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

  • Launches and activations

    Pulling a crowd and getting people filming.

  • Festivals and fun days

    Walkabout performances throughout the day.

  • Drinks receptions

    Roaming and interacting while guests mingle.

  • Welcome and arrivals

    Greeting guests at the door or on the red carpet.

  • Themed parties

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

  • Christmas parties

    Festive characters that tower over the room.

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Check the ceiling height

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

  2. 2

    Use them for the photo moment

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

  3. 3

    Mind the floor

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