Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some common questions about our seasonal events and how they work for your venue.
What seasonal events do you run?
We create entertainment programmes for all major seasons and holidays throughout the year. Our most popular seasonal events include Halloween celebrations with spooky entertainment and costume competitions, magical Christmas programmes featuring festive shows and character meet-and-greets, vibrant summer festivals with outdoor activities and concerts, and Easter celebrations with egg hunts and spring-themed crafts. We also design themed weekend breaks and special celebration events that can run at any time of year, such as superhero weekends, princess parties, and pirate adventures.
Can events be customised for our venue?
Absolutely! Every venue is unique, and we pride ourselves on creating bespoke seasonal programmes that perfectly match your space, budget, and guest demographics. During our initial consultation, we assess your venue's facilities, understand your typical guest profile, and discuss your specific goals for seasonal entertainment. We then design a completely customised programme that works seamlessly with your existing operations. Whether you need intimate activities for a smaller venue or large-scale productions for bigger holiday parks, we adapt every aspect of our seasonal events to ensure they're perfect for your guests and your business.
How far in advance should we book seasonal events?
We recommend booking your seasonal entertainment programmes at least 3-4 months in advance to ensure the best availability and planning time. For major seasons like Christmas and summer holidays, booking 6 months ahead gives us time to create truly spectacular programmes tailored to your venue. Early booking also allows us to coordinate with your marketing team to promote the events effectively and helps you secure the dates that work best for your business calendar.
Do you provide staff training for seasonal events?
Yes, we offer comprehensive training for both our staff and your existing team members. Our training programmes cover seasonal theme delivery, age-appropriate entertainment techniques, safety procedures for seasonal activities, and guest engagement skills. We can train your permanent staff to deliver seasonal entertainment when our team isn't on-site, ensuring consistent quality throughout your seasonal programming. This training helps you maintain high standards and gives your team the confidence to create magical seasonal experiences for your guests.
