We booked David 48 hours before our wedding because our original cocktail hour entertainment option was outdoors, and there was a 100% chance of rain. From the start, David's genuine and kind personality shone compared to the other vendors. He was extremely responsive and asked questions about the event so he could tailor his magic to it. We were initially skeptical about having a close-up magician at our cocktail hour, but it ended up being one of the best decisions we ever made. Honestly, having David around almost made us grateful for rain on our wedding day -- otherwise we never would have had the chance to have him!

David was very professional, entertaining and has this easy good-natured personality. I'm very glad we hired him for our corporate party last week. He showed up on time, looked the part and worked the crowd as needed. The guests were very entertained by his close-up magic. My colleague said she felt like we were at an America's Got Talent episode and we were the guest judges! Not only that, invoicing and billing was very professional, up-to-date and easy, which is definitely preferably when booking for corporate. Would highly recommend!

LOOKING TO HIRE A MAGICIAN? CHOOSE FROM TWO PERFORMANCE OPTIONS
Whether you’re celebrating a birthday for your child, hosting a cocktail party for your friends, or planning an event for your company, you can choose from two types of performing styles: strolling magic and parlor/stage magic. We'll work together to decide which style is right for your event — and you can always do both. No matter which style you choose, the whole crowd will get involved with the show in one way or another.
Strolling Magic

I'll move from group to group, sharing my astonishing magic right in front of people's eyes. Everyone in the group gets a chance to experience the amazement up close.
|
Parlor/Stage Magic
I'll perform a 30- to 45-minute show on a stage, in your living room, or in your backyard. I always involve lots of audience members so everyone gets to see friends and coworkers on the stage.
|
Another Option: Magic Workshop
In addition to watching a show, your guests can even learn some simple and fun tricks they can perform themselves. This is an option you can choose as part of a birthday party for older kids (8 and up) or for adults who want to learn something astonishing.

David was absolutely wonderful at our holiday party this year! We started off the evening with some intimate strolling magic, during which David was captivating and entertaining. Later in the evening, he performed a 25 minute magic show for our team of about 25 and their spouses... David did a wonderful job of keeping the audience of all ages entertained and intrigued. I would happily recommend him for any event and look forward to hosting him again in the future!

David was the highlight of my corporate team building day. He was great to work with, full of ideas and helped shape a combination of magic act, stories, and magic education. It was a big hit with a bunch of engineers. I would highly recommend David for a corporate event.

David was perfect for our neighborhood party. He engaged adults and children alike. Awesome show that everyone really enjoyed. David is great to work with and very professional.

I invited David to perform at a surprise birthday party for my brother's 54th. David put on an interactive and engaging show with just the right amount of humor for our all adult audience. Many of us took part in the experience and his act is a great opening for a memorable birthday party.

Fun magician for our street party. David was great! Our gathering was amazed and amused by his tricks. He was especially engaging with the children. Highly recommended.
/
After the show, everyone kept asking me where I found him and how amazing he was. He had tricks that impressed everyone. I would definitely hire him again!

A big fan of magic here and I have been to many magic shows before. I have witnessed close-up magic of David twice. Both times have been great. I highly recommend David Martinez for any corporate events or special occasions-he is punctual, responsive, respectful and professional. He is totally worth it. He should be on AGT or Penn and Teller show.

I think everyone enjoyed your show and strolling magic very much, I heard some positive reviews! Would love to work with you more in the future.

ABOUT MEI'm an award-winning magician specializing in astonishing magic with everyday objects. I perform at parties, festivals, and other events where people like to have fun and be amazed. I've studied magic since childhood, but I began taking it seriously before my kids were born. They're teenagers now and I'm still doing magic. I also currently serve as president of the Silicon Valley Chapter of the International Brotherhood of Magicians (I.B.M. Ring 216).
For two years, I produced and performed in San Jose's only regular kids and family magic show, The Art of Magic. I've also performed at the famous Magic Garage and with master magician Dan Chan at the Bay Area Dinner Show. And I've won multiple awards for my magic:
I'm a longtime Bay Area resident. I attended school in Sunnyvale, and I received a bachelor's degree in English from U.C. Berkeley. I've worked as a writer in high-tech for most of my life, and I've also written about baseball and other subjects for publication. I live in San Jose with my wife and two kids: a daughter, 15, and a son, 13.
