San Diego Magician for Hire

I'm Zach Waldman. I was working a trade show at the Gaylord Pacific Resort and Convention Center in Chula Vista. Three audience members each chose random numbers. Everyone multiplied them together on their phones. A spectator had been holding a prediction in a mailing tube the entire time. We opened it, pulled out a scroll, unfurled it number by number. Exact match. Then we turned it upside down. The numbers spelled out one of the company's product names. The room lost its mind. That's what I mean when I say nothing is off the shelf. If you're planning a corporate event in San Diego, call me.

San Diego Magician - Shows

I do three things. Stand-up comedy. Magic. Mentalism. All in one show.

Close-up magic during cocktail hour for groups mingling and networking. Stage show after dinner for the full room. I walk in, set up in minutes, and perform. No trucks, no crew, no all-day production.

I've performed for two people and for several thousand. The show scales to your event.

San Diego Magician FAQ

What types of events do you perform at?

Corporate meetings, holiday parties, trade shows, hospitality suites, client appreciation events, and sales conferences. If your company is gathering people in a room, I can make it memorable.

What kind of magic do you specialize in (e.g., close-up, stage, illusion)?

Close-up sleight-of-hand, stage magic, and mentalism. All combined with stand-up comedy. I don't do big box illusions with assistants. Think David Blaine's skill level with a completely different personality.

How long is your typical performance?

It depends on your event. A typical setup is an hour of close-up magic during cocktail hour followed by an hour stage show after dinner. Call me and we'll figure out exactly what your event needs.

Do you perform at San Diego corporate events regularly?

Yes. San Diego is one of my most requested markets. I've performed at events across the city from the Gaslamp Quarter to Chula Vista. If you're planning a corporate event in San Diego, call me early. My San Diego dates go fast.

What are your rates?

I charge a flat fee based on your event details. No hidden costs. Call me or fill out the proposal form and I'll get back to you within 24 hours.

Do you customize the show for our company?

Always. I learn your company, your industry, and your competition before I walk on stage. Nothing is off the shelf.

Is your show appropriate for all corporate audiences?

Yes. The comedy has edge but stays clean. Everyone's a target. Nobody gets humiliated. The CEO and the sales team will both have a great time.

What do you need from us to make the show work?

Proper staging, good seating arrangement, and a brief conversation beforehand about your company and your audience. I send detailed requirements with every booking.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancellations within 90 days of the event are non-refundable. If I have to cancel for any reason you get a full refund or a replacement performer.

Are you available for events at the San Diego Convention Center or San Diego hotel venues?

Yes. I've worked major conference venues and hotel ballrooms throughout San Diego including the Gaylord Pacific Resort and Convention Center. I know how those rooms work and what they require. Send me your venue details when you reach out.
