Summer is around the corner and we can’t wait for all of the Summer festivities, hot weather and of course barbecues! Summer BBQ’s are an instant hit with your friends and family, but have you considered putting on entertainment to really make a night of it? Your guests certainly won’t be expecting the appearance of a close-up magician or a face painter to entertain the children!
We have put together our top 10 entertainment ideas for your upcoming Summer BBQ that will keep both adults and children entertained for hours!
Martin John – Close-Up Magician in London from EntertainersWorldwide.com
Amaze with a Close-Up Magician
Hiring a close-up magician gives your guests something to talk about. Working around the party to small groups of guests, watch their eyes light up as your entertainer performs illusions and sleight of hand tricks with small objects such as playing cards, coins and rope. One of the main benefits of hiring a close-up magician is that they can work from any location and generally don’t need any additional equipment such as electricity.

Listen to the ambience of a Guitar Singer
Imagine all of your guests relaxing and enjoying good food, drink and company. Combine that with a guitar singer and you have perfect Summer entertainment. A guitar singer plays a good repertoire of acoustic songs and many will even take requests. A good thing about hiring a guitar singer is that they don’t take up much space, and will perform for a number of hours, providing beautiful background music while your guests are mingling. If you want your entertainer to perform a livelier set, this can be arranged and your guests might even get up and dance! View all of our Guitar Singers listed with us!
Keep children entertained with Clowns
If you are having many young children at your event, they can sometimes become restless and bored easily. Book a clown to keep children entertained and your guests will likely thank you for it! Clowns will act silly and some even perform simple magic tricks to young enthusiastic eyes. Clowns can get up to all sorts of mischief and will even wind up the grown-ups too!
Have fun and get messy with Face Painters
Another favourite among children is a face painter. They are extremely popular during the Summer months so it is advisable to get them booked early due to the number of village fetes and events that are hosted. Children will take turns getting their faces painted and will enjoy transforming into their favourite animal, superhero or of course princess! Good face painters will easily sit and paint for a few hours, making sure that no one is left out. Book a face painter for your Summer BBQ today!
Balloon Modellers Fascinate Young Children
Children can be some of the hardest guests to entertain, which is why we have come up with plenty of suggestions to help keep them busy. Balloon modellers are available to hire who will come to your Summer BBQ and mould animals, hats and other objects out of balloons. Children will be thrilled to receive one of these creations as a keepsake. View our selection of Balloon Modellers available to book Worldwide!
Bash and the Fire Dancers of Creative Flame – Fire Performers from EntertainersWorldwide.com
Add Drama to your Event with Fire Performers
If you are hosting an evening Summer BBQ and you want to book entertainment that is a little bit different, why not consider a fire performer? Fire performers add a massive visual aspect to your event and you will hear gasps of “oohs” and “aaah” from your guests as they are treated to a spectacular of fire juggling, fire eating and other amazing stunts! With a fire performer, you have the option to set them up on a central stage or let them work around your guests.
Keep Things Sexy with Belly Dancers
Another form of entertainment that your guests won’t be expecting is the belly dancer! Belly dancers offer a mesmerizing performance of dance that involves extensive use of their stomach muscles! Dressed in colourful and sparkly outfits, a belly dancer will perform her routine and even get your guests involved too! Just keep an eye on your grandad who is bound to be glued to her performance! It’s easy to find a belly dancer when you use our entertainment directory!
Tarot Card Readers can add a bit of Mystery
For something that will divide your guests, hire a tarot card reader who will give your guests a little insight into their lives. Even the most cynical of guests will be amazed as a tarot card reader tells them about their past or indeed their future. Tarot card readers generally work from a central location at an event and guests can choose whether they wish to use their services or not.
Chromatic – Function and Party Band from EntertainersWorldwide.com
Celebrate with Function and Party Bands
A fantastic form of entertainment for a larger Summer BBQ is to hire a function and party band. There are many types of live bands available to hire on our website and many of these will play popular songs from the golden oldies up to the current day. You can really get the party started by hiring an affordable function and party band!
