Frequently asked questions
Do venues around Poole 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 masquerade themed entertainment cost in Poole?
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 Poole is 94 miles south-west of central London. Send us your date and venue for free, no-obligation options.
Which postcodes around Poole do you cover?
All of BH4, BH11, BH12, BH13, BH14, BH15, BH16, BH17, BH18 and BH21, including Wimborne Minster, Corfe Mullen, Dorset, Merley, Three Legged Cross and Bournemouth, plus the rest of Dorset and nearby Bournemouth, Swanage, Ringwood and Verwood.
Do you supply masks for guests?
We can arrange hosts to hand out masks. Tell us your numbers and style when you enquire.
Is masquerade only for black tie?
No. It works for black tie, but also for themed parties and birthdays with a more relaxed dress code.
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.
