What can face and body painters do at an event?

Event face painters create quick, eye-catching designs for adults and children: glitter and gems, painted masks, festival looks, mermaid scales and winter frost. Body painters can also paint performers or models in full designs as a living centrepiece.

Face painting works as an interactive station where guests queue for a look, which suits family days, festivals and themed parties. For adult events, glitter bars and quick themed designs are the most popular choice.

Where it works best

  • Gatsby nights

    Gold glitter and gems for flappers.

  • Festivals

    Glitter bars and festival looks.

  • Masquerade balls

    Painted masks for guests without one.

  • Family fun days

    Classic face painting for children.

  • Under-the-sea themes

  • Brand activations

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Choose quick designs

    At busy events, simple designs keep the queue moving so more guests get a look.

  2. 2

    Give them a station

    A table, two chairs, good light and access to water make a proper painting station.

  3. 3

    Mention skin sensitivities

    Painters use cosmetic-grade products. Guests with sensitive skin can ask for a patch test or a lighter design.

Frequently asked questions

Which venues near Milton Keynes can host a large event?

On our list, Marshall Arena – Stadium MK (up to 1200 guests) and DoubleTree by Hilton Milton Keynes (up to 1000 guests) can take 400 or more guests. Tell us your venue and numbers and we will plan face and body painters around the space.

Do venues around Milton Keynes 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 face and body painters cost in Milton Keynes?

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 Milton Keynes is 46 miles north-west of central London. Send us your date and venue for free, no-obligation options.

Which postcodes around Milton Keynes do you cover?

All of MK1, MK2, MK3, MK4, MK5, MK6, MK7, MK8, MK9, MK10, MK11, MK12, MK13, MK14, MK15, MK16, MK17 and MK19, including Woburn Sands, Aspley Guise, Newton Longville, Stoke Hammond, Bletchley and Newport Pagnell, plus the rest of Buckinghamshire and nearby Olney, Leighton Buzzard, Buckingham and Towcester.

Are the paints safe for skin?

Painters use cosmetic-grade face and body paints designed for skin. Guests with sensitivities can ask the painter on the day.

How many guests can a painter see?

It depends on the designs. Quick glitter looks take a few minutes, detailed designs take longer. We advise on numbers.

Can a painter create a full body paint showpiece?

Yes. A painted performer or model can be prepared before the event as a living centrepiece.

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.

Still have questions?
