Meet Blue Peter Presenter, Joel!
The ultimate page for all things Joel has landed, and it's packed with fun facts, arts and crafts, tasty recipes, mind-boggling magic tricks, quizzes, and more... all with Joel at the heart of it.

Who is Joel Mawhinney?
Joel is Blue Peter's 41st presenter, and he has brought a touch of magic to the show! He first came in as a guest on the show back in 2018, and by 2022 he was officially part of the team.
Born in Northern Ireland and born in 1997, Joel isn’t just a magician - he’s a creative powerhouse. Whether he’s making things disappear or stunning stars with his tricks, he’s always is practising to 'wow' the Blue Peter audience.
And when the magic curtain closes, Joel swaps playing cards for piano keys, winding down by playing music.
Joel’s passion, positivity, and love of learning make him the perfect member of the Blue Peter gang. 💙
