What do acrobats perform at events?

Event acrobats perform floor-based acts of strength and balance: hand balancing, partner lifts, human pyramids, tumbling and strongman routines. Unlike aerial acts, most need no rigging at all, just a clear, level space.

They can perform a short showpiece on stage, hold striking poses as a welcome act, or work through the crowd between sets. Acrobatic duos and comedy strongmen are especially popular at awards nights and summer parties.

Where it works best

Awards nights
A showpiece to open the ceremony.
Family days
Comedy strongmen that everyone enjoys.
Launches
Feats of strength around a reveal.
Circus themes
Strongmen and tumblers for a big-top night.
Welcome acts
Striking balance poses as guests arrive.
Summer parties
Outdoor shows on a lawn or terrace.

Tips from our team

1
Use a stage or riser
A raised area means guests at the back can see the whole act.
2
Check the ceiling for lifts
Partner lifts and balances add height. Tell us about low ceilings or chandeliers.
3
Give them a clear, level area
Acrobats need a flat, stable floor and room to move. Uneven ground limits the act.
