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.

Magician + Kids’ Disco Entertainer for 10th Birthday – Port Melbourne
$200
Port Melbourne VIC 3207, Australia
10th Aug 2026
We’re looking for a fun, confident and engaging magician/entertainer for our son’s 10th birthday party in Port Melbourne. There will be approximately 12 boys, all aged 10. They’re a fairly mature and energetic group, so we’re looking for someone who can really capture their attention with impressive magic, clever tricks, humour, audience participation and some genuinely cool “how did you do that?!” moments. 🎩 Magic Show • Start time: 4:45pm • Duration: Approximately 40 minutes • Location: Port Melbourne • Guests: 12 boys, all around 10 years old We’d love the performance to be interactive and age-appropriate without feeling too young or childish. Close-up magic, mind-reading/mentalism-style tricks, card tricks, illusions and getting the boys involved would all be great. 🪩 Kids’ Disco – Additional 40 Minutes Following the magic show, we’d love the entertainer to run a fun, high-energy kids’ disco for approximately 40 minutes. We already have a speaker at the location, so there is no need to provide a sound system. Ideally, you would bring kids’ disco/party lights or a small lighting setup to create a great party atmosphere and take the lead in keeping the boys involved. We’re looking for more than simply playing music — we’d love someone who can get them up and involved with music, dancing, fun games, challenges or competitions suitable for a group of confident 10-year-old boys. Please let us know: • Your experience entertaining children around 9–12 years old • What your 40-minute magic show typically includes • Whether you can also run the additional 40-minute disco • Whether you can provide disco/party lighting • Your price for magic only and magic + disco • Any photos, videos, website or reviews from previous parties We’re looking for someone with great energy and personality who knows how to engage a group of 10-year-old boys and make the party memorable!
