The Magician, Forbes Calls ‘A Top Modern Magician’
From The White House to NFL Stadiums!

By blurring the line between illusion and reality in a groundbreaking yet personable way, Michael Grandinetti delivers a one-of-a-kind experience audiences never forget.

Named by Forbes as “a top modern magician,” Entertainment Weekly as “a great magician who can truly communicate with a TV audience,” Hidden Remote as “a fan favorite with charisma and an easy rapport with an audience,” and Digital Journal as “one of magic’s best loved magicians, the one to watch,” Michael Grandinetti transcends the traditional boundaries of magic and illusion.

With performances on national and international television, in stadiums, arenas, casinos, and theaters around the country, with Oscar-winning composers and symphony orchestras, for NFL and NBA halftime shows and major sporting events, in large-scale parades, for Fortune 500 companies, virtual events, and even at The White House, Michael has made a name for himself around the world as a talented and innovative illusionist.

With two decades of professional experience, Michael has captivated audiences across diverse venues and platforms:

Live Performances:

  • Stadiums, arenas, casinos, and theaters nationwide
  • Collaborations with Oscar-winning composers and symphony orchestras
  • NFL and NBA halftime shows and major sporting events
  • Fortune 500 corporate events and virtual corporate meetings and events
  • The White House

Television & Media:

  • Starring roles on NBC’s “The World’s Most Dangerous Magic II”
  • Five seasons of The CW’s “Masters of Illusion” (syndicated in 100+ countries)
  • POP’s “Don’t Blink”
  • Featured magic on Emmy-nominated FOX series “Bones”
  • National television appearances: “The Today Show,” “Access Hollywood,” “Entertainment Tonight,” “SportsCenter,” “NBA on TNT,” “FOX & Friends,” and “The Bold and the Beautiful”

Media Coverage: Featured in Parade Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, AXS.com, Hidden Remote, Starpulse, The Huffington Post, MAGIC Magazine, Young Hollywood, The Beverly Hills Times Magazine, and as cover story for TV Times magazine (distributed nationally). Also profiled on CNBC’s “Make It” series about success in challenging industries.

Michael holds the distinction of being the first illusionist ever invited to perform in the National Independence Day Parade in Washington, DC, where he levitated a participant high above a moving float before a live audience of 250,000 spectators. His large-scale performances include NFL halftime shows broadcast live on ESPN’s Monday Night Football and NBA playoff games that drew commentary from Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley during the live TNT broadcast.

“The Magic of Michael Grandinetti LIVE” reimagines legendary magic plots—levitation, teleportation, mind reading, and more—for contemporary audiences, making them more visual, surprising, and astounding than ever before. Rather than passive observers, audience members become active participants in an interactive experience where everyone becomes part of the magic.

Driven by a passion to make magic contemporary with mainstream appeal, Michael continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in live entertainment, creating unforgettable moments that blur the line between the impossible and reality.
