What can themed dancers do?

Themed dancers are professional dancers in costume to match your event: Charleston for Gatsby, showgirls for cabaret, sea-themed troupes for under-the-sea and festive dancers for Christmas.

They can perform a choreographed show, lead a short dance lesson for guests or simply get the dance floor going.

Frequently asked questions

Which venues near Wakefield can host a large event?

On our list, New Dock Hall Royal Armouries (up to 1500 guests) and Leeds United (up to 1200 guests) can take 400 or more guests. Tell us your venue and numbers and we will plan themed dancers around the space.

Do venues around Wakefield 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 themed dancers cost in Wakefield?

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 Wakefield is 9 miles south of Leeds. Send us your date and venue for free, no-obligation options.

Which postcodes around Wakefield do you cover?

All of WF1, WF2, WF3 and WF4, including Walton, Horbury, Crofton, Crigglestone, Ryhill and East Ardsley, plus the rest of West Yorkshire and nearby Dewsbury, Batley, Barnsley and Castleford.

Can the dancers teach our guests?

Yes. A short dance lesson, like the Charleston at a Gatsby night, is one of the most popular options.

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.
