The David Farr Promise
When you book me, you’re trusting me with your guests and your reputation. So here’s my promise:
Nobody is the joke.
Anyone who helps me on stage is the star of the moment, not the punchline, and goes back to their seat looking good.
Clean from start to finish.
No swearing, no innuendo, no put-downs. Nothing I wouldn’t do in front of your CEO, your best client or your grandmother.
Professional in every room.
Respectful of your guests, your staff and your schedule, from the moment I arrive until I leave.
You look good for hiring me.
The question you’ll hear afterwards isn’t “Who booked this guy?” It’s “How do I book him?”

What David's Clients Are Saying...
FROM A COMPANY CONFERENCE AFTER-PARTY
“David performed at the after-party of our company conference, and was absolutely incredible! He was easy to work with through the booking process, and became the highlight of the evening. He had an attentive audience all night, and the dramatic reactions could be heard across the ballroom.”
Jessica Peterka, Google review
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.
5 stars all the way, David
baffles the whole group!
What he accomplishes is
truly Magical. I would highly
recommend him for any
group. Thanks for going
above and beyond!
We had an amazing time
and a lot of positive comments regarding the show! We were able to raise over 250K for Brave Kids Bold Cures with David’s help!
Just hired David for a corporate holiday party. He was awesome! Everyone at the party enjoyed his close up magic. David is very professional, animated and loves working a crowd!
David did an amazing job entertaining and stunning the team with his magic. He has a naturally friendly personality that easily engages and entertains people. He performs a wide variety of magic tricks, excellent for gatherings of groups that form at parties. He’s one of the best in his craft, I highly recommend him.
I can’t say enough about David. We hired him for a corporate event AND for a separate fundraiser event and he hit it 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.
David Farr is the real deal. I would highly recommend him for any corporate or engagement event that you want your employees or attendees to remember! He interacts and ensures that everybody is having fun! Include David Farr in your event if you want people to laugh and have FUN!!!!!
We had David at our Chick-fil-A Christmas Party, and with team members ranging from ages 14 to 85, that’s no small feat. David truly shined with every age group. Throughout the night, I kept hearing loud gasps and cheers as he strolled and performed his magic, and his full show was just as impressive. Thank you, David, for helping make our Christmas party so memorable.
David did an amazing job entertaining our members at our annual Halloween brunch! He is a fabulous entertainer for both adults and kids -- also so great to work with, we love having him here! Thanks David!
This is our second time having David Farr at our team holiday event for Ethos Dental and he was ABSOLUTELY MIND-BLOWING! David took our team event to a whole new level with nonstop energy, huge reaction, and jaw-dropping surprises. Just when you thought it couldn't get any crazier-BOOM! Our room was buzzing with laughter, shock and excitement. People are still talking about it! If you want your team event or really any event to be unforgettable, hire David Farr Magic!
I hired David to perform at my wife's birthday party since she's been asking to see him literally for years. He did NOT disappoint! He captivated our entire party from the moment he walked through the door! Adults and kids alike, we're still trying to figure out how he did everything! We'll definitely bring him back! Highly, highly recommend David!
I saw David at an office party and decided to book him for a large event we were hosting to launch the winter season in Minneapolis. He was excellent the first time and did not fail to impress the second time either. So much good feedback and a great performer.
David was great at our chamber event! He engaged with the audience during the social hour with close up magic which added something nice to the event - his on stage act was excellent! Never missed a beat and always amazed the crowd.
As the event coordinator I especially appreciated the pre-call to make sure we were thinking of those things that would make the night go off without a hitch and it did.
David is the BEST magician in Minneapolis. I truly appreciate his dedication to the craft. I hired him for a trade show and he was stellar. Everybody was incredibly impressed with his talent. He had a wide variety of tricks. Hire this guy!!
We hosted an internal virtual event for our employees and we brought David Farr on for the entertainment portion. He was extremely professional, responsive and had a great attitude. He left our audience with the "wow factor" as his tricks were unbelievable. We still aren't sure how he does his magic tricks! It was such a cool experience and we hope to use him in the future. Thank you, David, for such a great experience! Our employees can't stop talking about it!
We had David entertain the crowd at my in-law's 50th anniversary party on a St. Croix riverboat. How was he? Well, let me put it this way: Several people in attendance asked me for his contact info to book him for future events. He was great and everyone loved that we had him for the afternoon.
Thanks David!
