Who Is Vincent?

I’m Vincent La Padula — a professional magician, storyteller, and award-nominated performer who loves creating those “did that really just happen?” moments. I was recognized as a Top 8 international finalist for Close-Up Magician of the Year, but my favorite title is still “the magician everyone’s talking about on the drive home.”

Before stepping fully into magic, I spent years as a corporate executive, morning radio personality, and ministry leader. That mix of backgrounds means I understand boardrooms and ballrooms, church basements and black-tie galas — and I know how to read a room, keep things clean, and make you look good in front of your guests.

At your event, I’m not just “doing tricks.” I’m creating shared experiences:

• Close-up & walk-around magic that happens right in your guests’ hands
• Parlor shows that feel intimate, interactive, and story-driven
• Stage magic that blends bold illusions, humor, and audience participation

I’m based near Baltimore and perform throughout Maryland, Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and Delaware for corporate events, weddings, private celebrations, fundraisers, and community events. Wherever I’m performing, the goal is the same: bring joy, spark curiosity, and remind people that wonder is real.
