Company receptions and holiday parties
Strolling magic gets small groups laughing and talking while the event continues around them.
Corporate events, conventions and brand work in San Diego
San Diego corporate magic that gets guests into the action.
David Bonfadini has spent more than 30 years learning how to make a room react. In San Diego, that can mean close-up magic during a reception, a live show for the company, a trade show interaction, or a product built into the effect.
The point is not to fill time. It is to give people a real experience together and give your brand a moment they want to talk about.
Plan around the event
From cocktail hour to convention floor.
San Diego events can range from a company holiday party to a large conference with guests moving between sessions. Strolling magic works when the room needs energy without a hard stop. A live show works when everyone should share the same experience. Trade show magic works when the booth needs attention and a natural handoff to the team.
For brand activations, David can develop a reveal around the product rather than performing next to it. If cameras are part of the plan, the live idea and video deliverables can be designed together so the content does not feel like an afterthought.
Share the audience, schedule, venue, and desired outcome. The team will recommend the format and spell out what is included.

San Diego event and audience hosting
Make participation feel natural, not forced.
David co-hosted AFV’s Prank Academy with Rachel Mueller. The on-camera role relied on reactions, timing, humor, and a format the audience could follow.
For San Diego producers and event planners, David is available to discuss select event and on-camera hosting for brand experiences, product moments, creator programs, games, challenges, and audience-participation concepts that fit his verified experience.
Magic can support the hosting concept when it has a purpose. The proposal keeps performance, creative development, rehearsal, filming, usage rights, and distribution clear.
