What is a champagne walker?

A champagne walker is a performer wearing a strolling table, usually as a large skirt or illuminated frame, that holds glasses of champagne, cocktails, canapés or favours. They glide through the crowd serving guests as they go.

LED versions light up a dark room and look spectacular on camera. They turn the welcome drink into the first moment of the show and work beautifully with Gatsby, Parisian and winter themes.

Tips from our team

1
Agree drinks with the venue
Most venues supply and pour the drinks. We agree how the tables are filled and topped up.
2
Go LED for the evening
Illuminated tables are at their best once the lights go down.
3
Clear the route
A strolling table needs space to move, so keep walkways clear during service.

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 champagne walkers 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.

Do you supply the champagne?

Usually the venue or caterer supplies and pours the drinks, and the performers serve them. We agree the details with your venue.

Can the tables carry food or gifts instead?

Yes. Canapés, desserts, favours and branded samples all work.

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.

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.
