Our venue list around Kensington includes 8 hotels and 4 event venues, with Novotel Hammersmith the biggest at up to 900 guests. That range matters when you book under-the-sea entertainment: a ballroom, a marquee and a private dining room each need a different set-up.

A tip for Kensington bookings: at venues with a pool or water feature, mermaids make the perfect focal point.

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.

Where it works best

  • The welcome

    Mermaids to welcome guests

  • The reception

    Roaming sea creatures and pirates during the reception

  • Through the evening

    An aerial act as the centrepiece

  • The headline moment

    A fire finale outdoors

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Plan a reveal

    Hold a fire trident moment back for the finale when the lights drop.

  2. 2

    Light it blue

    Ask your AV team for blue and teal uplighting and the performers do the rest.

  3. 3

    Use the pool

    At venues with a pool or water feature, mermaids make the perfect focal point.

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.
