Booked for Private party

A true professional, Dominic was in contact with us all the time leading up to the event, also he was very punctual. It was great to have a comedian who did not have to use foul language to make you laugh, even though ours was an adult only event. Thank you so much Dominic, i am sure we will be seeing you again.

Booked for Celebration

Dom provided a great hour of entertainment for a family crowd via Teams. A few jokes, a bit of magic and some chat, before calling bingo. It was great to work with him, and he did a brilliant job flexing his style as there turned out to be a lot more kids on the calls than we had expected. I got great feedback for the event, everyone appreciated a different voice, if only for an hour. Would recommend!

Booked for Birthday party

Everyone I spoke to after the party enjoyed Nicks repertoire. He didn't upset anyone with his jokes, bearing in mind several different factions of friends and family. He contributed to a great night.

Booked for Birthday party

Vin did not disappoint. The event I hired him for was an 80th birthday party for my father, and Vin was able to cater for the varied ages in attendance. He had the room in stitches with his witty, observational and personalised performance. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for comedy at their event. Vin was communicative throughout the booking process and perfectly tailored his show from the information I gave to him. He totally made the night special for all.

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.
