On average, corporate entertainment costs $400-$800 for a two-hour performance. The exact price will vary based on the type of entertainer you hire, their experience level, and how far they need to travel.
There are numerous types of corporate entertainers to choose from. From stilt walkers to photo booths to bands of various styles of music, there is a nearly endless array of entertainment options available to hire. If you have a vision, a corporate entertainment agency or performer can bring it to life.
Corporate entertainers can add something exciting to galas, holiday parties, award ceremonies, trade shows, and more. Entertain a crowd at a fundraiser with a live band, engage employees at team retreats with motivational speakers, or break the ice at networking mixers with strolling magicians and caricaturist artists. Regardless of the occasion, you can find award-winning corporate event entertainment to enhance the atmosphere and impress your guests.
Most corporate event entertainment providers can tailor their shows to meet your needs. If you have a specific theme or goal for your event, communicate these with the talent beforehand. Those performing music, including live performers and DJs, can prepare their setlists to fit the event’s purpose and style. Entertainers can adjust their performances to be high-energy or low-key based on your vision.
Try and book corporate entertainment as far in advance as possible to ensure you can hire exactly what you want. For staff Christmas parties, you will want to hire further in advance as this is a busy time of year for performers. For occasions like a trade show, you may be able to find what you want within a month of the event date.
Most entertainment providers have the necessary equipment to perform at your corporate party or event. Generally, entertainers need access to power outlets, a sound system, and sometimes a stage or performance area to ensure a seamless showcase of their talent. If your venue provides equipment like microphones and speakers, tell the performer before the event date.
