Bubbly Circus provides Balloon modelling & Magical entertainment to children and adults. Previously providing entertainment services in Surrey Mr Bubbles has recently come to Suffolk, close to the Suffolk, Cambridge and Essex borders.
We have been trading in Suffolk for about 3 years now and provide entertainment services within a 50 mile radius of Haverhill.
You can hire us for Balloon Modelling, Walk about Balloon Modelling & Magic or Balloon Modelling & Children’s Magic show. We’re always a big hit at corporate events and fun days and have queues of children wanting our models. At adult functions the models are also in great demand and with some close up magic in the mix it makes for a very memorable event.
I wear a very colourful stripy costume (carnival / fairground) and quickly make models whilst interacting with the children. I can work either inside, outside or walk-about at a party and I make a model every couple of minutes. For adult functions I can come dressed in an appropriate performance suit for a more formal look.
For the children I also provide balloon modelling and a magic show. This has proved to be very very popular and can be worked either inside or out, as 45 minuets balloons and 15 minuets of magic or 1hr of balloons and 30 minutes of magic.
I bring with me PA/music equipment so I'm able to perform in noisy environment inside or out, and also provide traditional children's party games if required.
I have experience with large events both in and outdoors and have entertained at pre-schools for their graduations and functions and at many fun days, corporate events, school fairs, fates, parties, weddings and christenings, etc.
Please take a look at the reviews below and see what many people have said about our entertainment.
Alan was excellent. The kids loved all the tricks and balloons. They enjoyed the magic show. Alan was great at communicating and engaging the children. They loved every second.
Highly recommend Alan "Bubbly Circus".
We are very happy about the party. Bubbly circus made it fun for children. Highly recommend!
Bubbly Circus/Alan did a great job for our son's 5th birthday party last week. He made some impressive balloon figures which the kids absolutely loved. Magic show was also very entertaining, for all ages really. Thanks Alan!
Alan was a great entertainer for the children! He made an array of balloon modelling for them, listening to all their demands. His 15 min magic show was just perfect for children with such short attention span. He was dressed in an impressive and colourful suit despite the heat so well done for his perseverance and professionalism.
Great communication pre event. Alan was great with 50+ kids between the ages of 2 & 12 at a surprise 40th birthday for my wife. Highly recommended.
Alan was brilliant! He turned our garden birthday party into a real show. A big thank you from your happy audience!
Alan was just what we needed at my 4 year olds party. He was on time, arrived completely prepared, and was so patient with the kids. He was able to create all sorts of wonderful balloon items and left every single child (and adult) amazed. Thank you Alan, and thank you for the brilliant balloon batman you presented to the birthday boy.
The children loved the balloon models Alan made and there was a small group gathered round him the whole time. I think he must have made a whole meadow's worth of flowers, to say nothing of swords, little bears...And the special Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle balloon for our birthday boy was fabulous!
"Fantastic entertainment!
Alan worked his socks off during my son's 5th birthday party. He started early and finished late and made my son an extra special giant balloon model at the end of the party. The kids loved his balloon models and kept going back for more. It was a big party of 50-60 children and I am so glad I booked Alan to entertain as his balloons were the most popular feature of the party! Thank you so much, I would highly recommend."
"kids loved the balloons and magic show
Great communication, arrived promptly and entertained the kids. They loved the balloons and magic show, my daughter (birthday girl) said it was ""the best party ever, it was a blast!"" Thank you very much."
Alan did a superb job at our playgroup New Years Eve party, we had 250 guests of which half were children and no one left disappointed. Alan worked incredibly hard to ensure everyone was happy. There was great communication leading up to the event and I had no doubt that things would run smoothly. Excellent value for money as well, definitely recommend!
"Fantastic service
From start to finish bubbly circus was excellent, the communication was great - I was contacted to confirm everything ahead of the event which meant it was one less thing on my list to do! Arrived early to set up and worked incredibly hard to ensure all children were happy, even though that meant going over the amount of time we'd booked. We were holding a charity event with 250 people a d the feedback has been great. Excellent value for money as well, can't be beaten. Would definitely book again."
"Great with the kids
Very professional and perfect for the age group with the balloons and magic."
"Great service
Alan did a fantastic job of entertaining the children, the magic show was a particular highlight and worked really well when they sat down to eat their lunch, not easy to get twenty children to sit down for too long at any one time. Communication with Alan when booking was excellent, he was very professional and punctual. I would highly recommend Alan for a children’s party."
"Absolutely brilliant
Alan was great and totally reliable. The balloons were spectacular and the children were immediately entranced. Particularly loved the magic show which was really engaging and so much fun. Loved it, would highly recommend and will be booking again!"
