Booking FAQs

How do I book your services?
To book our entertainment, fill out our inquiry form. We’ll start with a consultation to understand your needs, provide pricing options, and secure your talent with a deposit.

Where are you based, and do you travel?
Our main base is in southeastern MA, with teams in New York, southern Florida, Hawaii, and southern California. We’re happy to travel for your event, with travel costs covered. We are also passport-ready for international events.

When should I book entertainment for my event?
The earlier, the better! Early booking ensures the best rates and a wider selection of talent and costumes. For custom costumes or choreography, book at least 1-2 months in advance to allow for creation and rehearsal.

What factors determine your pricing?
Pricing depends on talent availability, service demand, skill level, risk, permits, travel, costumes, equipment, rehearsals, management, and performance duration. Expect a 25-50% increase for major holidays like New Year’s Eve and Halloween.

Do you accept tips?
Yes, we encourage tipping your performers. Please give tips directly to the performer at the event’s end.

How do I pay, and is a deposit required?
A deposit is required to secure your date, with full payment due two weeks before the event. We accept mailed checks and online credit card payments. All payments are non-refundable.

Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! We now offer payment plans via AfterPay. Ask about this option in your inquiry.

What if it rains or we have bad weather on the event day?
We offer rain dates for outdoor performances. A 20% fee of the total price is charged for reserving a rain date, which is non-refundable. Notify us 24 hours before the original event time if the rain date is needed. The second date is billed in full, regardless of weather. If no rain date is purchased and the event is canceled due to weather, we will not reschedule.

Entertainment FAQs

How long are your performances?
Performance lengths vary by event type and goals. Featured acts are 3-5 minutes, featured shows are 10-60 minutes, and strolling entertainment is hourly. We offer options to fit all needs.

What types of entertainment do you provide?
We offer four main types of performances:

  • Ambient: Performers positioned around the venue, enhancing ambiance.
  • Strolling: Performers mingle and interact with guests, creating immersive experiences.
  • Featured Act: A specific act performed to a chosen song, lasting 3-7 minutes.
  • Featured Show: A longer performance with a set playlist, lasting 10-60 minutes.

How do your hologram dancers work?
Send us an image or logo, and we’ll program it into our Visual Poi, creating light trails that display your image. This can include logos or custom images. Ask for photos to see the full effect.

Venue FAQs

Will your stilt walkers or aerial rigs damage the venue floors?
No, our stilt walkers have rubber non-marking bottoms, and our aerial rigs use non-marking pads. We also cover them with decor for a seamless finish.

Can I have an aerialist at my venue?
We offer various rig sizes to fit most venues. Lollipop rigs require at least 8x8x8′ space, while larger rigs need 20x20x20′. For ceiling installations, we use riggers familiar with aerial performances to ensure safety.

Do I need to provide anything for the performers on the event day?
Yes, a green room is required for preparation, breaks, and storage. It should be out of guest sight, near the performance area, and have a locking door and electrical outlet. If unavailable, we offer a walled pop-up changing area for $500. Additionally, provide water and a vegetarian meal for performers booked for 3+ hours.
