Your Entertainer will provide an action packed hour of games in character! This will be a combination of interactive dancing games and challenges such as limbo competitions and bubble popping contests! The games and style can change dependant on theme. If you enquire after a particular character you will be sent a party plan for your chosen theme via email and this will contain a full break down of the event!
For a group of up-to 30 children only 1 Entertainer is required however if your number exceeds 30 you will need to hire a second Entertainer to maintain the quality of your party and to provide the extra Equipment! The cost is worked out per Entertainer so If you require 2 entertainers the costs will be doubled!
Face-painting as a service is something we quote for separately from the themed games and activities!
The following 2 hour themes however do involve a very basic Face Painting design during the break for the Birthday Tea:
Cops and Robbers Party, Greatest Showman Party, Jungle Ranger Party & Dragon Party.
Unfortunately this isn’t a service we offer and as such we also can’t give you recommendable Bouncy Castle Providers!
We wish we could pull a bunny from a hat but our Entertainers are not trained in magic! (The best we can do is a Bunny Themed party!)
We can make a note of your booking and try to follow up with you but the only way to secure your booking in full is by paying the Deposit!
We wish we could but unfortunately all our prices are fixed! If Themed Entertainment is a little outside your budget we do have the Option of a ’No Theme No Problem’ which is £30.00 less on the Deposit! This means your Entertainer will still bring all the fun but wearing our Brilliant Birthdays Uniform!
Our pricing structures are per hour so If you wanted to have your entertainer for an hour and a half you would have to Pay for the full 2 hours!
Yes! For example If you want to hire a Princess Entertainer but are worried this theme won’t appeal to the boys then we can reassure you that all our Entertainers are trained to engage everyone who is there! In our experience the boys have just as positive reactions to the princesses as the girls do!
Our parties are adaptable to suit almost any age! Our dancing games and activities are very sensory and involve fun props which means even guests below 2 years can still easily get involved with them! The entertainers are very adaptive and know how to manage a variety of age groups. We also offer a Baby Sensory Party Package for the pre-toddler stages!
Dinosaur Party. Alice and Wonderland Party. Dragon Party. Star Force Party.
The children will receive a Bright Blue Branded Balloon each to take home and a Brilliant Birthdays WINNER sticker (Everyone is a winner at a BB Party!)
Yes, we will try and acknowledge all requests that are possible but at times this will depend upon our availability!
If you do choose to have your party at home in the Living room or Garden then this is not a problem! Our Entertainers have had lots of experience with adapting the games slightly to suit a smaller area. Just be mindful that if you are using a small living room that the Parachute Game may not be suitable as this requires space to spread out in a circle!
Absolutely! The Thursday before an event we schedule a call from your Entertainer, which will hopefully be made before 1PM. This will be your opportunity to have a chat and ask any last minute questions to your Entertainer!
We ask that for 1 Entertainer a maximum of 30 children are to attend your party, however we do understand that sometimes few unaccounted extra’s can appear! In this event of this we ask that as a curtsy to your entertainer that £5.00 be charged per child over the 30 mark to account for the extra work required!
Your entertainer is contracted to arrive at least 30 minutes before the party start time to ensure they are fully ready! During this half hour prep your Entertainer will construct a balloon for each child to take home, get into costume put on their headset and set up all their props on the table ready for the party!
We have full Entertainer replacement cover! We’ve never had to cancel a party due to Entertainer illness.
Written notice and a minimum of 48 hours are required for event cancellation. Cancellations made after this time will be subject to the full fee. We regret that all deposits are non-refundable and non-exchangeable. If you wish to cancel a party, notice must be given in writing via email and you must have received an email acknowledgement of your cancellation back . Please note we cannot accept messages left on voicemail as notification. If for any reason a party has to be cancelled on the day of the party, notice must be given before the entertainer has commenced travel to the party destination. If for any reason you have to cancel and don’t give notice before the entertainer has commenced travel, you are required to cover the entertainer’s travel costs in full plus the full party balance. If for any reason we have to cancel a party due to extreme weather conditions then your deposit would be fully refundable.
Probably! Bubble catching competitions are a feature of most of our parties! But please check the Party Plan sent to you upon confirmation.

As a company we are London-based however we do provide Entertainment almost anywhere outside of the M25! The only thing that has to be taken in to consideration is that parties outside the M25 will be quoted on a case by case basis however most attract a minimum £55 surcharge to cover the extra time the Entertainer spends traveling and also the cost of traveling further.
Yes! Our Entertainers are creative and our games are adaptable so whatever the disability the Entertainer will do there best to involve everyone who is there! One thing to be mindful of is If the disability comes with challenging behaviour then its good to be on hand if the Entertainer needs some assistance!
Yes, your entertainer will provide a portable Sound System, A device with loaded Themed music and a Microphone.
If your music is loaded onto a device that can connect via an Aux Cable then your Entertainer would be happy to incorporate this!
You can request a song and if your Entertainer has this on their device they will make sure to play it! However if they don’t have your chosen song you will have to provide this on a compatible device!
