Find out why Dan is
“Silicon Valley’s Favorite Magician” and has been dubbed the “Billionaire’s Magician” by Business Insider.

Dan has been secretly working on Bay Area Dinner Show for many years. Dan rarely displayed the routines you will see at his dinner show, as these routines are best showcased in a controlled theatrical environment. “When working at private parties there were always unknown elements and other problems. With all these venues, I’ve selected routines that fit the venue. I love creating bespoke experiences.” His secretive nature surrounding these prized effects made these pieces a recherche sighting. He jealously guarded these secrets and only displayed them at only at the most distinguished events. These intimate close-up miracles were at times witnessed only by the elite at the most influential events he’s been called to perform at. As a result, many have thought these feats were only myths. As a result, these moments became legendary.

Experience a revolutionary concept in entertainment with the Bay Area Dinner Show – an intimate blend of world-class entertainment and fine dining.

Growing up in San Francisco, Dan Chan developed a passion for fine dining and has since dined at many Michelin-starred restaurants across the globe, including Manresa, COMMIS, Chez TJ, Plumed Horse, Spruce, T’ang Court, Jean-Georges, and the Village Pub. Drawing from his experience of staging entertainment at Michelin-rated venues such as Petit Crenn, Lazy Bear, COI, and Californios, Dan recognized that his entertainment did not always fit within these venues.

To bridge this gap, Dan created a new show that seamlessly blends with the most popular fine dining environments. He has since customized intimate shows for high-profile clients at Nisei, the Plumed Horse, E & O, Michael Mina’s Arcadia, and other prestigious venues.

Dan’s ultimate vision is to merge his experience in fine dining with entertainment to create a once-in-a-lifetime experience. With the Bay Area Dinner Show, Dan has created a unique and unforgettable dining and entertainment experience.
