The office is buzzing about your magic! One employee on my floor was telling one person after the next about the watch trick you did with our president and CEO. Truly amazing. Thanks for making the corporate event fun and entertaining.

Our corporate party had live music, fancy catered food and even guided tours. But the one thing everyone is still raving about days later is that amazing magician! Great work. You impressed a lot of people who aren’t easily impressed!

Up Close Interactive Magic

Are you looking for corporate party entertainment? One of the important factors in creating a really special event is to make sure that your guests start having fun right away…minutes after they arrive. You’ll be delighted as you hear the gasps of amazement and laughter as your guests are entertained with their own 5 to 7 minute shows which include super fun magic that happens in their own hands. This enchanting, fun, and intimate form of “walk around” entertainment is perfect for cocktail parties or as before dinner entertainment. It will leave the lasting impression you desire.

Testimonials

~

David was the highlight of our market. Everyone (attendees, managers, executives, hotel staff, etc.) was absolutely enthralled with his street magic, and came back for more during the evening show. We can’t thank him enough. From day one he put us at ease with great communication and attention to detail, and then truly shined as he engaged our customers and kept them in the showroom wanting to see more.

I can’t say enough about David. We hired him for a corporate event AND for a separate fundraiser event and he hit the ball out of the park! Not only are his magic tricks amazing (i.e. mind-blowing!), he is such a great guy and very personable. Great jokes to boot…. and the crowd loved him.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is David Farr able to entertain people who don't speak English?

Thankfully, magic is very universally appealing to all walks of life! Although your non-english speaking guests may not totally understand every funny joke David makes, they’ll still be thoroughly entertained and amazed by what they see!

Does David perform outside of the Minneapolis St. Paul area?

Yes, even though David is based in Minneapolis, MN, he travels to all parts of Minnesota as well as the upper midwest in cities such as Des Moines, IA, Fargo, ND, Sioux Falls, SD and Madison, WI. You may have been looking for a magician near me when searching online but keep in mind David Farr will travel!

What do we need to provide you on our end?

What is needed varies based on the type of entertainment being provided. If you go with a strolling/close up magic package, where David is merely strolling through your event and entertaining the guests, there are virtually no additional requirements. Everything David needs he comes prepared with in his pockets ready to entertain when he arrives at the event. For the stage show packages, there are some important requirements that are needed in order for a successful performance. 1. If David is the only performer with equipment on the stage (besides a podium), then we recommend a stage at least 12′ x 8′ and at least 6 inches off the floor. Depending on how high the stage is, stairs might also be required as there is fun audience participation throughout the performance. In cases where David’s equipment would be sharing the stage with other performer(s), a larger stage me be necessary or other special considerations. 2. In most cases, David will provide his own sound system unless it’s a performance that requires air travel. In this case, we’ll also need a professional sound system setup and monitored throughout the performance. The best type of mic is a headset mic known as a “country man”. It is wireless and hands free. We also need an an input for an iPod for sound effects. Once again, most of the time David provides his own professional sound system. Please keep in mind that you still may have AV needs yourself and still may want to ask your venue to provide a microphone to show a presentation, announce winners, give speeches, etc. 3. In regards to lighting, we have no specific needs but do recommend not having your event too dark because it becomes more difficult for your guests to experience the amazing magic when they are struggling to see what’s happening.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept checks, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and PayPal. You may pay securely online using PayPal or our Secure Payment Page. If paying with check, please make check payable to “David Farr

Is David able to entertain while people are eating?

Technically yes but we really don’t recommend it. By the nature of the entertainment, your guests participate in the magic and are often asked to help out. This is sometimes difficult when people are eating. And also it’s hard to “watch closely” when you’re enjoying dinner. This applies to all packages, strolling and stage shows.

Will this embarrass or offend anyone?

We’re proud to say that absolutely NO ONE is embarrassed in any way. We’ve heard many horror stories of how other entertainers have completely offended guests in the audience with off color jokes and remarks. David Farr’s entertainment is completely G-Rated and never relies on entertaining people by making fun or laughing at people. “We’re not laughing at you, we’re laughing with you…”

What kind of room set up do you need for the stage show?

Typically having the stage setup against a wall having all of your guests seated in front and as close as possible (this helps provide a more intimate feeling). Guests that are seated directly to either side of the stage or behind, have TERRIBLE seats and therefore it’s best to avoid that. A space that can comfortably seat all of your guests without having them on the sides or behind the stage is best. Also watch out for those huge annoying beams right in the middle of some rooms. Please take into consideration your guests so they don’t get stuck behind one of them and miss out on the fun. See the example room diagram below. Optionally, you can request “pipe and drape” for the stage which basically serves as the backdrop of the performance and gives it a nice feel.

What size audiences can David entertain?

