Overview
Hello! I am Antonio Sombrero and I aim to entertain at your special event by making all sorts of animals and objects out of balloons. I have nearly 17 years of experience at fairs, restaurants, schools, carnivals, churches, birthdays, and even wedding receptions. This fascinating and unique entertainment will put smiles of joy on all your guests, young and old alike! I can twist fast and simple, or as time allows more complex requests. But wait...there's more! I supply everything I need, I'm friendly, polite, punctual, and loaded with clean and corny jokes! So what are you waiting for? Book me now before someone else gets me first! Thanks and hope to see you soon.

We used Antonio for our Back to School picnic this year, and he was a huge hit! The kids loved him, and he was incredibly helpful with promoting other activities within the event, strongly recommend him to any event!

Tony was attentive, nice & super creative with all of his ballon artistry. He made amazing balloons that made everyone from one years old to sixty plus excited! Worth your $!

Antonio is wonderful. He arrived to our school carnival on time and was ready to go when the kids started trickling in (and then pouring in.) He kept the line moving but didn’t rush. The kids loved his creations and I heard several of them asking parents if they could get another balloon. A success! 🎈

Antonio was so great for my son’s first birthday, he set up his table right away and the kids got in a line and were very excited to pick their balloon shape. He brought great energy to the party!

What to expect
Please expect a line and plan accordingly.
I wear a Sombrero and Hawaiian vest to look festive and professional.
I normally stand in one location with my small folding table and gear.
I supply all of my own gear and equipment except for cover. If precipitation cover is required please request it in advance.
I am always polite and respectful to all humans.
I tell funny, clean, quirky, and corny, jokes as I interact with guests.
I never tell dirty jokes or use innuendo type humor.
I NEVER make "R" rated balloons, even upon request. You can always feel safe knowing that embarrassing or inappropriate balloons will not be made by me.
About
Antonio Sombrero brings 15 years of balloon twisting experience to every event. Born and raised in the great NW, Antonio started twisting balloons as a ministry and the passion to bring smiles to everyone he meets began. "It's almost magical when I turn a balloon into a cute animal and a person's face changes into smiles and amazement!" says Antonio. His wife of 30 years and their two daughters fully support the adventure balloons have brought to them. "I have no plans to ever stop bringing joy to everyone" Antonio adds, " in fact I'm constantly pushing myself to even greater balloon heights."
Additional booking notes
Expect a line of people. I have a small, folding table that I set my gear on and soon a long line will form. Please allow room for this. I also must have cover in even the slightest of precipitation due to the fact that the balloons will become too slippery to work with, as well as artwork becomes impossible, as they get wet.
The quality of balloon creations varies by the time allotted and the number of guests requesting balloons. The more time I'm given, the better balloons I am allowed to make.
Thank you
