As Seen On ABC’s
We do all kinds of private events — birthday parties, corporate events, team building, bachelorette parties, holiday parties, charity fundraisers, and more. If you can dream it, we can theme it!
Our private shows work best with groups of 20 or more guests. We can accommodate groups of all sizes — from intimate gatherings to large corporate events of several hundred people.
Almost anywhere! We can come to your home, office, a restaurant, a banquet hall, a bar — you name it. As long as there's enough space for your guests and our performers, we can make it work.
We recommend booking at least 4-6 weeks in advance to ensure availability and give us enough time to perfect your show. For large events or peak dates, booking earlier is better.
Private shows typically run two to two and a half hours. This can be adjusted based on your event needs — just let us know when you inquire.
We provide the entertainment — you provide the food! We can work with your chosen venue or caterer to coordinate timing so the show flows seamlessly with your meal.
Fill out the inquiry form on this page or give us a call at (888) 643-2583. Our party planning experts will put together a custom quote based on your group size, location, and event details.
