Dante was AMAZING!!!! We had a joint birthday party for 3 kids and he was able to incorporate all 3 birthday kids in the show and all were very happy. That shoe was entertaining, funny Dante was able to manage all kids. He stayed for quite a long time after the show to share experience with the kids and chat with them. We highly recommend Dante.
Dante is extremely professional! He arrived early to setup to on time for the time slot we booked him. We were at the park and he was well prepared for the atmosphere.
Great show! Kids and adults were entertained! Truly a wonderful idea to book him for our daughter's first birthday! She was so engaged to watch his show too. Definitely worth having him on your next party!
Dante is a fantastic magician who connected incredibly well with both the adults and children. His act was spectacular. He was professional, great with kids, and a true class act. We were extremely grateful that he agreed to perform for us at literally the last minute when another performer cancelled. Dante was wonderful - we will definitely work with him in the future!
Saw this show at a fifth birthday party today and was so impressed. Knew the audience so well and had the kids laughing hysterically and actually watching for a full hour.
Dante was an incredible magician. He arrived early to scope a suitable spot for the show then setup all his gear. The kids were very curious during this preparation and he was patient to "keep the magic sacred". The show was a blast and many of the tricks were super incredible even for the adult audience. Dante was always engaged with the audience and pulled multiple different people to participate in his magic show. It was a rather large group and he did a superb job. Thank you Dante!
Dante performed at my son's 5th birthday and this was absolutely the highlight of the party. He had 4-7 year olds glued to their seats, laughing nonstop and just having the best time. If you're looking for entertainment at your child's birthday, Dante is the person to hire. Also I should mention that every interaction with him from start to finish was very professional and communicative. Thank you for making my son's birthday so special.
This review is way overdue, but when you still want to write one months after the event, it's only for a very special thing which was our experience with Dante.
We hired Dante to do a magic show for our son's 5th birthday at Safari Run in Sunnyvale, and it was a hit!
The audience participation was incredible, all the kids wanted to be the magician's assistants. The kids' age range was from 3 to 5, and everyone had a blast including the adults!
We'll definitely hire Dante again; he's an amazing artist and also a great person, easy to talk to and make plans with. He promptly responded to all of our emails, answered all of our questions, and called us the night before the event to confirm. Thanks to him, entertainment was one less thing to worry about, and we really appreciated that.
I wish I also had videos to share for this review, but the truth is, every time I picked up my phone to do that, I was so distracted by another trick that I failed to record a single video of decent quality - he was just that good! I highly recommend Dante for any kids' event and I'm hoping to have him host another magic show for us in the future.
Dante is awesome! He's a magician and entertainer! He came through our big family reunion and had us cracking up and blown away with his magic tricks. Highly recommend him!
Dante gave a great performance at my son's birthday Party, he has a great spirit, good energy and kept all the kids amazed with big smiles at all times! He's very talented and professional.
We definitely recommend Dante's Magic show!
Thank you Dante for making my son's birthday full of smiles and special!
Highly recommend Dante for any magician needs. He was excellent at our son's first birthday party, leaving the kids (and adults) in awe and amazement. He arrived on time and worked in the kids to his routine, they loved every bit.
Dante is PHENOMENAL. We invited him to our 6 year old's birthday party and the kids had a blast! The kids were laughing through and through. I've been to parties before where they have a magician and usually they are geared towards very young kids, or the tricks are quite silly.. but Dante is a true entertainer and even the adults at the party were having so much fun. Everyone at the party told me how much they enjoyed the show and he was best magician they have seen. I highly recommend him if you are looking to hire someone for your party.
Dante was absolutely amazing!!! He came through last minute and his show did not disappoint. The kid's LOVED IT and so did the parents!! Highly recommend!!!
Dante did an amazing job for my 5th grade boy's birthday. He kept forty 11 year old boys glued to their seats watching. We heard moments of listening intently with bursts of laughter. Thank you for making this a memorable birthday.
Absolutely terrific!
I did not personally hire Dante but attended a party where he performed. His show was WONDERFUL! My four year old was laughing and fully engaged the entire show. Dante can command a crowd like no other. He had the adults laughing to tears and a big group of four year olds to stay in their seats because they don't want to miss anything. I truly have no idea how he did any of his tricks!!
Thank you Dante for a incredible show. You truly are the greatest magician I've ever witnessed.
We hired Dante for my son's 5th birthday - the kids were mostly aged 3-5, with a couple 7 year old siblings also attending.
I wish I could give 6 stars - I'm not sure we've ever had a better birthday celebration. Dante went above and beyond, and everybody had an amazing time - the birthday boy, the guests, the parents. I believe Dante's usual show is for a slightly older crowd, but he put together an act that had the younger kids completely captivated.
