Fire Eaters For Hire Near You

Styles and themes you can lean into

• Classic circus Striped costuming, upbeat soundtrack, and clean lines. Ideal for family crowds and traditional fêtes.
• Medieval fayre Earthy colours, leather accents, and storytelling. Pair with live drum tracks for atmosphere.
• Fantasy and dragons Capes, scales, and bold silhouettes, with fans and staff creating “wings” of flame. Perfect for themed weddings and comic-con style gatherings.
• Winter light trail Frosted makeup, lantern motifs, and slower, mesmerising sequences. The contrast between cold air and warm flame looks incredible on camera.

What affects the price

Most UK bookings land between £300 and £750. Where your quote sits depends on a few levers:

• Duration and structure A single showstopper is cheaper than a night with multiple ambient sets plus a headline routine.
• Solo or duo Duo acts add symmetry and larger formations. They also cover each other for continuous flow.
• Travel and call time Remote sites or long waits between sets increase the fee.
• Production add-ons Sound reinforcement, custom soundtrack edits, or additional LED sets for early evening will nudge costs up.
• Seasonality Bonfire Night week, Christmas light switch-ons, and bank holidays book early and price at a premium.

Typical packages that work

• Meet-and-greet glow Two or three short ambient appearances across arrivals and drinks. Gentle flames, close-up moments, friendly chat.
• Feature spotlight One 10–15 minute set at dusk with choreography, big beats, and a tidy finale.
• Mixed evening Ambient micro-shows early on, then the feature routine after speeches or awards.
• LED contingency A no-flame version of the choreography with illuminated props for venues that can’t permit open fire.

Safety and compliance without the stress

This is where we’re meticulous. Professional fire performers carry public liability insurance, risk assessments, and method statements. We confirm ground conditions, wind thresholds, minimum performance distances, fuel types, and emergency kit. You’ll see a neat, contained fuel station, a fire blanket close by, and clear communication with your venue manager. Indoors is usually a no for flames, but LED options keep the look without the risk.

What your venue needs to know

• Exact location and footprint We share a simple plan with safety zones and audience arcs.
• Timing Dusk is ideal. If your schedule runs earlier, consider an LED warm-up then a flame finale at sunset.
• Power and sound If you want a soundtrack, we either plug into your PA or bring a compact battery unit.
• Weather plan Wind is the boss. We agree thresholds, sheltered performance options, or an LED switch if needed.
• Stewarding For public events and town squares, light stewarding keeps the arc clear and maximises impact.

How to brief your fire act

• Event outline, theme, dress code, and audience profile
• Running order with preferred time slots
• Ground surface, access, and parking details
• Any pyrotechnic restrictions or noise considerations
• Your must-have moments for photographs
• Backup plan you’re comfortable with if conditions change

Budgeting made simple

• If your focus is value Aim for a single feature set near sunset. Expect around £300–£400 for a solo, travel dependent.
• If you want balance Add a short ambient set earlier and a feature later. Plan for £450–£600.
• If you’re going big Book a duo or extend the evening with multiple reveals. Budget £650–£750 and up with production extras.
