Awards & Gala Dinners
Entertainment for Awards Nights and Gala Dinners
Glamour on arrival, a showpiece between courses and a big finish.
Awards & Gala Dinners
How we do it
Awards nights and galas need moments: a red-carpet welcome, something special between courses and a lift before the dancing. Living statues, champagne walkers, aerial acts and a jazz singer through dinner give the night rhythm without taking over from the awards.
- Red-carpet arrivals
- Acts between courses
- Planned around speeches
- Black-tie appropriate

Dav arranged a last minute package for me
Spoke to Dav today to put together a last minute package for an event, he called me straight away and asked what I required and immediately put a package together for me, he was extremely patient and understanding and arranged everything within the budget, he was very assuring too, can’t wait for the event!
