What do stilt walkers do at an event?

Stilt walkers are costumed performers on stilts who tower over the crowd, greet guests, pose for photos and bring a sense of theatre to any space. They are one of the easiest ways to make an arrival feel like an event.

They can be styled to almost any theme, from 1920s Gatsby glamour to circus, winter and under-the-sea looks, and they work indoors with enough ceiling height or outdoors on level ground.

Where it works best

  • Drinks receptions

    Roaming and interacting while guests mingle.

  • Themed parties

    Gatsby, circus, winter or under-the-sea.

  • Christmas parties

    Festive characters that tower over the room.

  • Launches and activations

    Pulling a crowd and getting people filming.

  • Festivals and fun days

    Walkabout performances throughout the day.

  • Welcome and arrivals

    Greeting guests at the door or on the red carpet.

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Use them for the photo moment

    A stilt walker beside your step-and-repeat or entrance sign makes every photo better.

  2. 2

    Mind the floor

    Level, dry, non-slip floors are best. Grass and gravel need checking in advance.

  3. 3

    Check the ceiling height

    Indoors, stilt walkers need generous ceiling height and clear doorways. Tell us the room and we will check.

Do venues around Crawley 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 stilt walkers cost in Crawley?

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.

Can stilt walkers hand out drinks or flyers?

Yes. Many clients use them to hand out drinks, favours or branded items.

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.
