There are few people for whome the phrase, 'Born to perform' rings truer than it does for Campbell Black.
Born and raised just outside Glasgow, Campbell showed an early instinct for entertaining – though only for family, as he was, almost paradoxically, a shy and introverted young man. Everything changed when a local expert offered guidance and opened the door to the world of performance. Campbell learned not just technique but how to connect and engage – how timing, presence and genuine interaction can turn simple moments into unforgettble experiences. With that encouragement, Campbell started performing publicly at the age of ten and hasn't stopped since! This sparked his journey from shy introvert to the confident, charming and comical entertainer people know today.
Over the years, Campbell has developed a style that is unmistakably his: warm, witty and effortlessly engaging. His goal is simple – every event he attends should feel more alive, more connected and more memorable than it would have been without him. He specialises in creating atmosphere, helping people relax, mingle, laugh and experience something together. Whether it's a wedding, private celebration or corporate gathering, he moves through the room with ease, becoming a hallmark of the experience and the walking conversation starter you didn't know you needed – bringing people into the moment and giving them stories to share long after the night ends.
Campbell practices every day, loves what he does and is never happier than when he's engaging with people and elevating the energy of an event. His work has taken him from events across Scotland to holiday resorts in Spain, to the Swiss National Day parade in Adelboden, to the base of the pyramids of Giza in Egypt – and, most importantly, to countless celebrations for everyday people. One of his proudest achievements was being recognised as close-up entertainer of the year by his peers, which is basically the industry's way of saying, 'Yes, he's very good – book him now before he's unavailable!'
For Campbell, performing isn't just what he does – it's how he helps create the kind of moments that make an event feel truly unique. Whether it's a wedding, corporate function, private party or any occasion where people come together, he believes every gathering deserves to run smoother, feel full of energy and bring people together naturally. It's about giving guests memories they'll carry with them long after the night ends – he can't wait to bring that to yours.