Yes, your entertainer will have a professional Microphone Head-Set!
If you submit a check availability form via the website with all the details of your event; one of our Party Planners will get back to you shortly via email to organise the next steps! If we are available we will send the Quote, Detailed Party Plans for your chosen theme and Invitations! On this email you will also be sent details of the various payment methods. Once you pay the deposit the party is then booked and you will be sent an email confirmation!
Yes.
For 1 hour parties there is no break, but for the 2 hour options you will have a break of around 25 minutes and whilst the children have the Birthday Tea and your entertainer will do Glitter Tattoos/Basic Face Painting/Balloon Hats (Depending on the theme booked). After this time the rest of the games will resume.
Unfortunately this is not an extra we provide!
Our Entertainers have all largely heard about ‘Brilliant Birthdays’ through having a performance background and applied through personal and professional referral as well as Acting Agencies!
We have never had this happen as all our Entertainers aim to be at the Job Location in good advance of the party! However if they are running late or are experiencing difficulties getting to you they will contact you as soon as able! If your Entertainer didn’t arrive for whatever reason you would be eligible for a full refund!
The entertainer will need enough space for your guests to be able to comfortably dance and get involved with games such as ‘Limbo!’. They will also need enough room for a table in which to put their kit on.
Yes! If our availability allows for the change and if it is made with good advance then it is possible, however it will incur a £25.00 charge.
If you are booking for below 15 guests then 1 hour slot would be doable. If you are booking for any number over 15 children you will need to book 1.5 hours.
All our themes work for both boys and girls! Our more neutral themes are:
White Rabbit from Alice and Wonderland, Clumsy Clown, Dinosaur, Dragon, Spaceman/women, Pirate, Jungle Ranger and all our Super heroes!
Absolutely!
Yes!
We don’t formally provide DJ’s as our Entertainers provide and choose the music for the time they are there!
We don’t provide a backdrop however you are very welcome to provide your own!
No, the only edible thing we provide is Haribo Prizes!
For references we have over 300 x 5 star reviews from Google+ which you can look at and we also have 100 percent ratings on Facebook and Net-mums!
Yes! The deposit cost will vary dependant on the Theme/Service and all our deposit prices are listed clearly on Theme/Service you click on!
Unfortunately our deposits are non refundable! If you cancel the party less than 48 hours before an event you will have to pay the full balance to the Entertainer who has been booked for your event!
To avoid disappointment it is always good to book at least a month before the event as sometimes we can become full booked well in advance during busier periods! However we do take last minute bookings up to 5pm the day/Friday before the event!
It is always best to secure a venue first! When you book with Brilliant Birthdays you are booking a particular slot and if the venue can’t honour this arranged date/time you may have to cancel or pay £25.00 admin charge to change your booking!
With over 300 5* reviews and over 80 Themes to choose from what more could you want! We are the only 5 star Children’s Entertainment company in London so for reliability we are on top form in providing the service as promised! We also post pictures from our events weekly so you have an up-to-date view of what you are booking when you hire a specific character! You also have the reassurance of having a party lead by experienced professionals as many of our Entertainers have been working for Brilliant Birthdays for an average of 4 years! So we can assure you are in good hands when you book with us.
A good space for dancing and playing games.
A room available for the Entertainer to change in.
Access to power/plug sockets.
Somewhere that can provide a table for the Entertainer to put their props on.
(Be mindful also that when hiring a space with a very high ceiling (such as a church) that the speakers’ projection may not be as effective!)
It depends on how many guests and what space you can provide! The most popular option is a hired hall, however If your budget allows only for an at-home party; this is not a problem we host lots of parties in living rooms and gardens. It always best to invite guests according to the space as the children will need enough room to dance in!
You will need to allow half an hour either side of the booking so that the entertainer can set up and pack down!
We are more than happy to provide entertainment at your home and for the adult guests to join in. Please however be mindful that our parties are very active and geared towards dancing games so everyone will need enough room to dance in and play games such as ‘Limbo’.
Yes! Your Entertainer is always scheduled to arrive at least half an hour before the party start time!
Entertainers always do their best to be creative and bring special attention to the birthday child were possible! The birthday child always gets the chance to go in the centre of the parachute, and if you opt for the 2 hour party package your child will win the centre Prize!
We provide entertainment for events the run on weekdays as well as weekends!
The time is up to you but it is always best to have the party running next to a time where children would normally break for lunch or dinner as the children will be hungry after all the dancing around!
It is always good to provide the option of parking! However this is not always crucial as 90% of our Entertainers do not drive and travel on public transport.
In our experience we find it is best to give this one a miss as the children will be more engaged with the fun and games without the noise and competition of the Bouncy Castle!
(Of course, If you do decide you want to hire one, our entertainers will still do a fabulous job and put their best efforts forward to win over the focus of the children!)
We can accommodate very large groups but the more children you invite the more entertainers we will have to provide. If your number remains below 30 you will only require 1 Entertainer however if the number of children is 30 – 50 then you will need 2 entertainers!
