Hundreds of Montreal companies across every major industry have trusted John Vincelli to entertain their guests.
The cocktail hour is one of the highest-value moments of any corporate event. Guests are arriving, introductions are being made, and the energy of the evening is still forming. This is exactly when close-up magic creates its biggest impact.
John moves through the room performing directly to your guests, group to group, with close-up magic and mentalism that happens right in their hands. From card work to mind reading, each interaction is intimate, personal, and impossible to explain. Guests who have never met are suddenly laughing together, replaying what just happened, and asking each other if they saw what they saw.
No stage. No sound system. No disruption to your venue or timeline. Just one of Montreal's most trusted corporate magicians working the room and making every guest feel like the show was performed just for them.
Ideal for: cocktail receptions, networking events, client dinners, holiday parties, and any format where guests are mingling.
When your event calls for a centerpiece moment, the Corporate Magic & Mentalism Show delivers. John takes the floor for a fully interactive performance that brings your entire audience together in one shared experience. No passive watching, no awkward silences, just a room full of people genuinely astonished.
The show is built for corporate audiences. It is clean, inclusive, and designed to work for every generation in the room, from the newest hire to the CEO. No politics, nothing edgy, nothing that leaves anyone on the outside. The humour lands. The mentalism genuinely unsettles. And the finale brings every person in the room to the same moment of disbelief at the same time.
Every show is fully interactive, drawing participants from the audience throughout. The experience feels spontaneous and unrehearsed because most of it is. John reads the room in real time and adapts to the energy of your specific audience, which means no two shows are ever the same.
Ideal for: gala dinners, awards nights, holiday parties, annual conferences, team-building events, and client appreciation evenings.
Why choose between mingling magic and a full show when you can have both? The Full Experience pairs John's signature cocktail-hour magic with the Corporate Show after dinner, creating two distinct moments of astonishment that carry the energy of your event from the very first arrival to the unforgettable finale.
This is the package companies choose when they want their event to feel extraordinary from start to finish. Guests are wowed during the cocktail hour, and just when they think the magic is over, the evening delivers something even bigger.
Every guest, from the head table to the back of the room, will be touched by the performance at some point during the evening. And when the night ends, they leave with a shared experience that no keynote, DJ, or photo booth can replicate.
Two distinct moments of astonishment. One unforgettable evening.
Close-up magic and mentalism work exceptionally well at cocktail receptions, gala dinners, holiday parties, awards nights, client appreciation events, annual conferences, team-building evenings, and fundraisers. John Vincelli performs in two formats: mingling magic during the cocktail hour, moving through the room performing inches from your guests, and a structured Magic & Mentalism Show for seated audiences after dinner. The two can also be combined into a single evening. Whether the event is an intimate client dinner for 30 or a large-scale gala for 300 or more, there's a format that fits.
Yes, and that's something John Vincelli takes seriously. Every performance is clean, inclusive, and designed to work for every generation in the room, from the newest hire to the CEO. There's nothing political, nothing edgy, and nothing that leaves anyone feeling excluded. The humour is sharp but universally accessible, and the mentalism is genuinely unsettling in the best way.
John Vincelli performs fully in both English and French. During the cocktail hour, he naturally adapts to whichever language each group is speaking, moving seamlessly between the two throughout the room. For the after-dinner show, the performance is delivered in one language (English or French), chosen in advance based on your audience, so every moment lands with full impact.
