David and his business partner came and performed at our company's sales awards ceremony at the end of February. All of the guests were completely amazed. Not only were his illusions amazing and fun, he's funny to boot. How he managed to unlock my co-worker's Iphone is still beyond me! They made sure to ask what our attire was like and came decked out to match. I would highly recommend you booking him for your event. read more

I met David in line, waiting to see a movie about the magician and card sleight of hand genius, Ricky Jay. We got to talking, and I learned that David did a gig in Redwood City. Caught his show and was really impressed, so asked him to perform two shows for a group of researchers and physicians. David's performances were just wonderful. Edgy, full of humor and spontaneity. The best part was that the audience had a large number of neuroscientists and clinicians, and they were fooled possibly even more than the general audience. After the show, David stayed around and chatted with many of the group, as there was a lot of interest in perception, cognition and how the mind sees things. read more

David is a MIND BLOWING act! He performed for our annual company get together and transformed even the most cynical in the audience. If you want to see a GENIUS in action - someone who transforms and elevates their craft to a completely different level - then you need to absolutely see David in action. Brilliant mentalist, amazing magician, FANTASTIC WIT, very very very classy and personable with an amazingly smooth and fluid performance - and with a very down to earth attitude despite being OUTSTANDING in his craft. David will surely go far very far in his profession. He is about as good as it gets. Highly recommended. I've rarely been impressed by anyone so much. Its like watching a sublime Roger Federer performance. read more

In a word, "Perfection". We hired him for a corporate conference for a finance team...not the most "easily amused" crowd. They are skeptics and realists by nature. But let me tell you...by the end of the evening they were all singing David's praises with statements like "But...how??", "that was creepy, but so cool!", and my favorite from a VERY skeptical attendee..."OMG...WHAT-JUST-HAPPENED?". His walk around during cocktail hour got the crowd ready for the beauty of his 40 minute show. The next day during our conference wrap up, EVERY SINGLE PERSON listed David as the highlight of the three day event. I was so proud to have introduced his lovely brand of magic to my team. I owe him a huge amount of gratitude for helping to make our work event truly an epic experience for everyone! If you haven't seen him yet, you must make it a priority. I can't believe he hasn't been on America's Got Talent yet. He would definitely win. read more

I booked David Gerard for a non-profit fundraising event and he knocked our socks off. Don't think twice, just book him. Don't blink twice, or you might miss the magic. David is TRULY magical and our guests were absolutely in LOVE! Without a doubt he was a major hi-light of the evening. There isn't a single person I've talked to who attended the event who hasn't raved about "the Magician!". I am thrilled out of my mind that he was able to squeeze us in. I wouldn't hesitate to book him again and I will definitely try to catch one of his stage shows. David Gerard is a top-shelf entertainer. Oh, and a sharp dresser, too! read more

David was outstanding!! We had David perform at our company holiday party (90-100 guests) and everyone was so amazed by his tricks! The next morning people still couldn't stop talking about it! David was great to work with and was quick to respond to all emails and questions. He was extremely personable and friendly, and did a great job breaking the ice and making people feel comfortable. I highly recommend using David for an event!! read more

This young and funny magician and mentalist was a huge success at our adult engagement party. I'm still getting compliments from my guests and how did I ever find this guy!! One couple said he is better than anyone they've seen in Vegas. He's that good. read more

Absolutely amazing! Beyond anything you might expect from a "magic show". It's been weeks and my friends and I still can't stop talking about it. read more

Was a fantastic entertainer! Great t work with as well. Wil hire him for another party.

I have seen David in three different types of events (intimate group dinner, company party, his own magic show with an audience) and they have all been great! I'm not someone that is usually interested in magic, but he is seriously impressive and includes humor in his shows which makes them even better and more entertaining. Beyond that, he is just a genuinely nice person and super easy to work with as far as booking, responsiveness and dealing with payment. He's on rotation for events with myself and several of my friends...he's that good! read more

Excellent show and very unique tricks. This is more like a mind reading show with a few smart tricks in between. We enjoyed the evening and were charmed by David's tricks . The show is very engaging and I highly recommend it. You will be stunned by his abilities and skills. read more

I had the pleasure of working with David to host Quest Nutrition's holiday party (over 100 attendees). He was the star of both the evening & conversations the following day. His performance was mind-blowing & hilarious. He is talented in modern mind-reading, traditional magic, & sharp wit. Our employees thoroughly enjoyed both his roaming magic & stage performance. Skeptics are still debating & hopefuls are buying starter magic kits! I would highly recommend David for entertainment & social engagement. He is also very down to earth & accommodating to work with. read more

David was amazing! I hired him for a corporate party, and every guest David interacted with was left in awe. Guests found him personable, charming, and exciting. He stuck around a few minutes after the party and taught some people magic tricks! David will be a great addition to your next party or event. read more

