Entertainer Carl De Rome to be remembered during Blackpool Magic Convention 2024 one year after cancer death

Entertainer Carl De Rome brought magic to the resort over the years, until he sadly died on 20 Feb, 2023.

Now, a group of variety performers will gather to remember their former colleague, with a day of entertainment - the day after the Blackpool Magic Convention 2024.

'the kindest guy in the business'

Carl was described as 'the kindest guy in the business', before he lost his battle with cancer.

Now his family are hoping to raise money for Trinity Hospice, who cared for the internationally renowned showman in his final weeks, so that cancer patients can be 'treated at home rather than having to be admitted into hospital for symptom management'.