"Very Impressed, good service..
Alan was brilliant from the moment he walked in, until the minute he left, big happy smiley face.. My guests, children & adults alike were entertained the whole 1 1/2 hrs he was with us, I wished I had booked him for longer, his balloon skills were amazing & he made me a huge balloon heart, which was fantasist, I didn't ask, he just did it, brilliant. I would not hesitate to book him again & totally recommend him, very very reliable, thank you Alan..."
You were absolutely amazing Alan. Many thanks for entertaining kids as well as parents in our Son's Birthday party. Everyone loved your balloon models and magic show. Thank you so much :-)
"5*
36 pre schoolers had THE BEST time thanks to Alan, I have had so many messages from other parents! Have already recommended for future events at the families club! Thanks again!"
"Wonderful children's entertainer
We held a birthday party for all the children who attend our nursery, we had over 40 plus children attend. They all got a balloon animal or flower including the younger children. He then finished off with a short magic show which was just long enough for them. If we ever need an entertainer again we will book him again."
"Fantastic service
Fantastic service we are verey happy. Amazing."
"Alan was great with the kids! They loved him.
Alan was very good at communicating. He replied very quickly to email and was just generally helpful. He entertained the kids at my son's 6th birthday party. I wasn't a 100% sure whether they would enjoy it or would feel ""too old"" for balloons and magic. I should not have worried as they loved every minute of it... Alan was very good at holding all the kids' attention which is not easy. One mother commented how impressed she was that the kids got several balloons each. At another party apparently the entertainer allowed each child one balloon. Alan was very generous. Basically, we're very happy customers and would definitely recommend Alan.
Thanks Alan!

"We hired Bubbly Circus recently for my sons 3rd birthday party. Bubbly Circus arrived on time as arranged. As soon as the kids saw him they ran over with their requests. He was very good and can make lots of different things. For me the best balloon creation was a tree with a monkey and bananas hanging off of it. The fishing rod was also very good. One of my friends left with a car full of balloon models requested by his son. Highly recommend for a function with kids!

"Fantastic service
Thank you so much for entertaining the children so well. The balloon sculptures were amazing, great quality balloons too. I loved the way you set up your magic show in the Talbard room and got on independently in a busy party. Thank you."
"Great Job
We booked Alan for the annual Garden Party at our Care Home. He did a great job and was kept very busy all afternoon creating colourful balloon models. Our residents, relatives and staff all thoroughly enjoyed his work and we will definitely book him again for future events."
"Our party of 4 and 5 year olds loved Bubbly Circus
Thank you Alan you were terrific! The level of laughter and participation from the children (even the quieter ones) showed how much they loved the show - especially the magic tricks! We highly recommend, and would happily use again."
We have used Alan for 2 years now at our events and he is excellent. The kids love him and he always provides great entertainment.
"Fantastic!
Bubbly Circus was splendid , very professional, was on time, was great with the children. Balloon models were brilliant. Can not praise him highly enough. Would book him again, without question. many thanks.

"Great entertainment, lovely person to deal with
Alan has been flexible, accommodating and great fun to watch. He was on time and never was in a rush to leave. My son and his friends loved every minute of Alan's performance from balloon making to magic to balloon making again! Parents we spoke to said that it was nice to have something different for a change and they all loved the fact that everyone was a given a handmade balloon and engaging interactive magic. Highly recommended and worth every penny!"
"Rescued us at last minute!
Walked in and started immediately, the kids loved it and was able to fit into a snug spot."
Absolutely brilliant! Alan kept 17 x 3 year olds entertained for an hour which is not only a feat in its self but somehow managed to create amazing balloon designs within seconds! The children kept coming back asking for more balloon creations and were in awe at the magic show-I think Peter Rabbit was a hit! Thank you and we would highly recommend you!
"Amazing! Kids love him and did a fantastic job!
My guests enjoyed it and been thinking of booking in future. Very good and everyone’s satisfied with his performance. I will book this again in future."
"Well done.
Good."
"Fantastic balloon entertainer, kids were thrilled!
Great communication, fair price, the kids were gripped as each one was engaged with. Would highly recommend!"
"Wonderful
Fantastic, best we have ever had. If alan comes to your party it will be a big hit, the kids said he was amazing. Big thanks to Alan, regards, Christine."
"Amazing - Everyoone was so impressed!
Alan worked so hard at the party giving the children multiple balloons - we have had so many lovely comments saying what a wonderful party it was and this was mainly down to Alan and his service. I have never seen this group of children so quiet and enthralled when Alan was doing magic for them, simply brilliant - Thank You. Would 100% recommend Alan and Bubbly Circus for any children's party. Fabulous!"
"Alan was amazing!
