- Cindy L2 contributionsDon’t Miss This One!Go see this show! You won’t be disappointed. It will blow your mind. We met Mr Da Silva after the performance and I was blown away by how welcoming and kind he was. Just a class act all the way around. I was also incredibly impressed with the staff at the theater. The person scanning tickets, the bartender (probably should get him some help), the ushers — all of them were very nice and helpful. Someone kicked my husband’s full beer over and we were like, okay, there goes about $20 bucks. Next thing we know, an employee walks over and whispers, “can I bring you a new drink.” And he did - at no charge! Bottom line - go see the show! It has a ton of 5 stars for a reason.Visited December 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 11 December 2023
- Carol MHonolulu, Hawaii130 contributionsUnbelievable… Prepare To Be Blown Away!WOW! Mind blowing! This is an excellent show, well worth seeing. My daughter is very into energy, hypnosis, mentalists, etc… so I picked this show primarily for her. I wasn’t prepared to be as impressed as I was, as I am generally quite skeptical. I highly recommend this show, and especially if you are a skeptic. I thoroughly enjoyed it. We sat in front row center, and loved our seats. However, if you want to have a chance to be picked to participate, your chances may be better if you sit toward the sides, front row to midway back. The picks were totally random, but you are unlikely to catch a frisbee or ball if you are front and center.Visited December 2023Travelled with familyWritten 22 December 2023
- Nadine ZGlendale, Arizona17 contributionsGreat show, interactive and so much fun!I went to the show with my fiancé, daughter and her best friend. Wow Frederic is a one in a million, likable and charismatic performer. We did a lot of research and read so many great reviews - so happy we chose this show! Frederic was engaging and entertaining and he truly loves what he does. He tells a story and shows pictures from when he was a little boy and how he grew up studying and perfecting his act. Everyone in the audience was amazed and wow what great crowd participation. The entire audience jumped to their feet to give a standing ovation and loud applause! Go to this show!!Visited December 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 31 December 2023
- Irene DComox, Canada82 contributionsAmazing. Highly Recommend It!I was a skeptic. I decided early in the evening that I wouldn't be fooled. That I would watch his hands so I could see where he was going to switch out a card. But nope! I am a skeptic no more. This guy is so good and had the whole audience amazed and entertained from beginning to end. Worth every penny. I went because I value the Trip Advisor ratings people give, and they were very high for this show. Once again, Trip Advisor, you have come through for me!!Visited January 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 8 January 2024
- Sara G20 contributionsPhenomenal performanceI’m extremely difficult to impress but went to the show for my husband since he likes magic shows. I was absolutely floored, impressed is an understatement we were thoroughly entertained. Presentation and entertainment was extraordinary. Thank you can’t wait to see your show again!Visited February 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 2 February 2024
- Damian L2 contributionsStunned!!My girls and I took a trip to Vegas to visit family. We planned to take in a handful of family friendly shows like Blueman Group, Jabbawockeez and Cirque "O". And we loved them all! On the final day, we wanted to take in a magic show and spontaneously grabbed seats to see Frederic. My gosh!! WE LOVED IT! From start to finish the show was mind blowing. Truly. And after the show he even stuck around to say hi to the audience and show them a personal trick. Which blew our minds even further! I have never seen or experienced anything like it. And as soon as the curtain fell, I was ready to go back in and see it a second time. MUST SEE! Sidenote: Frederic himself is a truly charming entertainer. You can tell he has a genuine passion for his craft and sharing it with the audience he loves. Totally family friendly. And incredible. We will be back.Visited August 2024Travelled with familyWritten 22 August 2024
- ElleJaycee8414 contributionsA must see in Vegas!I don't know how he does it but he's amazing! He doesn't use assistants in his show. How he's able to pull off his tricks are baffling. He told me to pick a word from a book but don't tell him the word. He guessed it accurately and in the coolest way possible. He's incredible. 10/10 recommend his show!Visited September 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 15 September 2024