David Gerard's magic show is awesome! Highly entertaining and very fun. David is personable and very funny. Over and over you will ask yourself "how does he do it?" read more

I cannot say enough good things about David. I first saw him a couple of years ago at a business event and was so impressed that we invited him to perform at our own company offsite last summer. Most recently, I had him come to a 20-person bridal shower that I hosted at my home. First of all - I have seen 3 shows and each one had different tricks and elements. Also - David is exceptionally funny and peppers in so many "group/context-specific jokes" that every show is different. He instantly forms connections with the individuals and the group as a whole, which makes the entire thing much more of an experience than simply a show. His ability to have people participate and share small things about themselves in a comfortable and non-embarrassing or intimidating way makes his show a fun and effective method of inspiring bonding among friends, colleagues and strangers alike. We had a few ladies at the shower who are incredibly shy and slightly apprehensive about "audience participation". David quickly helped them feel at ease and after the event, they raved about the experience. David was also generous with his time, lingering after the show, chatting with people and doing individual/small group tricks. Not only did this give me time to set out the food for my event, but it really made people feel as though they had experienced something extra-special and personal. We spent much of the rest of the event trying to figure out how he did the tricks he did :). My husband, father, brother-in-law and children were bummed to have missed the show, so I am definitely hoping for a family event or party where I can have him come again! If you are even remotely considering hiring David for an event, I HIGHLY recommend it. Even my discerning and frugal little sister (and co-host of the shower) said "The show was so good....worth every penny!" and that is high praise coming from her. read more

David performed at our event of about 50 people back in February. It was a total hit and everyone talked about how great the show was. He is so good! He has so much charisma and his tricks are mind blowing. Everyone was so impressed and we even talked about it months later. Thank you! read more

Everyone is still talking about David Gerard! He has wow'd us for several years now. Each time, our employees are left in amazement. Such talent. It is a treat to have him perform at our company parties. Looking forward to the next! read more

I hired David for my Wife's birthday and retirement celebration - a very special event for sure! David made everything so seamlessly easy. He was very responsive to my reservation request, highly enthusiastic, and fulfilled my exact needs and expectations. Actually, he went beyond my expectations. He did strolling magic at our event, working from small group to small group. I really didn't know what I would get, how good or convincing he might be. He was AMAZING. His presence and demeanor were perfectly engaging and fun. His tricks were amazing and startling. He had folks clapping, gasping, and laughing. Definitely added brilliance and fun to our party. So glad I hired him! read more

David's MAGICAL caliber is VEGAS WORTHY!!!! Every act he does, your saying to yourself, " how did he do that?". And it's the same question you would say to D. Copperfield, Penn & Teller, Chris Angel, David Blain's show. Need I say more? Their magic is different than David's, but it has the same effect, " how did he do that?" !!!!! read more

David is AWESOME! He has joined a number of our corporate events and he always steals the show and is the life of the party. :) All of our guests are always so impressed and he is an excellent addition to any event with any type of crowd. He can either wander through the crowds or set up a station - either way, he always knocks it out of the park and I would HIGHLY recommend him. read more

Great show! Very entertaining and meets all different types of humor! Would highly recommend.

It is not just any magic show! We went to see David Gerard's show last night and it was phenomenal. He is funny, quirky and definitely has been gifted with the art of mystery and magic. This show was at a quaint little place called as Piano Fight in the tenderloin. I recommend everyone should see his show at least once. read more

Definitely worth the ticket price and your time! Brilliantly entertaining and funny too - intimate and involving but thoroughly clever without humiliating the audience. Highly recommend this! read more

David is AMAZING! He originally performed for a black tie event for my company but was so good, that we had to bring him back to perform at our office party. Then he outdid himself there, so we brought him back for a third private party with a ton of very official people who were very impressed with him. I can't say enough about his talent and dedication to detail. Our office party was held at Original Joe's restaurant and he chose to go to each table to perform a few magic tricks for each group so each person can see and experience his amazing performance. This made everything feel special and the people who were left wanting more just followed him from table to table. Everyone in the office said it was the best party we've had in years because of him. The trick he did on me personally left me sleepless that night because I couldn't understand how he did it. Hire him, you won't regret it!! read more

David is a jaw-dropping mentalist. I've seen his show several times and it never gets old. I repeatedly sit there thinking, "Okay, what I just saw isn't possible." "That didn't happen." "There's simply no explanation for this!" David also has great stage presence and is comfortable at handling any size audience. His shows are super-great fun, and he could easily have a long-time career in magic. read more

I was completely mind-blown by David's show. He's a very talented magician and was a great crowd pleaser as well! I would love to take my family again, and have told all of my friends about it!! read more