The icing on the cake was that the balloon artist we had also planned on having come had to cancel at the last minute, and Dante put together a special balloon animal for the birthday boy to make up for it. He is absolutely worth every penny - hire him, you won't regret it!
Dante was great! Super entertaining, great tricks and handled the kiddos so well. So fun!
Dante is incredibly fun! Kids laugh for an whole hour non stop. Even the adults enjoys the show so much. Thanks for making our party great!
We hired Dante to perform at my daughter's seven birthday for the kids, figured it would give the adults some time to relax. Well, the kids LOVED it, and he had all the adults' attention the entire time too. Dante knows his craft and his audience well, and really knows how to connect with kids and ensure they have fun. His focus isn't on impressing but entertaining, and he really succeeds. My daughter is very shy and he really engaged and worked her in to things just as much as she was comfortable with. Recommend him wholeheartedly. It's a bit pricier than some other magicians, but it's a full magic show with crowd work and tricks the whole time. Thank you!
I hired Dante for my daughter's 10th birthday and all the kids loved the show. He was friendly, funny and full of energy. The kids laughed so hard throughout the show and it was the talk of the party long after he left.
My son was particularly impressed with all the tricks and Dante was gracious enough to show him a few tricks after the show ended. My son, and some of the other kids, went around showcasing their newly acquired magic skills after Dante left. It was very endearing to witness their excitement.
Dante is a master of his craft and a great entertainer. Thanks for a great show!
Thank you so much Dante for making my sons 5th Birthday a memorable one. Things to expect - Dante is a great communicator and worked selflessly around our schedule. He had a awesome, engaging and funny routine. We had twenty kids at the pre-school and the ages ranged from 2-5 and every child was joyful at comedy/magic trick routine. From one father to another, thank you Dante for making my kid laugh out loud!!
Dante came to my daughters 6th birthday party. He is Absolutely Awesome!!!!
First of all, he was able to accommodate our schedule - due to weather, we changed the time once and changed location once. Dante didn't complaint at all, and tried his best to accommodate our schedule.
Secondly, during the day of the show, it was still scattered rain. Our party was hosted in a park in open space, with very limited cover for the picnic area. Dante hosted the entire show under the rain. With NO complaints, and pulled off the entire show with great performance for the overwhelmingly excited kids.
Last but not least, he made my little girl felt very special. Her name was mentioned a couple times during the show, and Dante also clued the audience to say happy birthday to her, and made her his little assistant during the magic performance, and she had a blast.
If anyone would love to have a great host with some coolest magic tricks, we would recommend Dante without a heartbeat! He is your guy!
Thank you , Dante. We appreciate all you do for our little girl, and her friends.
Dante performed at my daughter's 8th birthday for a group 65 ( 32 kids and adults ) . He is a very engaging performer and the way he took the children along into every trick - talking to them, while performing , responding to their
questions and observations was amazing. He was able to hold the crowd to his attention and we didn't realize how fast 45 mins passed. Many children got to be helpers in the show and loved being part of the performance .
The children loved the performance and the adults enjoyed it too . Dante was funny, entertaining and a total crowd pleaser !
My daughter had the best surprise of all, since the magic show was kept from her and seeing Dante come in is when she realized there was going to be magic ! She was able to perform in a section with Dante and will cherish the memory for a long time !
Dante is wonderful! There's a reason he is in high demand. He is oh so funny and really does a great job of comedy, magic, and sending a message of care and love. He made our party a hit! Thanks Dante!
Dante preformed for my son's 9th birthday and was so much fun! Both children and adults had a blast. My favorite part was when the kids thought they knew his tricks but he blew their minds lol. He's very funny and entertaining. My son said he wants Dante to come back for his party next year, which says a lot. Thank you so much, Dante, for making the party so memorable!
We hired Dante the Magician for my son's 7th birthday party, and it was a fantastic decision! Dante was professional, friendly, and easy to communicate with. He arrived on time and set everything up himself. The magic show was amazing, and it kept both the kids and adults entertained. My son, who can be a bit shy, was initially skeptical but ended up declaring it the best part of his birthday, and I was so happy about it!!! I highly recommend Dante for anyone looking for a magician for their child's party.
Thank you so much DANTE
Dante not only preformed but was the key element to the success of my son's 7th birthday party. I was a little hesitant about relaying on someone near the holidays to A) show up an hour away, B) not be sick (unfortunately we have to still think of these things), and C) be able to keep the attention of 30 kids and about 12 adults. At one point I looked across the room and everyone was quiet .... WOW
Dante was worth every penny and he not only made my son feel special but his classmates too as they participated in his acts.
The kids are still talking about Dante a week later and I given secretly smile to myself, "best money spent."
Thank you Dante!
