I hired Zach to perform at my husbands 80th birthday party that was done in a private room at Morton's Steak House. I hired him to do close-up magic at each table and I have gotten so many compliments from everyone. He was very entertaining. I had one children's table and he started there and kept them very engaged, they loved him. I forgot to mention that he is also a comic. I have aleady given out his number to a several of my guests that would want to hire him in the future. I know he also does a show, but I needed a close-up magician.Hire him, you won't be sorry!!!!

I wanted unique entertainment at my wedding reception, and I was intrigued when Zach responded to my search for bids. An exchange of texts and a phone call confirmed this could work, and we confirmed his performance.
Highlights:
- super easy to work with and he accommodated my short-notice search and close-in booking (this is SO awesome and such a relief for event coordinators and event planners)
- cost was comparable to other performers, and his responsiveness is impressive
- offers a money-back guarantee so that eased any concerns
- has a sense of humor
- ALL my guests that saw him perform thought he was amazing. I don't think a lot of wedding receptions have magicians, but they should--I liked this monumentally more than a photo booth!
- while all guests get a special gift at the event when he performs, his special souvenir for the bride and groom (me) was really cool and my wife still wonders how he pulled off the trick...

Thanks for making my reception memorable, Zach! We look forward to seeing you perform again at the Magic Castle! More...

I hired Zach Waldman for our company's annual sales meetings because he advertises this as his specialty.

He did not disappoint!

The evening began with a cocktail hour. Zach performed elegant up close tricks with coins, cards, and other items.

He has a way of being unobtrusive so none of the guests felt like their conversations were being invaded. This is a complaint I've heard with magicians I hired in the past, but not with Zach. The main difference was that the guests approached him, instead of the other way around.

After dinner, Zach performed a stage show for the group. We had 300 attendees in the banquet room and every single one of them laughed and applauded the entire 45 minutes.

I can recommend, without reservation, Zach Waldman for your next corporate event. He was charming, his magic was elegant, and his humor was appropriate for our company-culture. Trust me, bankers can be very stiff, and Zach made them laugh without ever crossing a line or being offensive. No easy feat!

Well done Zach! More...

Zach Waldman is inarguably the best Magician at The Magic Castle. His close-up magic is absolutely, undeniably, mind-blowing! Truly spectacular! You owe it to yourself to see his incredible illusions. You can see him at Busby's West on Friday night's, and if you are as blown-away by his magic as I was, he can be hired for private parties and corporate events -- he's a true crowd pleaser and Master Magician! A tour de force! More...

Zach might in fact be a wizard. He came to perform at a Father's day dinner for my dad and ~15 or so friends and family.

Thank you Jordan! Your group was awesome!

I got to see Zach perform at a small corporate event and he was awesome. Perfect mix of comedy and magic - he had us all paying very close attention, thinking we were going to see through the 'magic' and guess the trick. Well, turns out, magic is real. Great show, great performer. Would recommend. More...

I hired Zach to perform at an annual corporate event with about 250 guests. Based on my conversations with him leading up to the party, I was confident that he'd mix well with our crowd and provide a unique touch that we hadn't experienced in previous years. Zach arrived promptly on schedule and was quick to set up and get started. I think our guests were a bit unsure what to expect at first, but he quickly drew in a crowd and kept partygoers engaged throughout the day. I wish I could've spent more time enjoying his act, but what I did see was amazing! He's the perfect mix of magician and entertainer--we really got a kick out of his sense of humor. It's been two weeks now and people are still talking about it. You won't regret booking him! More...

I hired Zach to come entertain at my engagement party.  It was an elegant affair so I wanted to be extra careful not to offset the balance by hiring anyone "zany" or cheesy.  Zach was THE BEST.  He stayed for about 2 hours and did slight of hand magic (which was exactly what i had wanted).  He blew our guests minds and they all talked about it for days afterwards.  Furthermore, he was well-dressed, punctual, professional and charming.I would absolutely hire him again in a minute if the occasion calls for it!

Zach was the finale of an epic birthday party for me that I had in 2016. I had all of my friends come in for a night that included plot twists, scavenger hunt, and surprise family member guests - only to culminate at a house with a portrait artist, live band, mixologist, and magician. Zach stole the show with his comedy and magic, performing various tricks for small groups but saving his best for last. Many of my friends (all over 21) came to him multiple time to watch his tricks and guess the secret but all were repeatedly impressed, including me. Haha his ability to do magic while entertaining a rowdy crowd and driving momentum with his comedy was incredibly solid. Definitely recommend! More...

Truly one of the best magicians I've personally seen. Zach is one of kind and definitely keeps the crowd engaged.

I'm uniquely qualified to write this review, since not only am I a professional magician working in the Los Angeles area, but I've known Zach for well over a dozen years. During that time we have worked together countless times providing world-class magic entertainment for our clients. He's also consistently been one of my Go-To guys when I need to recommend another magician for an event. From strolling close-up magic at a cocktail party to an after-dinner stage show, I know i can trust Zach to put on a phenomenal performance that is guaranteed to elicit an enthusiastic response from my clients. There are a lot of magicians to choose from on Yelp, but most are more suitable for children's parties.  If you're looking for a fun and edgy performance for an adult crowd, you can't go wrong with Zach Waldman.

Zach conducts his business very professionally and puts on a great show. We hired him for a backyard party with 45 kids or so, he kept everyone in rapt attention with the magic show, he used funny props, even had fire and goody bags for the kids. Strong balloon animal skills, as well. We had him back for a second party where he did close-up magic to groups of adults indoors, it was quite entertaining. He has a great sense of humor and knows how to get people laughing. More...

Hands-down one of my favorite magicians in LA. And that's coming from another magician who's totally jaded from seeing too much magic in my day. He's seriously one of the most incredible, professional, hilarious guys out there. He does it all: close-up, stage, and does a ton of exclusive private parties and corporate events. And he does it well. It makes sense that he's a go-to for tons of celebrities  He's what I would call a new-school magician- someone who cares as much about the magic as he does about the entertainment itself.Long story short, he's one of the few pros I can rely on to kick ass and blow minds at any event I send his way.

Zach recently performed at a party I had at my house (a fundraiser for my daughter's school) and he was amazing.   As his website says, he is the easiest entertainer to work with - I filled out a request on his website and he called back quickly - we then finalized all the arrangements within an hour.  He performed close-up magic and his sense of humor and magic skills were a huge hit.  The party was on a Saturday night and my guests were still talking about him on Monday morning.   I have not had great luck with magicians in the past but Zach totally changed that.  I will keep him at the top of my list for future events!
