What is in an under-the-sea package?
An under-the-sea theme turns a room into an ocean: mermaids at the entrance, jellyfish and octopus characters roaming the crowd, aerial acts overhead and a sea god with a fire trident for the finale.
It is one of the most photographed themes we offer and works for summer parties, product launches, charity galas and pool parties.

Frequently asked questions
Do venues around Glossop 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 under-the-sea themed entertainment cost in Glossop?
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 Glossop is 11 miles east of Manchester. Send us your date and venue for free, no-obligation options.
Which postcodes around Glossop do you cover?

Can mermaids perform in a pool?
Some can. Tell us about the venue's pool and we will check suitability, safety and the venue's rules before confirming.
Is the under-the-sea theme family friendly?
It can be. We choose the acts and costumes to suit your audience, from family fun days to evening galas.
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.
