. You are someone we would love to experience again!"
(translated)"A thousand thanks for your performance on Thursday evening at Skt. Petri. Everyone was very enthusiastic about your performance."
(translated)"Thank you for your act at our Christmas party. It was a true pleasure that you fooled us time and again. Not least when the party sceptic also got thoroughly stumped. You are in my thoughts when I next need entertainment for the staff or management group."
(translated)"It was entertainment on a level beyond the ordinary when we had a visit from magician Morten Deurell. We first thought it was a trick… But it was real magic. Fun, pleasant and definitely worth recommending."

(translated)"Thank you for good and exciting magic entertainment at our corporate reception. We and our guests had confirmed the idea that this type of entertainment creates a fun and relaxed atmosphere and gets the conversation going across tables. Your professional yet charming performance is clearly something we would recommend to others at similar events."
(translated)"It was a great success when you entertained at a number of our client meetings. You hit the mood exactly right and varied your act for each event, and in a charming way you gave us and our clients a really great experience. Definitely worth recommending and something we will use on other occasions. Many thanks for the magical moments."
(translated)"Thank you for your performance. It was a fun and magical experience of the rare kind – and we all enjoyed you. My son actually came over to me later in the evening and said thank you for a lovely experience. It really hit him in just the right way…"
(translated)"Hi Morten. Thank you for an extra magical atmosphere on our big day. It was both fun and imaginative in exactly the right way. You really understood how to capture the mood of the party. I am sure people brought extra many memories home with them."
(translated)"There was magic in the air when Morten Deurell performed close-up magic at the Muscular Dystrophy Association's youth group course on 23 October. A thoroughly professional and very entertaining show that was undoubtedly a huge success. Everyone was fascinated – there was both loud laughter and silent wonder. You really know how to combine magic with imagination, creativity, empathy, situational awareness and not least comedy. It was a very positive experience, which we are happy to recommend to others."
(translated)"Hi Morten. Many thanks for last time! You were a huge success at my 40th birthday! We were all absolutely wild about the show. You are totally nimble-fingered and sharp at magic. The coolest thing is that you do it right in front of us, which makes you even more fascinated by not being able to understand how the hell it happened… And you're funny on top of it!! That really broke the ice between the guests and helped make the rest of the evening and night fun for everyone. Absolutely brilliant."
(translated)"Thanks for a lively act at Kristina's confirmation. Cool and professional as always. Your tricks have become really "tight" over the years."
(translated)"Thanks for super entertainment at Fie's confirmation at Skævinge Kro. It was a fantastic act on a super day. The guests loved your magic and your comedy, and Neller still hasn't figured out where the balls went."
(translated)"Thanks for brilliant entertainment. Hope we get to experience your show another time."
(translated)"In connection with a 34th birthday we hired Morten somewhat on a whim. We needed an act and had heard about stand-up magic. It was absolutely fantastic! In reality it was more show than magic. And that was important, because when you gather 40 people in 10 square metres, you're sitting very close. But Morten created a super great atmosphere, involved the audience in a playful way and finished things off boldly by singing a joke – which landed spot on. Morten has a great feel for audiences, and that created a super birthday act."
(translated)"You had really worked on the '50th birthday trick' and the lifeline with the rope was both philosophical and entertaining. Well done. I've only heard good things about you throughout the evening. Would definitely recommend you to others."
(translated)"Hi Morten. I've had to give your contact details to several of our guests who wanted to know how to get in touch with you. Thank you for going from table to table creating gaping mouths and helpless laughter. Thank you for helping with our birthday celebration, which you helped make festive and unforgettable."
(translated)"You deserve a big thank you for your fine show at our party. Our guests were very enthusiastic. I thought it was really good! You will certainly be remembered in the future when we look back on the party."
(translated)"Morten performed here in Greve with his fantastic magic show, which enchanted young and old alike – it was really impressive. Morten, thank you for a wonderful evening."
(translated)"Hi Morten. Thank you for helping to make our wedding celebration truly special. You had our guests laughing and marvelling together. All the best from us."
(translated)"Hi Morten 🙂 Here the day after I just want to thank you for super entertainment 🙂 everyone was very enthusiastic!! Thanks again and have a good Sunday. Hope we get the chance to experience you again another time."
(translated)"Thank you for last Saturday – as I also mentioned to you, we were very satisfied with how your magic show went, as the entertainment value at the party rose several degrees once you had performed."
(translated)"Thanks for yesterday – it was super and people found it really entertaining. You are absolutely a skilled performer! Maybe we'll meet again another time. Best of luck going forward."
(translated)"It was a really great experience and we had a fantastic time. Morten came into the living room and created an atmosphere as if we had known him forever. Completely himself, and we took him in immediately. We felt flattered and comfortable in Morten's company. Great fun, great style, we sat with our mouths open. I am super satisfied and everyone said that Morten was absolutely the right act – and typical of me, where had I found him etc. Morten put down his card, which people took."
(translated)"You were the icing on the cake… THANK YOU, you Star!"
(translated)"It was a pleasure to see you entertain our consultants and other colleagues with your show. You managed to incorporate key statements from our new product, and you also captured the mood and jargon among the audience which made the show even more personal and entertaining."
(translated)"Thank you for performing as a magical act at Roskilde Festival for the second time. It has been an extra touch for the festival guests. It is indeed impressive how you entertain by making things disappear and reappear!"
(translated)"We would like to say a thousand thank yous for last Saturday at our son's stag do. You were just absolutely fantastic and our guests had a tremendous time. It was funny, entertaining and fascinating. We have received exclusively positive feedback from everyone. I would also like to thank you for the person you are. You are an incredibly pleasant, charming and likeable person to be around and it rubs off on the guests. Once again a thousand thanks for a wonderful evening."