My girlfriend and I attended his show on 1/28/22. My girlfriend was so excited that she caught the frisbee to participate in the last trick. Then the magician said only gentlemen are allowed to participate in the last trick. So we reluctantly passed it to a guy in our row cause we're both women. It turns out the only reason why only men were allowed to participate in the last trick are because he needs a woman's name to be the name of the first person you were ever in love with. So my girlfriend would've qualified, but was not allowed to continue. He treated me and my girlfriend like we don't exist, he implied to the entire audience that gay people do not exist. We watched the rest of that trick practically fuming.
So afterwards we went up and talked to the magician, Frederic, at the meet & greet. We told him that we and gay people in general were excluded by the intro to that trick. He admitted to us that MANY PEOPLE have complained to him over the years about the intro to this trick. (he's been doing this trick for something like 15 years). He has still not changed the intro of that trick. We suggested he say "only people whose first love was a woman can participate in this one" to make it inclusive. Easy fix. We feel maybe he is more afraid of making straight people in the audience uncomfortable than he is afraid of making queer people in the audience uncomfortable. Prioritizing homophobes over queer people. That's not ok.
So the next day we found his email address and sent him an email about it, telling our story once again and asking what he will do to make this trick more queer-inclusive in the future. It has been two weeks and he has not replied. We also emailed Caesar's palace which said they respond in 5-7 days, and it has now been 12 days and they have also not replied.
This might sound like a small thing but it is big to us. Do not treat queer people like we do not exist. Period.

UNBELIEVABLE! This show will leave you AMAZED and is truly entertaining. I went on stage during the show and everything that I wrote down( in a hidden place where there was no camera overhead) and sealed in an envelope, he was right on everything with me as well as each person that came on stage. It’s impossible to explain. You MUST go to his show. I promise it will be something you remember forever.

I was skeptical after seeing another magician on our trip as everyone I spoke to claimed there were “plants” in the crowd. However, during Frederic’s show I was asked to choose a number for his final act which he guessed correctly. I was blown away by his act and highly recommend that everyone go if they want to see real magic. He’s also funny and seems like a really nice person who cares about his fans. I will definitely be coming back to see him again on our next trip!

Frederik Da Silva is an amazing talent who entertains the whole time he is on stage! His unique talent to read your mind and tell you what you have been thinking is unbelievable but you end up believing every thing he presents on stage. Time after time his ability to read your thoughts through numbers, images, and then be able to influence your physical motion is almost beyond comprehension. If you are to see one show in Vegas that deals with magic or illusion or the ability to read ones mind you must see Paranormal- The Mind Reading Magic show at Bally's. Bennett and Pat really enjoyed it too!

My family of 13 had the pleasure of seeing this show on Black Friday. We had all ages from 8-85 and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it! Frederic was extremely entertaining and personable. We went to get his autograph after the show and he gave my family our own private magic show!!! My family is still talking about his show and our experience. You will not regret buying a ticket to this show!

This show was amazing from start to finish and had me sitting on the edge of my seat. There is lots of audience participation so definitely not using plants. The things he knows are mind blowing. This show is reasonably priced and worth every penny. I would highly recommend it to anyone going to Vegas.

On this trip I went to Cirque shows, all kinds of rides and things, but THIS SHOW, to me, was the most memorable and incredible thing I experienced. I don’t know how he does this, but he really does read people’s minds. Lots of people, all chosen at random from the crowd. Go and see, and try to figure it out. He will blow your mind

Frederic’s show was absolutely amazing. I am supremely impressed with his performance, style, audience participation, and unbelievable “mentalist” skills. He truly engaged with the crowd and created an intimate and captivating experience. I’m going to bring more friends next time so they can experience it too!

Wow! Wow and wow! A must see show. We came in to Bally's and a small theater, feeling a little skeptical and were quickly blown away by what Frederic could do. He involved the audience from the very beginning and all throughout and impressed us with every act he did. We have never seen anything like it. Highly recommend this show. Not to be missed!

Excited to attend. Going for a bachlorette party, is there a list or way to request the bride to be picked?

Hello !
The selection of volonteers is totally uncontrolable by throwing frisbees.
However , if any of your group got catches one, he/she can pass it to the bride !
There are lots of opportunities during the show. Don t miss the meet and greet too. At this time you can ask a quick trick for the bride too.
You ll love Paranormal !

Hi Frederic! You said you read each of the reviews so thought I’d leave you a quick message. My son and I were just having a convo about your show (you probably already knew that-haha) and how incredible it is. I’ve seen and met you twice and hope to again soon! You’re definitely worth a trip to Vegas!! :)

What is the best location for seats ? VIP ?
Are your seats reserved ? or first come first serve ?
If you get VIP do you then "fight" the other VIP people for seats ?
How soon do you need to get in line if it is all general admission ?

I have seen the show before but staying at Ballys this time do hotel guests get a discount on the show ?

Yes. Hotel customers guests get two for one tickets for paranormal.
If you don’t get one when you register with the hotel whith your hotel keys you can ask the staff at the front desk for these coupons.

Is this show appropriate for a 3 year old? Would we need to buy a full price ticket for him?
Written 7 October 2018

The show is not suitable for children under 6.
However it s totally clean, familly friendly. Your child might just not understand what is happening on stage.
For as long as children are quiet and don t disturb the performance, we usually accept them in the showroom.