Alan was fantastic. He met and went above all expectations. He was great with the children, had a huge variety of balloon models he could make and didn't stop the whole time he was there. I can't recommend him enough. Thank you."
"Great service!
My 4 year old son and his friends very much enjoyed the entertainment by Bubbly Circus! They were amazed by the balloon making and the magic! They are still talking about it now!"
"Great outfit!
We booked Alan's balloon modelling for the children attending a grown-ups birthday party to keep them assumed for an hour to let the adults chat. But we (the adults) ended up staying in the same room to watch the show. The kids (ages 1 to 9 years) thoroughly enjoyed the balloon models and the magic tricks Alan did at the end of the hour. Thank you for adding a bit of flare to the party! Very professional and highly recommend... we will definitely be booking Alan again in the future."
Alan delivered an hour of fantastic entertainment for my 3 year old daughter's joint birthday party with 6 of her friends (and their younger siblings). Both the children and the adults were full of delight watching the balloon creations come to life and were totally captivated by the magic tricks towards the end of the show. Alan did a great job ensuring every child was included, was open to requests, and made ample balloon models for the children to enjoy. Alan was punctual and very well organised. All of the parents that attended the party would recommend Bubbly Circus. Thank you!
"Alan is a really lovely man
The kids loved every second of it! The balloon making was great and in typical boy party fashion, most of them had swords. The magic show when the kids were eating was a fab idea - they all watched and joined it while emptying their plates. I would 100% recommend - the only regret I have, it that I didn't keep Alan at the party for longer."
Very impressed, Alan came to our sons 5th birthday party and was fantastic he did balloon models and magic, the kids all loved it!!
"Very good service
Balloon artistry and magic."
The kids all had a great time at our son's party. Thanks so much.
"An excellent magic show. Children loved it!
An hour long show of magic in front of about thirty very loud children who all enjoyed the performance. Very good indeed. My daughter really enjoyed it and the end trick was the icing on the cake!"
Alan came to our nursery graduation at the end of July. The models were great quality and the children loved them. Alan made sure everyone had one, not just those graduating. It was the perfect entertainment mingling making balloon models whilst pictures were taken and entertaining the children as a group.
Kids loves the models, entertainer was kept very busy with all of there request, nothing was to much!
"Absolutely fantastic service!
Alan was very professional and very happy to attend our event. All the children loved the balloons with him making them non-stop throughout the occasion. We would just like to thank Alan for making the event very enjoyable for the children. We'll definitely use Alan again."
Very friendly, excellent service all of the children at my sons party absolutely loved him. I will be booking for my next party!!
"Recommend!
I booked Alan's services for my son's 5th birthday party and for an hour he entertained the children with his balloon show. The kids loved it and were truly entertained, there were no boring bits and my son was so happy when at the end he gave him a car balloon, that resembled Mcqueen as he is a big fan. Thank you for a great party! Very professional and definitely recommend."
"Great service and with a smile! Would recommend.
Alan was excellent, turned up on time and stayed for the allotted time supplying excellent balloon making skills! He was suitably colourful and was brilliant with the children. Very good communication and value for money. Would recommend."
"Fantastic Magic Show and Fantastic Balloon models!
I would like to thank Alan for a fantastic magic show at my daughters birthday party The children really enjoyed being part of the show and were very entertained. Alan also created so many brilliant balloons for the children, the children loved the different shapes and animals that were made especially for them, the kids were so curious they didn’t move! Alan is very creative and entertaining, I would highly recommend Alan, brilliant show & thank you for the wonderful balloons!"
"Fantastic services!!
Alan was a pleasure & great with the kids! I would definitely use him again!!"
Just amazing show from today!!! All kids were just around Alan,well done!! Highly recommend!!!!
Fantastic children loved it really happy � definitely would book again
Alan at Bubbly Circus was a huge hit at our Children's Christmas Party yesterday! He made awesome balloon animals for 86 kids! He had great communication leading up to the party in terms of booking and answering any questions I had. He was punctual and stayed until every last child had a smile on his/her face. We highly recommend Bubbly Circus and plan on using them for future events. Cheers!
"Absolutely loved Bubbly circus entertaining at my granddaughters 4th birthday party. 20 plus kiddies all had at least one balloon model (most had 2 as they kept bursting them or hiding them and pretending they hadn't had one �!!!)
Very professional. Highly recommended."
We had the lovely Twisto at our summer party yesterday & thought he was great. A fantastic alternative entertainer who talked the children through the models he made & interacted with them. All the children went home with at least 2 balloons each and my children got some very special balloons. Would be great for any party, event or occasion. Thank you Alan, aka Twisto! �
He was very good kept the children entertained for the full hour
