Mentalist for private parties in Belgium

Guests reacting surprised to mentalist Tijl Kerckhove at a private party

The strongest moments of a party are rarely on the programme.

They happen in between: during the aperitif, between two courses, late in the evening. Someone tells a story, someone brings up a memory. A mentalist draws those moments out.

That is close-up mentalism: impossible moments, close to your guests, with no stage and no pressure.

Mentalism

Where it works

A wedding, a birthday or an anniversary. A housewarming, a big barbecue, a private dining or a graduation party. People laugh, move closer together and talk about it long afterwards.

For guests who think they've seen it all

Which option fits your party?

That depends on the moment, the space and the atmosphere you're after.

Walking

Walking fits best during the reception, the aperitif or a walking dinner. Tijl moves among the guests, with no announcement. The wonder spreads from group to group.

Seated

Seated works when guests linger a little longer. They come by at their own pace to experience something different from the rest of the evening.

A combination

It's possible to combine both options during the same party. Walking during the reception and Seated after the main course, for example.

Which combination works best for your party depends on the programme, the space and the rhythm of the evening. Tijl is happy to talk it through with you. Tell him about your party and he'll send you a tailored proposal.

Briefly describe your party →

“Tijl made sure our wedding became magical not just for us, but for our guests too. Knowing our guests were in good hands, we could fully enjoy our own day. Months later, we still hear nothing but positive reactions. We would ask you again in a heartbeat.”

Questions for Tijl

Practical

How many guests can take part?

With Walking I reach 40 to 50 guests per hour. With Seated it depends on your timing and the setting. For a precise estimate we look at the rhythm of the evening together.

Tell me about your party and I'll send you a proposal.

Which languages do you work in?

English and Dutch. With a multilingual group I switch between both without any trouble.

Do I need to arrange anything?

No. No stage, no technical setup. It works in a venue just as well as at home, in a barn or in a garden. All I need is people.

Does mentalism suit every kind of party?

Yes. From a wedding, birthday or anniversary to an intimate dinner with a handful of guests.
