The whole booking process was very easy and straightforward.
I had very swift responses to my first contact, in a very friendly and professional manner.
With what I had planned I needed a lot of information for ordering a custom made outfit. The performer was very patient and reassuring over the months, with a manner that was so friendly it was as though talking to an old friend.
The event was wonderful, with the performer giving such a focused and enthusiastic set, with additional personal focus on my son who is deaf blind and severely disabled.
The performer gave my son such a special experience, making him really feel special.
The performer also engaged with the whole hall and involved them with his display.
I would highly recommend both the website for very easy booking and also the performer for his kindness and professionalism.
Thank you so much for making my amazing boy feel special, which was exactly what I wanted for him xx

A freestanding aerial hoop made it possible to have a performance of this type at our 'Greatest Showman' themed event without the performer needing to have rigging on the ceiling which our venue would not have allowed! Very professional performance, flexible on timing and fitting with our event theme, all round we were very happy and would definitely recommend. Many thanks! :)
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.
Hire Acrobats in the UK: A Nationwide Guide to Show-Stopping Entertainment
From a charming village show in the Yorkshire Dales to a breathtaking stately-home wedding on the Scottish borders, the UK is home to an incredible variety of events. We have a knack for turning barns, fields, and historic halls into the most amazing party venues. But how do you bring a touch of genuine, jaw-dropping spectacle to your corner of the country?
Many people think that hiring world-class performers like acrobats is something reserved for big-city events. We’re here to tell you that’s simply not true. There is a phenomenal pool of acrobatic talent right across the UK, ready to bring their magic to your community festival, private party, or dream wedding, no matter your postcode.
This guide is designed to demystify the process, showing you how easy it can be to find and hire incredible acrobats for any UK event. Let’s dive in.
Beyond the Big City: Acrobatics for Every Occasion
There’s a special kind of magic to hosting an event outside of the usual city hubs. The rustic charm of a converted barn, the festival atmosphere of a big-top tent in a field, or the timeless elegance of a country hotel all offer unique and beautiful backdrops. And this is where acrobats can really shine, transforming your space and creating an unforgettable experience.
The themes popular for these kinds of events are a perfect playground for acrobatic artistry:
Rustic/Country Fair: Planning a relaxed, fun-filled event with a country feel? A high-energy acrobalance duo or a charming hand balancer can provide brilliant, family-friendly entertainment that feels right at home alongside the hay bales and bunting.
Enchanted Woodland: This magical theme is all about wonder and whimsy. Imagine an aerialist performing on silks that look like trailing vines, or a contortionist moving with the grace of a forest creature. It’s a way to bring your enchanted theme to life.
Vintage Circus: A timeless classic! This theme is perfect for a marquee or big-top. A troupe of acrobats in retro costumes, performing classic skills with a modern twist, brings a sense of nostalgic fun and spectacle that guests of all ages will adore.
A Cast of Characters: Choosing Your Acrobatic Act
The UK is home to a diverse range of acrobatic performers, each with their own unique skills. Finding the right one is all about matching their act to your venue and vision. Here are some of the most popular choices available for hire nationwide.
Aerialists (Silks, Hoop, and Trapeze)
These performers create stunning displays of grace and strength, suspended high in the air. They are the epitome of elegance and are guaranteed to create a "wow" moment.

Curated suppliers
All Poptop’s suppliers are rigorously vetted and approved by our team of party experts, ensuring you book the very best.
Best suited for: Venues with height are a must. Think barns with high-raftered ceilings, marquees, big-tops, or even sports halls. Many aerialists also have their own freestanding rigs, which can be set up outdoors in a field or garden, weather permitting.
Things to consider: Safety is paramount. Always discuss rigging requirements in detail. If you’re using a freestanding rig, you’ll need enough flat, stable ground.
Contortionists and Hand Balancers
These ground-based artists showcase incredible flexibility, strength, and control. Their acts are often intricate, artistic, and completely mesmerising to watch up close.
Best suited for: Almost any location! Their minimal space requirements make them fantastically versatile. They are perfect for adding a touch of wonder to a private party in a country hotel, or as walkabout entertainment during a wedding reception.
Things to consider: While they don’t need much space, they do need a stable surface to perform on.
Acrobalance and Adagio Duos
These are dynamic duos who lift, balance, and move in perfect synchronicity. Their performances are a powerful demonstration of trust and teamwork, and they are brilliant at engaging a crowd.
Best suited for: A dedicated performance area, whether that’s a small stage at a village show or the dance floor at a wedding. They are a self-contained act that brings a huge amount of energy.
Things to consider: Ensure they have enough clear floor space to perform their routine safely.
A Guide to Acrobat Hire Costs in the UK
The cost of hiring acrobats will depend on their experience, the type of act, and how far they need to travel to get to you. It's important to factor travel into your budget, as many of the UK's top performers are based in different regions.
Here’s a general guide to what you can expect to pay, before travel costs:
Solo Performer (e.g., Contortionist, Hand Balancer): £300–£550 + travel
Duo (e.g., Acrobalance Pair): £600–£1,100 + travel
Troupe (Three or more performers): £1,100–£2,400 + travel
Travel is often charged per mile, and if the journey is very long, you may need to cover overnight accommodation. It's always best to get an all-inclusive quote that covers these costs upfront.
