Richard Horner2 Sep 2024

Booked for Other Event

Karlene was simply fabulous, and seemed genuinely to love painting the kids faces with all sorts of designs and colours! The kids (and one or two slightly older folks) were equally all excited and delighted to have their faces painted. KDiva's a definite hit and I would recommend her service to anyone!

Beth Payne27 Apr 2022

Booked for Wedding

Fantastic caricatures and Francesco was so personable and friendly. It was an amazing addition to our wedding day and all of our guests loved having their caricatures drawn and taking home a memento of the day! Would not hesitate to use again (and I may book him for an upcoming big birthday party)!

Booked for Celebration

Squeaky was amazing! He had the kids mesmerized the whole time. He was on waaaaay longer than I had booked him for and had the kids (aged 3 - 7) laughing the whole time. All the adults commented on how great he was and loved the fact their children were entertained for such a long time while they could relax for a bit. Highly recommend.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
