When hiring an entertainer you are probably going to be glad to find somebody to keep the children occupied at your party. But what is the correct fee? Well the truth is what is it worth to you? Do you hire the entertainer for an hour or the whole party?

Remember that an entertainer will be in most demand between 1.00pm and 5.00pm on a Saturday and Sunday. So if you want a popular entertainer at these times you really do need to plan months ahead.

Fees also vary depending on the area, London will obviously be more expensive than Yorkshire. Fees should probably start at £80.00 per hour or £120.00 for 2 hours. One last thing when telephoning an entertainer try not to make the first question How much do you charge? Instead start by asking about the shows content and availability. This will give the entertainer a much better impression of you.

Hiring an entertainer is a great way to occupy children for a good proportion of your party. There’s a lot to talk about on this subject and I don’t want to make this article too long. So it is best to start with a few basic points. Think about the age of the children. Younger children would probably prefer a clown. For older children a magician or disco may be better.

If you know of an entertainer via a recommendation then you are at an advantage. When starting from scratch. Try Yellow Pages or Yell.Com and don’t be afraid to ring quite a few to get a feel for there approach to your party.

Over a series of articles I will try to cover many issues with entertainers and would really welcome your views and experiences on this subject. Tell us about any entertainers you and your children have really enjoyed by posting a comment on the blog.
