When it comes to planning an event, entertainment is the ultimate storyteller.
It has the ability to shout an idea and capture the imagination while smoothly directing your guests to the dance floor as they whisper the word ‘WOW’.
BUT, JUST HOW DO YOU CHOOSE THE BEST ENTERTAINMENT FOR YOUR EVENT?
The entertainment industry provides us with an array of talented entertainers, making the decision to choose entertainment for your event a lot harder… and far more time consuming.
While there’s no limit to the impact the choice of entertainment can have on any event, the task of finding that entertainment can leave you reaching for the vodka before the night has begun.
To make the decision a little easier, we’ve come up with five tips to help you to find entertainment that will rise your occasion without raising your blood pressure:
1. Match your entertainment to your theme
Your event theme is the go-to guide when scouting event talent and entertainment.
From weddings to corporate events, your event theme assists with the initial entertainment, audio and music selections. It’s a great place to start, and will guarantee to get you on track when creating an occasion to remember.
2. Know your venue
Your venue is as important to your event as icing is on a cake.
That’s why an understanding of the ins and outs of your chosen venue is paramount. This understanding will improve and align venue acoustics making sure the sound is ideal for your event space.
The more you know about your venue, the better position you will be in when choosing the best suited entertainment for your event.
3. The right atmosphere, for the right audience
From the lighting, to the sound, there are many different ways that will impact the way your guests feel as soon as they open the door.
Whether you want the beats of a DJ to raise the roof, or would prefer an acoustic duo to introduce a relaxed vibe, be sure to take the time to think about the type of atmosphere that you want to create, and let this point you toward the ideal entertainment.
4. Think outside the box
An event is an exciting opportunity to tap into music trends and interactive performances while saying ‘hello’ with more than a wave.
Now is the time to start thinking outside the box when looking for the perfect entertainment. Don’t cross anything off the list until you’ve had a listen, and a dance.
5. Ask the big questions
Ask the experts!
When it comes to finding the right entertainment for the right event, ask the big guns the big questions. There’s no better way to get industry insight, on-point knowledge and tailored advice.
Aligning the best, most suited entertainment to your event will bring life to ideas that you never thought possible.
So grab your glass, put on your dancing shoes and let’s get dancing.
I couldn’t agree more when you mentioned consulting an expert when looking for the best entertainment for an event that you’re planning. It is recommended that you seek advice from professionals who have experience when it comes to organizing entertainment events. This way, you would have more or less an idea what to expect and what you need to prepare for on the days leading to the big event. If
