John Cassidy
Magician Extraordinaire


John Cassidy is an award-winning comedy magician and balloon sculptor with a quirky style. Best known for his whimsical balloon creations, he is equally at home entertaining both adults and children. As the distinguished Guinness World Recordholder for Most Balloon Sculptures Completed in One Hour (would you believe 494??), John’s unusual talent has earned him guest appearances on several television programs including “The CBS Early Show”, “The Weakest Link”, and “Martha Stewart Living”.

His offbeat magic act has received rave reviews at the prestigious Magic Castle in Hollywood, California, the Off-Broadway production “Monday Night Magic” in New York City, and as the opening act for the “Amazing Jonathan Show” at both the Flamingo and Golden Nugget Hotels and Casinos in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Genii Magazine
“John Cassidy stole the show with this comedy balloon act. Cassidy’s comedy and banter is sheer genius. As an audience, we were laughing so hard that breathing became difficult. His climax of jumping into a giant six foot diameter balloon to find a spectator’s chosen card is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. He brought the house down with a standing ovation.”

The Electronic Grymoire
“I was, to tell the truth, not looking forward to watching a set by a guy who makes balloon animals…but I was astonished, amazed and amused by the extraordinary talents of John Cassidy, another human powerhouse, and the holder of the Guinness World Record for Most Balloon Sculptures Completed in One Hour...."