David’s entertainment is best suited for small to medium size crowds. David entertains groups as intimate as 10 people all the way up to 500 guests in a ballroom. If you have a large group (200 or more), the use of projection screens makes the show even more enjoyable for your guests. Talk to your venue or contact a local audio/video company with questions to further explore that option.

David Farr performed at my son’s all-night high school graduation party and was the hit of the night. The kids could not get enough and that says a lot for an age group that can be tough to impress. They were blown away.. would highly recommend for any event.
David Farr was THE hit of the night! For 3 straight hours he was melting the brains of our 2025 Senior Class. And let me assure you this is not some pull a flower from behind your ear, this is jaw dropping, mind bending magic!! Anytime you heard a crowd roar you knew David was in the middle of it! His ability to engage, entertain, but most importantly make all the students feel seen and involved is unmatched by other entertainers in the industry! This is our 4th year working with him and our Senior Party and next year will be our 5th for sure! Thank you, David, for sharing your time and talent, you are the best!!
Response from the owner:Thanks so much Kate. I take great pride in that my strolling magician services are the most reliable in the Twin Cities. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback about my role at the all night graduation party in Maple Grove, MN. Thanks again Kate and congratulations to your graduate!
We had David at our senior all-night grad party. It is difficult to keep these students awake at 1:00 am, but David did a great job. He is witty and fun to watch. The kids were so engaged and excited. He does some amazing tricks that left the them wondering how he did them the rest of the night. I highly recommend David for your next high school, corporate or holiday party!
Response from the owner:Thanks so much Carrie! I had a great time wowing the graduates at their graduation party in Mankato. You guys were a lot of fun. Thank you!
David is always amazing. Love watching him baffle the students every time. Their reactions are priceless. David will always be invited to our event each year.
Response from the owner:Thanks so much for me inviting me to the all night graduation party for Prescott. For over a decade, I had the pleasure of performing at the Prescott party and it's always so much to be your strolling magician. Thanks Kathy!
David Farr performed at my senior lock in, and despite winning a TV, his performances were my favorite part of the night. After seeing him perform I am 80% sure that he is an actual wizard just here to have a good time. 100/100 recommend, nothing but the highest praise.
Response from the owner:Wow, what a nice review! Thanks so much and congratulations to you! 🎊
What a great performer was at my daughter’s senior all night party and had a crowd around him all night very impressive

Response from the owner:Thanks Jeffrey for the kind words. I love working with you guys as your preferred "magician near me"!
We hired David to help at an Building Industry Event. Thanks to David, we truly had the most engaging and memorable booth at the show! It made the night one for the books, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Highly recommend David Farr for any event—he will absolutely wow your crowd!
Response from the owner:Thank you Joel for your very kind words. It was a pleasure working with you guys at The Canterbury Expo center in Shakopee, MN! You and your sales team were a delight to work the crowd with. Thanks again Joel!
David is AMAZING!! We had a company party and decided it would be a nice add to bring in some entertainment. David was the perfect addition for our group! He was prompt, polite, very entertaining and left all of our employees talking about him for days after our event. I couldn't recommend David more if you are looking to liven up your next party or company event!
Response from the owner:Thanks Andie! I had so much fun being your magician at your office party in Minneapolis. You guys have a great space there! Perfect for magic! It was great working with you and Jason. Thanks for inviting me to entertain your group and thanks for the awesome review!
Both adults and grandchildren were over the top entertained. The interaction with the audience and complex magic made for a great evening of fun. Highly recommend , everybody wants to go another show.
Response from the owner:You guys were awesome Bob! This was my first time performing my magician show at MN Horse & Hunt Club in Prior Lake, Minnesota. You guys made it very special for me. Great energy in the crowd. Thanks so much Bob!
David Farr was hired to entertain at our company holiday party. He did the hour walk around of magic as well as a 45 minute on stage show. Both were so well received and everyone was so excited about how 'magical' of an experience it actually was. If you are looking for a fun entertainment option for your office party, we highly recommend David Farr!
Response from the owner:Your team members were a lot of fun at the holiday party at Bunkers Hill Golf Club in Coon Rapids, MN. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave this kind review. I loved being your magician! It was great working with you Rebecca. Thanks so much!
Great close up magic! Was a hit for our holiday party!
Response from the owner:Mark, thanks for inviting me to entertain your team at The Solar Arts Building in Minneapolis. That was my first time being a magician at that venue for a corporate event. I had so much fun wowing your guests. Please keep my magic in mind for the next company event you plan. Thanks again Mark!
When I first heard that a magician was going to be the entertainment for a holiday gathering, I was skeptical. David Farr put on an amazing show that was interactive and truly mind boggling. We liked it so much we hired him to do a magic show for a family member's 60th birthday party. This second show was even better than the first and everyone enjoyed themselves. David Farr is a true entertainer and how he does the magic he performs is truly remarkable!
Response from the owner:Your family was awesome! I had so much fun amazing you guys during your private party at Frankie's in New Hope, MN. Thanks for including me in the fun John!
