The information about the creatures is fascinating and given in a really interesting style so as to keep young ones engaged throughout. Brilliant.”

“I have had the pleasure of Fabaroony Face Painters at my daughters birthday parties on a number of occasions and cannot rate them highly enough. They use excellent quality Face Painting (I know this as usually my eldest is crying to have Face Painting off after 10 mins or so as it's bothering her but she's happy to have this on all day), they do lovely and unusual designs... Not just run of the mill. In short highly recommended!!”

“Sharon did the most amazing face paint for my daughters 10th birthday. The brief was to be cool, match the party theme (leopard) and glow under the UV lights at a roller disco and boy did she nail it. 20 very happy kids and such beautiful intricate, detailed artistry. I would highly recommend!”

FAQ

Answers to your questions about hiring a childrens entertainer.

The cost of a children's entertainer can vary depending on the location, type of entertainment, and duration of the event. On average, you can expect to pay between £100 and £300 for a 1-2 hour performance.


However, prices can range from as low as £50 for a basic package to as high as £500 or more for a premium package or a well-known performer. It's always best to get a quote directly from the entertainer or entertainment company you are interested in, as prices can vary widely based on their specific services and experience.

  • Make sure the entertainer's performance is appropriate for the age range of the children attending your event.
  • Consider the type of entertainment you want for your event. Do you want a magician, a clown, a face painter, a balloon twister, or a combination of different activities?
  • Check the entertainer's experience and reviews from previous clients
  • Ensure that the entertainer has taken appropriate safety precautions and is DBS (CRB) verified
