What does a fortune teller do at an event?

An event fortune teller gives short, light-hearted readings using tarot cards, palm reading or a crystal ball. Each reading takes a few minutes, and guests come away with a story to tell the rest of the table.

Readings are for entertainment only and kept positive and fun. A fortune teller in costume, with a draped table or small tent, adds atmosphere to circus, masquerade and vintage fair themes as well as Halloween and Christmas parties.

Where it works best

Masquerade balls
Readings by candlelight for masked guests.
Circus and showman themes
A mystic's tent at the travelling fair.
Halloween parties
Atmosphere and a little mystery.
Christmas parties
A fun queue between drinks.
Weddings
Something light-hearted for guests during photos.
Hen and birthday parties
Readings that get everyone laughing.

Tips from our team

1
Keep it light
We brief readers to keep everything fun and positive, which is what guests want at a party.
2
Create a quiet corner
Readings work best a little away from the loudest speakers so guests can hear.
3
Dress the space
A draped table, candles or a small tent makes the corner part of the theme.
