What are walkabout characters?
Walkabout characters are costumed performers who roam the event in character, chatting, posing for photos and reacting to guests. They make a theme feel real rather than just decorated.
Characters range from Gatsby partygoers and pirates to nutcrackers, jellyfish, octopus and other sea creatures, depending on your theme.

Frequently asked questions
How much do walkabout characters cost in Redditch?
Every booking is quoted individually, because the price of walkabout characters depends on availability, your date, location and travel, how long you need them and your exact requirements. Send us your date and venue and we will come back with clear options. Quotes are free with no obligation.
Do walkabout characters talk to guests?
Yes, in character. They chat, pose and react, which is what makes them memorable.
Which venues near Redditch can hold a large Asian wedding?
On our list, Ragley Hall (up to 1000 guests), University of Birmingham – The Great Hall (up to 600 guests) and The St Johns Hotel (up to 450 guests) can take 400 or more guests. Tell us your venue and numbers and we will plan walkabout characters around the space.
Do venues around Redditch have sound limits for dhol or music?
Many hotels and country houses set a sound limit or an end time, and some ask for unplugged dhol indoors. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we will check its rules before we confirm anything.
Which postcodes around Redditch do you cover?
All of B48, B49, B80, B95, B96, B97 and B98, including Alcester, Stratford-on-Avon, Oversley Green, Coughton, Cladswell and Henley-in-Arden, plus the rest of Worcestershire and nearby Bromsgrove, Solihull, Stratford-upon-Avon and Halesowen.
What time will the walkabout characters arrive, and how will they look?
They arrive smartly dressed and on time, usually 30 to 45 minutes before the performance, so they are ready the moment you need them. We share arrival times and a contact number with you before the day.
Are your walkabout characters vetted and insured?
Yes. Every partner is vetted by our team before they are listed. They hold public liability insurance and certificates, carry out risk assessments, and any electrical equipment they bring is PAT tested. Venues often ask for these documents and we can supply them.
How far in advance should I book walkabout characters?
For weddings and summer weekends, book as early as you can, ideally several months ahead, as the best dates go first. We can often help at short notice too, so it is always worth asking.
Do you cover Redditch and the rest of Worcestershire?
Yes. We book walkabout characters in Redditch, across Worcestershire and the whole of West Midlands, for venues, homes and outdoor events.
