Magic Fred was awesome! From the initial inquiry he was very responsive and helpful, kept engaged in the process up to the moment before the show to ensure we were all set! Greatly appreciate how easy he made it!
Having a zoom gathering was the best way we could celebrate my kid's birthday to include family from across the US. He kept the audience engaged to the end and even personalized it which I know made the birthday kid feel extra special! Everyone enjoyed the show! Thank you!

Magic Fred was so great! He really made our outdoor backyard party for our 5yo's big day, so funny and such a great performer. He kept all the kids on the edge of their seats (which means running all over the place and jumping up and down screaming in amazement for more) and the adults giggling/smiling/laughing through the whole show. Super professional and we highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing show! Magic Fred had 25 kids full attention and excitement for the entire show! Many parents asked me where we had discovered Magic Fred given how impressive his show was. I would recommend this show to anyone - the kids and the parents were fully entertained! Great experience all around!

We had Magic Fred do a virtual birthday party for my 6 and 8 year old. Initially they weren’t thrilled about having a Zoom party but once he got started they were delighted. All of the kids were belly laughing and super engaged the whole time. They are still practicing the magic tricks that Magic Fred taught them. He was responsive and easy to deal with and accommodating when I had to change the date. If you’re looking for a unique party idea, check out Magic Fred!

Magic Fred performed at our childcare center today. He was amazing! The children ranged in age from 1 to 6. They all loved him. Their laughs said it all! Fred was so talented and so funny. The staff agreed that we will have Magic Fred back very soon!
