What Clients Are Saying

Sun Life's Excellence Cup is their flagship annual awards night — and in 2024, they brought it to the Fairmont Vancouver with 120 guests, five speakers, and a custom trophy moment built like the Stanley Cup. Kel ran the full evening: close-up magic through the reception, MC hosting across speeches and award presentations, and a stage show that closed the program. It wasn't just an event. It was the benchmark every team lead talked about on Monday morning.

"Smiles, laughter, happy stomachs, and connection was all had thanks to you."

McDonald's brought their annual staff celebration to the Vancouver Hilton and trusted Kel Modern Magic and MC Mike Oulton to run the entire evening — two years running. Close-up magic through cocktails. MC-hosted dinner and award presentations. A 45-minute stage show built for a ballroom. Interactive team games, DJ, and karaoke to close the night. Staff walked away energized and connected. McDonald's rebooked before the confetti settled.

"A corporate entertainment package designed for maximum impact."

McCarthy & Tétrault has booked Kel five years running — and confirmed their 2026 Christmas party before the 2025 one even wrapped. Earls Yaletown Loft. Glowbal. Coast. Riley's. The venues change; the result doesn't: a room full of lawyers, partners, and senior clients who stop networking and start actually talking. When the magic happens in your hands rather than on a stage, the room changes fast. Smart firms notice. They don't switch what works.

"He absolutely crushed it." — Mel W, McCarthy & Tétrault
