What are LED performers?

LED performers wear costumes and props lit with LEDs, so they glow in a dark room. Options include LED nutcrackers, illuminated champagne tables and glowing stilt and dance costumes.

They are at their best after dinner when the lights go down, and they look incredible in photos and video.

Tips from our team

1
Brief your photographer
Low light shots of LED acts are some of the best of the night.
2
Match your colours
Many LED costumes can change colour to match your brand or theme.
3
Plan for darkness
LED looks best in a dim room, so plan it after dinner.

Do venues around Sunderland 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 LED performers cost in Sunderland?

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.
