Organisers of the Group Leisure & Travel Awards 2017 have announced that magician Ben Hanlin will perform and co-host at the 2017 ceremony.
Ben Hanlin is a British magician and television presenter, best known for presenting the ITV2 series Tricked since 2013.
He’s been performing close-up magic for over 15 years, and has what’s described as a ‘devilishly quick’ sleight of hand that has amazed audiences with magic that often involves a deck of cards, mobile phones and other everyday objects.
By co-hosting the Group Leisure & Travel Awards, Ben will aim to wow guests with his performance, with lots of fun promised during the ceremony itself. Ben will announce the winners and co-host alongside Group Leisure & Travel magazine publisher, Rob Yandell.
Ben’s career saw him rise to fame as ‘Magic Boy’ on YouTube, where his series of magic-themed videos have had over 900,000 views. He’s starred in the touring show The Illusionists, and, recently appeared on ITV1’s Live at the Palladium.
In addition, Ben has enjoyed television appearances on Celebrity Juice, BBC Breakfast, This Morning, Good Morning Britain, and Soccer AM.
