Twenty-four hour party person: Dan Wood, the Magic Hatter

A York children’s entertainer could be named the best in Yorkshire – with the help of our votes.

The Magic Hatter is in the regional final of a competition to find the country’s top children’s party company, run by the Netmums parenting site.

Dan Wood is the Magic Hatter, while wife Bev is assistant Hattie. They set up the company in 2010 and specialised in themed children’s parties and events.

From wonderland to wizards, pirates to princesses, these themes help make birthdays magical.

Now the firm is competing to be be crowned the overall Yorkshire area winner.

Voting closes on August 23. To register your support, go to the entertainers page at Netmums and click the “Vote” button by Magic Hatter.

“We work hard to provide the most magical memories for children, with themed magic shows full of amazement, excitement and lots of laughter,” said Dan.

“We really enjoy what we do and every vote counts, so I’d like to ask all the local mums and dads to get behind us, vote for us and make us the Yorkshire winner.”

Each voter is entered into a draw to win £250 worth of Smyths Toy Store vouchers.