David is incredible. Whether you see him perform a live show on stage, or walk-around magic during an event, his passion, enthusiasm and preparation shine through. He's guaranteed to perform tricks that will leave you amazed. From card tricks, coins, memory tricks, and even some David Blaine-esque stunts, I definitely recommend him for smart, sleek magic. read more

We hired David for a corporate event in January in Dublin. I came off as the hero for arranging him to perform for us. I received compliments all night and the entire next week at work as well. David was well prepared, humorous, entertaining, captivating, and included a lot of audience participation (which our group liked). We started with close-up magic, and then the "show". Some people arrived late and missed the close-up magic, David was so nice to stay after his show and entertain for a few more minutes. I kept hearing "whoa, ooh and lots of what's!" as he performed. Everyone was amazed! I would hire him again in a heartbeat. read more

David is simply awesome! Not only that he performed so well and mesmerized all the guests but he interacted and engaged everyone so nicely. He made the entire evening such a fun and lively expereince. From contacting him to the end everything went perfectly. read more

I cannot say enough about David's incredible talent. He performed for my mother's 90th birthday dinner and absolutely mesmerized everyone from ages 20 to 95! Not only are the tricks/illusions utterly amazing, but his presentation and connection to his audience is what makes him so totally enthralling.....No one stopped talking about how fabulous he is ("how did he do that?") long into the night! David captivated each and every one of us! We are all ready to see him perform again and again! Bravo!!!!! read more

I hired David for my company's holiday party. The theme was 'speakeasy' and I asked him to work the room throughout the evening, vs. putting the spotlight on him or inserting any stop/start agenda. The plan worked out superbly! He not only blew everyone's mind with his magical talents, but he added just the right amount of glamour and ambience to the evening. I can't wait for the next opportunity to work with David or witness his freaky-stellar magic at another event. The feedback from everyone at the party was nothing short of awe and a unanimous dizzy star-struck takeaway. read more

David Gerard is the real deal. He is a talented, funny and seasoned entertainer. David performed at a private event for about 100 people at our home. He was a smash hit. I would recommend him to anyone considering attending his shows or hiring him for a special event. He will entertain, mystify and just add fun to any occasion! read more

We had David perform as our closing session of a technology conference. He was amazing. He had the entire room engaged the entire time. His mind-bending tricks were fabulous. I have absolutely no idea how he did what he did. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for engaging entertainment. He gets five stars. read more

David recently performed for an employee celebration and immediately had the entire group enthralled. He performed up close, slight of hand tricks during the cocktail hour; it was easy to know where he was in the room by the sounds of delight and amazement coming from each of the small groups he was entertaining. After dinner, he was center stage and again, the entire group was captivated. Not only is he an outstanding mentalist but a great comedic entertainer as well. He easily got the group involved in what was going on and his tricks were astonishing. My group absolutely loved him and I looked like a super star for bringing him to the event! I highly recommend David and would certainly work with him again at a future event. You cannot go wrong having him entertain for you! read more

What a great show. Very entertaining, funny and not to mention mind blowing tricks. David is a charismatic entertainer who can capture an audience very quickly and keep them guessing on the edge of their seats all night. Fun and intriguing show - highly recommended. read more

David performed at a company meeting and was a complete hit. His magic is amazing, and he keeps up a non-stop series of comic one liners while he is performing. The act is energetic, hilarious, baffling, and full of good humor- he does not make anyone feel that they are being made fun of, which some magicians and comedians can do. He was very easy to do business with- picked him for his stellar reviews and also because he was the first of three to respond, and we set up the gig with a quick series of emails. I would highly recommend him for any company meeting or private party. His act is terrific, and so is his walk around magic. read more

This guy is really good. He performed at my wife's 50th birthday party, then for a black tie fundraiser, and he blew everyone away both times. read more

I don't usually write Yelp reviews, but this act was awesome! Some truly incredible tricks, and he even hung out at the bar and did a few card tricks after his act! Super nice guy, and a great show. Would go again read more

One of the beast and funniest show I've ever seen. The magic was amazing and the jokes were solid.

I hired David to come to my home to perform at a birthday party we hosted for a friend. He and I talked at length on the phone before he came and he did a great job explaining the different ways he could perform. We had @ 30-35 guests and because it was a house party and people would be mingling in small groups we decided that David would do close-up encounters with guests rather than have everyone sit down to watch his show. It was perfection! He blended well into the party and casually sat down with different groups and away he went. He is witty and fun and clever and handsome... all great attributes for a guest in your home and even better for hired entertainment! Our guests were blown away. I'm still thinking about the rubber band and coin tricks! He was so good at blending into the party that even the birthday girl was wondering if he was someone's date that she hadn't yet met. We originally discussed 1hr but everyone was having so much fun that we asked him to stay longer. Absolutely worth the $$ to continue the fun. Thanks David! We'll see you again for sure. read more
