Have used Poptop before for clown Squeaky and will use again. The service is fantastic and Squeaky is amazing. The kuds (and adults) live him and he keeps them entertained with lots of sillyness and giggles

Charlie was amazing, he was so engaging with the kids, the children were engaged for the full 2 hours they did not get bored they just wanted more from Charlie. He catered to every child that was at my daughter’s party as the ages varied. My daughter had so much fun on her birthday that she has requested Charlie for her next birthday party!

I had to book last minute and Catherine came as “Ellie the Explorer” for my two year old party and kept the 2-5 year olds entertained and engaged. It was a brilliant experience for all and a lifesaver at such last minute. She called to check in advance all details were correct and arrived promptly. Thank you!

Rosa was great! The kids had so much fun, she adapted the program to match their age (1-3 years old) and included all my daughter's favourite songs. Many parents were asking about her afterwards and interested to hire.

Find Your Perfect Clown: A UK-Wide Guide to Brilliant Entertainment
Across the UK, from the bustling cities to the quietest country villages, one thing unites us all: the desire to throw a truly memorable party for our children. We want to create days filled with laughter, fun, and a little bit of magic. But the reality of organising it all can often feel more like hard work than fun.
That’s where a professional party clown can be an absolute game-changer. But first, let’s be clear: the modern clown is a world away from the slightly dusty, traditional circus image. Think of them as a vibrant, multi-talented, one-person entertainment solution, whose entire job is to bring joy and laughter to your event.
As event professionals at Poptop, we’ve helped thousands of people across the country find incredible entertainment. We've created this ultimate UK guide to help you find the perfect clown for your celebration, no matter where you are.
Why a Professional Clown is a Game-Changer for Your Event
Hiring a professional entertainer is about so much more than just filling an hour or two. It’s about guaranteeing that the core of your party is a resounding success. A great clown is an expert in managing a room full of excited children, channelling their energy into structured games, amazing magic, and hilarious comedy. Their skills are universal; slapstick and silliness work just as well in a Scottish village hall as they do in a Cornish garden.
This provides the single greatest gift for any host: the ability to relax. While the children are captivated, you’re free to manage everything else, chat with your guests, and, most importantly, watch your child have an amazing time. It lets you relax and plan without the anxiety. When you book a vetted professional, you’re not just hoping they’ll be good; you’re securing a reliable expert. This peace of mind is priceless, allowing you to stop worrying and start looking forward to the big day.
A Perfect Fit for Any UK Celebration
The wonderful thing about a clown is their adaptability. They can bring their unique brand of fun to almost any kind of family gathering, anywhere in the UK.
- Birthdays: The quintessential kids' party! A clown provides the perfect centrepiece for any birthday celebration, making the birthday child the star of the show.
- Village Fêtes: A quintessentially British event. A clown is the perfect addition to any fete, providing a scheduled show or walkabout entertainment that adds to the cheerful, community atmosphere.
- Wedding Kids’ Corners: This is a genius move for any wedding. A clown can entertain your younger guests during the speeches and reception, which is an absolute godsend for the happy couple and a huge relief for parents.
- Farm Park Days: Many farm parks host special event days. A clown is a fantastic addition, providing extra value and a memorable highlight for visiting families.
Great British Venues: From Barns to Back Gardens
Throughout the UK, we’re blessed with a fantastic variety of spaces perfect for a party. A professional entertainer knows how to make the most of any setting.
- Farmyards & Barns: For a rustic, country-themed party, what could be better? A barn provides a wonderfully atmospheric and spacious setting for a show.
- Marquees: The ultimate flexible venue. For a big birthday, a wedding, or a corporate family day, a marquee in a field or large garden can be transformed into a magical party space.
- Village Halls: The dependable heart of communities up and down the country. Affordable, practical, and a brilliant blank canvas for any party theme.
- Large Gardens: The classic setting for a Great British summer party. An entertainer can easily set up their show on the lawn for some fun in the sun.
The beauty of a nationwide network is that you can find what you need effortlessly. No matter your postcode, from the tip of Cornwall to the top of Scotland, you can simply enter your location and instantly see a list of brilliant, local entertainers who are available for your event.
Brilliant Themes for Any UK Party
A theme adds an extra layer of excitement and makes your party feel cohesive and special. A versatile clown can tailor their act to fit beautifully with your vision, helping you get an event that is uniquely yours. Our suppliers are creative professionals who love adapting their costumes, props, and performance to create a bespoke experience.
- Country Fair: A charmingly rustic theme. Think bunting, hay bales, and classic fairground games. A clown in dungarees or a waistcoat fits in perfectly.
- Circus & Animals: Bring the magic of the big top to your event. This timeless theme is all about colour, spectacle, and fun, with plenty of scope for animal-themed games and balloon models.
- Superheroes: A universally popular theme that never fails to get kids excited. A clown can offer a comedic twist as a clumsy superhero or a bumbling sidekick.
- Rainbow/Pastel Sets: A visually stunning and popular choice. Bright rainbow colours work brilliantly for a high-energy party, while soft pastels are perfect for a gentler, more whimsical feel for a first birthday or christening.
A UK Price Guide: What Does a Clown Cost?
Across the UK, you can expect the cost of a professional children's entertainer to be in the region of £150 to £250. While prices might vary slightly depending on your specific location, this serves as a solid guide for a high-quality, reliable performer.
This price will typically include a full entertainment package, usually lasting between one and two hours, which is the ideal amount of time to keep children fully engaged.
A standard package will generally cover:
- An interactive show featuring comedy, magic, or puppetry.
- A selection of organised party games, often with music.
- Balloon models for every child to take home.
- A special, more detailed balloon creation for the guest of honour.
The final quote can depend on factors like performance duration, travel distance, and any optional extras you might choose.
We believe you should be able to plan your party in minutes, not days. Your time is valuable, so waiting around for quotes is a thing of the past. With instant, all-inclusive pricing, you see the final cost upfront, no matter where you are in the UK.
