What is a can-can show?

The can-can is the high-kicking, skirt-swirling dance made famous in the music halls of Paris. A can-can troupe brings colour, noise and energy to any room.

It is the centrepiece of a Parisian night and a brilliant way to launch the dancing at a Christmas party, gala or birthday.

Where it works best

The headline act of the theme.
Birthdays
A themed party with real energy.
Launches
French-themed product launches.
Weddings
A surprise for the evening guests.

Do venues around Gateshead have rules for performers?

Many hotels and country houses have rules on ceiling rigging, fire, access times and changing space. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we will check everything before we confirm.

How much do can-can dancers cost in Gateshead?

There is no fixed price. Every event is different. Prices depend on the acts, the number of performers, timings, travel and location, so we quote each booking individually. Travel is part of the quote, and Gateshead is 3 miles south-east of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send us your date and venue for free, no-obligation options.

Which postcodes around Gateshead do you cover?

All of DH3, NE9, NE10, NE28, NE31, NE37 and NE38, including Wallsend, Springwell, Birtley, Chester-le-Street, Great Lumley and County Durham, plus the rest of Tyne and Wear and nearby Newcastle upon Tyne, South Shields, Sunderland and Cramlington.

How many can-can dancers do we need?

It depends on your space and budget. A small troupe works for most rooms and we can scale up for big venues.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can. Friday and Saturday dates in December and the summer months go first, often months ahead. Short notice is sometimes possible, so it is always worth asking.

Can the performers match our theme or brand colours?

Usually, yes. Tell us your theme, colours or brand guidelines and we will suggest the costumes and acts that fit best.

Do you work with our venue and event team?

Yes. We agree access, changing space, timings and any venue rules before the day, and work to your run of show.
