October 27, 2025Awesome entertainer!
We had LeLando at our daughter’s fourth birthday party, and he was absolutely incredible! He made the most adorable balloon animals and creations, expertly managed to keep a room full of excited kids completely engaged the entire time. His energy, humor, and kindness made the whole experience feel magical — both the kids and adults were entertained. Everyone left smiling (and with their own non-weapon balloon masterpiece!). Highly recommend Lo Lando for any party, he truly made the day unforgettable! 🎈💫

August 11, 2025Captivating
We had the absolute pleasure of having a magician at our baby shower, and he was truly magical in every sense of the word! From the moment he arrived—traveling to be with us, no less—his positive energy lit up the entire party. He immediately connected with everyone, making it a point to meet each guest, which added such a personal and thoughtful touch.
The kids (especially the 3-year-olds) were completely mesmerized—their jaws dropped more than once! But it wasn’t just for the little ones; the adults were just as amazed and entertained. He found the perfect balance between playful and mind-blowing, making it a truly inclusive experience.
What really stood out was how he went the extra mile to make the event special. He even prepared a custom trick just for us—the new parents—which was both touching and impressive. It was such a memorable moment, and one we’ll always cherish.
Even after the show ended, guests were buzzing about his performance. We’ve all been talking about it since! If you’re looking for someone to add unforgettable magic to your event, look no further. Highly, highly recommended!

Price range: $150 and up
What to expect
Before we book your event, I will ask you plenty of questions, to be sure that I am the right entertainer for your event, and to be sure that I know exactly what you want. By the time your event arrives, you'll know exactly what to expect. Most importantly, I know that my job is not nearly as much about the magic of sleight-of-hand as it is the magic of helping your guests have the best time possible. And in the end, that's exactly what you can expect!
About
Lelando has been performing for audiences for the better part of four decades! His experiences include countless hours on stage as an actor, musician, and emcee, long before he ever took up magic. As such, he is not just another magician and balloon twister, he is a true entertainer and performer, who blends these skills into an unforgettable experience.
Additional booking notes
If we are booking a stage-show, please communicate with me about your venue and what items you already have on-hand for Lighting, Sound, and Staging.
If the venue has its own sound system and an operator (sound tech), I'll need the ability to plug in a wireless mic system (XLR preferred, 1/4" capable) and an MP3 player (1/8" Stereo headphone-style plug).
If the venue cannot provide sound, I can bring my own small PA system, which will comfortably support an audience of up to ~100 people.
As noted elsewhere, for stage shows, I require a space approximately 10' wide and 6' deep. Your 'Stage' doesn't necessarily have to be a real stage; it can be one end of your living room or patio, and I can bring my own curtain backdrop. If you are uncertain, contact me to discuss the area (sending photos of the space will help, too), so we can make sure I'm prepared with a show that will work in your space!
Setup requirements
When performing a stage show, I don't actually require a real stage, per se. If your event is in the home or office, it could be as simple as being one end of a room.
