What does entertaining include?
Music & dancing
Every event needs music, so why not step things up a notch with live musicians and dancers? Stir emotions with a talented bagpiper, traditional drummers, or a folk guitarist and singer. Or get a DJ to mix some of the latest hits and get the dance floor going. Impress guests at your restaurant or party and hire belly dancers to mingle and dance amongst the tables. Your performers will engage the audience, encourage participation, and ensure your guests have an amazing time.
Balloons & face painting
When you’re looking to hire a children’s entertainer, you can’t go past a balloon artist and face painter. They’ll bring their own equipment, tools, and supplies, and get set up before the children arrive at the party or event. They’ll do their own setup and clean up when they’re finished. Your children’s entertainer may work for the whole of your event, or for 30-60 minutes in between other activities.
Clowns & characters
Create a special atmosphere at your next children’s party and make their dreams come true when their favourite characters turn up! A costume character entertainer or clown will do more than just get dressed up - they’ll spend the entire event acting in character to entertain and enchant guests. Characters are also a great way to add fun to your corporate event or even your business promotion!
Magic
No matter how big or small your party or event guests, they’ll love watching a magician perform tricks. Your magician will bring all their equipment and get set up ahead of time, staying in character any time a guest approaches. They’ll do a series of tricks as part of a magic show, which may include disappearing tricks, card tricks, illusions, and more. Many magicians will encourage audience involvement, moving about amongst tables, and requesting volunteers to participate. At the end of the show, they’ll pack everything up, taking care to minimise disruption to the rest of your event.

Wedding Reception DJ
$700
Melbourne VIC, Australia
26th May 2024
Hello! We are looking for an experienced and energetic DJ to make our wedding reception an unforgettable one on July 26, 2024, at the Arrow Swanston Hotel in Melbourne CBD. The event will run from 5 PM to 11 PM and will be attended by approximately 80-90 guests, mostly aged 30-40, if that would help with music choices. The evening will begin with a cocktail and canapés at 5 PM, followed by a short program and dinner, and then dancing and drinking onwards. The ideal candidate will have professional sound and light equipment and setup. No MC duties are required, as we have a friend handling that role. We are very open to suggestions and are relying on your expertise to make our wedding reception a success. Please provide references or links to any sample mixes or past performances. If you are interested and available on this date, please get in touch. We look forward to hearing from you and making our special day a night to remember! Thank you!

DJ (not MC) for ~5 hrs for a wedding reception, Fri Nov 15th, Melb VIC
$800
Fitzroy VIC, Australia
20th May 2024
Hi there! We are looking for a (non MC) straight up DJ who can BYO pioneer/deck, lighting and everything they'll need, to DJ our wedding reception on November the 15th, ~6:30pm till probably 11:30pm, St Andrews Conservatory in Fitzroy. I believe the venue has a means to jack into their sound system, hopefully via XLR connector otherwise I suppose it'll be TRS. Have to check with the venue. We want it to be a great party, beginning cocktail style and ramping up after speeches to a packed dancefloor. It's an intimate < 60 guests, mostly who are all in their late 30s to mid 40s, with a small handful of the older parents in their 60s and 70s. We have a list of songs we want and can supply you a playlist but also would like you to talk about recommendations with us due to your no doubt extensive knowledge of cross-generational bangers that will go off. I guess 90s and early 2000s are going to be hit given the age bracket that is mostly going to be there, that we can definitely mix things up. We have a small exclusion list of songs not to play as well. The wedding is cocktail party style with no sit down meals, a half hour ceremony, then after speeches the real DJ work will kick in! So we probably won't need you for the whole time we're in the venue, it'll probably be more from 6:30/7pm onwards, but that's just a guess at this point, and we would be open to you providing your thoughts and recommendations as this whole thing is very new to us, and we don't really know what to expect. So we're after someone who's had experienc at DJing wedding reception venues. We will have a separate celebrant & MC as well as the venue manager to help you co-ordinate your setup and stuff like that. Get in touch with us and let us know some costs, especially keen if you are already familiar with the venue, and happy to work with us on figuring out a playlist throughout the night starting from relaxed cocktail ramping up to a full-blown dance floor club experience. Cheers

Makeup/face paint for a surrealist themed party costume
$50
Parkville VIC, Australia
14th Dec 2023
I'm going to a party with the theme "Surrealist Spectaculare" and require someone to do some creative and bizarre makeup/face paint for a male costume. I'm not completely sure what I'll be wearing yet but I'm thinking about wearing a suit. I'm flexible on the location but prefer Melbourne inner suburbs. "The characteristics of surrealism include strange images or bizarre juxtapositions, unconsciousness as a valid reality, dream-like artwork or symbolic images, automatism techniques to create random effects, distorted figures or biomorphic shapes, depiction of perverse sexuality, and chance or spontaneity." - Due date: Needs to be done on Saturday, 16 December 2023
Jiyana took on such a unique and creative task with this request and I'm so impressed with the outcome. She managed to include an incredible amount of detail and was committed to a high level of quality :)