I identified Dante by way of a strong referral from another Bay area entertainer who singled Dante out as being the best local magician. My son's 7th birthday was upcoming, and Dante received me warmly by phone when I outreached. He took careful notes of my son's background, including how my son would/not best be spot-lighted amongst friends and family the day of the party.
Last Saturday, the birthday party date arrived, and Dante showed with a smile and on time. He set up his amazing stage presence in our great room. And show time had near 20 children and at least as many adults laughing and smiling throughout. My son who is now sitting next to me as I write this review says "Dante is the best magician in the world". I can tell you the video capture of Dante's magic delivery has brought my wife and I great smiles.
Magic Dante performed at the Highlands Recreation District on Friday, October 25th, 2019. The performance was excellent, as our crowd of over 200 laughed and truly enjoyed the performance. Magic Dante arrived early, setup on time, and was overall a pleasure to work with through booking to performing. We will use Magic Dante again in the future for events in our community.
Dante performed at our son's first birthday to a crowd of all age groups, the kids were as young as 3 to 16 all enjoyed his show and the adults too were pretty impressed with his tricks.
The best part is he comes with the entire package of setup, mike etc and puts up a great show.I must say it was the hightlight of the party and was so glad he was able to perform for us.
will definitely be recommending his services and maybe have him at our son's birthday when he is a little older and can enjoy himself!
Thanks Dante, you did an amazing job!
Magic Dante was a delight to have at our Purim School Carnival. I have been to many magic shows, and I must say Dante was by far the best I have ever seen. He had us all absolutely riveted by his many illusions, and he has perfected them all. Even us grown ups were completely taken by surprise. He is smooth, witty, and completely hilarious. I have never seen an entire room full of kids completely spellbound to a magician to this degree. Ever.
Thank you Dante, you we're absolutely magnificent! You were the star of our carnival.. definitely looking forward to booking you again!!
Dante is an absolute delight! He impresses from the first moment he appeared, cheerful and intriguing! Throughout the performance, both children and adults could not take their eyes off him and his tricks. He was definitely the highlight of our celebration. Extremely professional and skilled top magician, you could only dream about.
Dante was such a hit at my son's 7th birthday party. He had a group of kids from ages 3-9 completely entertained, laughing and screaming with excitement. It was pretty impressive! It was really cool to have something that everyone could enjoy together. I asked my son what his favorite part of the day was, and without skipping a beat he said "the magic show!"
Dante was super easy to work with, responsive, professional, and really made my son's party something special. Thank you Dante!
We attended a 6 year old birthday party and WOW! Magic Dante was phenomenal! The adults were enraptured--no one was eating, talking or milling about--all eyes were on Dante. The kids LOST THEIR MINDS!! They were laughing so much. He had the perfect amount of silliness for the kids without losing the adults. His moves were so smooth, I was completely fooled every time. He will make any party a hit.
Saw Dante at a corporate outing. Outstanding magician, and extremely good with kids. Jokes and tricks were funny for all ages, from 4 to 75. Definitely would recommend!
Dante did a superb job at my son's 5th birthday party. He had both the kids and and adults laughing hysterically! He was a pleasure to communicate with, both beforehand and the day of. Dante is clearly quite intelligent, as he makes clever jokes on the fly. He included several children in his show but didn't force anyone to participate. Dante brought everything he needed and asked only for a flat space with some shade. Now my son's classmates all want magician birthday parties!!
Dante was so amazing and the absolute highlight of our son's 6th birthday. Both the parents and the kids really enjoyed his show, he had all ages engaged (not to mention truly lol'ing). His show is a balance of humor and impressive magic tricks that he delivers in a highly considered and professional manner. In addition to him being a great performer his real magic is his understanding of children. You can tell he has a kind heart and he is focused on making sure the kids are comfortable and having fun, and he knows how to roll with the unexpected additions that young ones might bring to a show. My son didn't want to take part in the show as he is a bit shy for that sort of thing, but Dante made sure he felt special by adding special touches that still made him feel like the star of the show.
I really appreciate everything that Dante brought to the party, I had multiple parents coming up to me afterward asking to get his information, even saying they wanted him at their own birthday parties! After everything that we've been through with the pandemic Dante's show felt like pure joy and something I know my son will always remember, and that's worth everything to me.
Best magician I've seen in years. He delighted the children and adults alike at my 11year old son's birthday party. He was wonderful at weaving attention to the birthday boy and other kids individually and made us all giggle throughout. My son thanked me afterward and said his friends all loved the show. Thank you Dante!!
Dante is amazing worth every penny you spend on for your special day. We hired him twice and every time he left with tons of joy, excitement and memories for our event. Thank you and highly highly recommend him to any big or small event. ( we host over 150+children at once and everyone doesn't want him to leave:)
Dante was a fantastic magician for our corporate children's event. Everything went very smoothly and as expected. His show is super engaging for the children and there was a ton of laughter!
