Dakota was absolutely amazing for our Yelp event in October! She provided stilt walking and aerialist performances throughout the event. She worked the crowd perfectly and was a huge success at the event and a favorite of the attendees. You can tell she is extremely passionate about what she does and that she puts her all into everything that she does. It’s very evident in her work. I’ve worked with her in the past and I cannot wait to continue to work with her and hire her for events because she does an amazing job and really helps to make the event so much better than it could’ve been if she wasn’t there. Highly highly highly recommend hiring her for any event you’re planning.

The Carolina Cup is a steeplechase horse racing event that holds 40,000+ guest each year. We strive to make each and every one of our guests enjoy their day at the races. This includes all of the kids as well. Our event allows for children 12 and under to get in free and also have access to our free Kidzone area. We like to bring in many different activities for the kids to enjoy. This year we hired Dakota Fox and her crew to be the entertainment for the Kidzone. From the time I spoke with her over the phone to in person at the event; I could tell she was very professional about what she does. Each and every one of the kids at the event had a blast with the circus entertainment and giant bubbles. And everyone loved the silt walkers even some of our other guest in the nearby area that were tailgating. I would definitely recommend hiring her for your next event. I can't wait to have them join us again for next year!!!

We hired Dakota Fox Entertainment for a full 3 day weekend Mardi Gras Festival. We could not have been happier with the professionalism, entertainment and attention to detail throughout the planning process. We had Acrobatic Bartending, Stilt Walking, Balloon Artist, Champagne Dress, Mirror Disco Ball, Juggling, Unicyclist, etc. This added so much to our events. Crowds were amazed by dazzled by the entertainment. The entertainment was worth every penny, our event simply would not have been as successful without them! Thank you again Dakota, we hope you will return to Beaufort soon!

We had the pleasure of having Dakota Fox at our event, and they were absolutely amazing! The fire performance, including fire-throwing and fire-eating, left everyone in awe. They brought incredible energy and artistry that completely blew our guests away.
If you want a show that’s unforgettable, Dakota Fox is the one to call!

What a cool way to get the party started!!!! The party robot was amazing, Once the robot arrived, everyone jumped up and ran to the dance floor. We had such a good time. My family could not stop talking about it. I highly recommend.

My wife Jennifer and I (Martin Wedding Films) worked with Dakota Fox Entertainment at a Wish Upon a Wedding event in Greensboro. Holy crap! We thought the party was going reasonably well, then Dancing Robot showed up, and everything elevated to an entirely different level. We can't wait to work with again!

Dakota Fox Entertainment truly brought the magic of the 1920s to life at our Gatsby Afternoon Affair! Each of her characters was spot-on, adding an authentic and lively atmosphere to the event. Our guests were not only entertained but enchanted by the performers’ beautiful smiles, welcoming attitudes, and commitment to making everyone feel part of the experience. From mimes to flappers and the iconic Betty Boop, every detail was perfect. Dakota and her team made our event unforgettable with their charm and talent! Highly recommend her for any event that needs a touch of elegance and fun.

Dakota was a joy to work with! We booked her Mirror Lady Aerial Act for our cocktail hour and the LED Party Robot for the dance floor portion of the reception. All the guests loved both acts! Highly recommend for anyone looking to take their event to the next level.

We had the absolute best experience with Dakota for our Cosmic Carnival space themed event in October. Dakota is super sweet, friendly and professional. Her first act was a stilt walking a space alien with a fun bubble gun. The costume was amazing and Dakota was so fun with the guests. Taking photos and dancing! Her second outfit was the LED robot and that was a huge hit too! She does such a great job working the crowd and being fully involved in the event. She’s absolutely amazing and I can’t say it enough. Hire her and you will not be disappointed in any way. Thank you so much Dakota for making our event even more memorable than I could’ve imagined!!!!

I recently hired Dakota Fox for an event for my studio, and she was amazing! The attendees absolutely loved her stiltwalking as a part of the event. She was warm and welcoming, energetic, and entertaining. The costumes, makeup, and variety that she provided brought so much to our crowd! Everyone was already asking when she would be at the next event. Definitely going to hire her again for some outstanding entertainment!

About
I know finding the right fit for your event is especially important. I’m excited about the possibility of working with you and I’d love to share a little more about me:
My favorite performance specialities are aerial bartending and stilt-walking, as these both allow me to interact with event guests on a more personal level. I also enjoy being a “ambient” or background entertainment, which adds a special element to larger events with moving crowds.
I have also been a stage performer for many years, delivering feature acts such as lollipop lyra, aerial moon, pole dance, chair & cabaret dance, contemporary dance, and weird & wacky variety performances. I have traveled world-wide for professional dance competitions and dance performances (before baby!) and now keep most of my traveling within the US.
Outside of event entertainment, I own two small business (one in dance/fitness and one in houseplants). I live with my husband, daughter, and animal friends in the Apex, NC area.
I’m grateful that you have stopped by my profile and am happy to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to working with you in the near future!
Additional Booking Notes
For stilt-walking and lollipop lyra (often used for aerial bartending), at least 10ft of ceiling is needed. Lollipop Lyra is on a freestanding stage that is 5’ in diameter; having at least 2-3’ feet cleared around the stage is important for safety reasons.
Stage pole specs are the same as the Lollipop Lyra specs.
LED Robot costumes will require shorter sets/more breaks over the time booked, due to the weight & heat of the costume.
For aerial equipment to be rigged indoors, a weight-bearing I-Beam or support beam is necessary. Client must provide a motorized lift for ceiling heights over 10ft. This will apply to equipment such as Lyra, Sling, and Trapeze.
Aerial bartending involves pouring glasses of champagne or wine for guests. If booking for aerial bartending, the event host is responsible for the following: glassware; towels/rags; a server or bar assistant for the duration of the event; any beverages or alcohol. Alcohol may be served to guests age 21 and older only.
A layout for equipment placement is required once I am booked for your event. Photos or an on-site visit may be requested for events requesting aerial rigging.
I ask that event hosts provide a private “green room” whenever possible. This will allow me to store my equipment, costuming, and personal belongings for the duration of your event.
All equipment is for performer use only. Guests may not touch, grab, pick-up, or utilize my equipment. Guests who do will not be covered by insurance and liability will default back to the event organizer, including any equipment damages. Client should ensure the security & safety for all performers, their effects, and their equipment at events.
