Birthday and anniversary parties are blank slates for entertainment options. Incorporate it with an event theme, a decade, or make it into a contest; the sky’s the limit! Keep reading for some fantastic event entertainment options you may not have thought of, perfect for an upcoming birthday or anniversary event.
1. Talented Bartenders and Mixologists
Nothing beats a fantastic mixed drink experience, especially for a New York bash. Infuse entertainment with the spirit catering aspect of your party. Beverage-based companies like Mannya Bar Services make for a truly unique and entertaining night.
2. Live Music or DJ Event Entertainment
Live music is always a great entertainment option if it’s in the event budget. New York has some of the best live music around, too. For those going for a decade theme and want to go the tribute band route, think about having your guests dress up to compliment the band or music era. Some ideas for contest categories can be anything from the best headbanging routine and best shoulder pads to the best Y2K outfit. And don’t overlook the dancefloor pumping DJs in NYC either!
3. Send Sparks Flying with a Pyrotechnic Performance
Bring a bit of circus flair to your birthday or anniversary event with live pyrotechnics. Fire dancers, fire eaters, and more can add the perfect amount of spice for a late-night event. Have some real sparks to celebrate a birthday or to commemorate when newlywed sparks ignited years ago. Get creative with your NYC event theme so you can get even more creative with the event entertainment.
4. Exotic Belly Dancers
Depending on the crowd, something as exotic as a New York-based belly dancer can be a fantastic addition to any event with a complimentary theme. Belly dancing is incredibly entertaining and suitable for any party theme. If you can’t find belly dancing performers for your anniversary or birthday party, you can book other dance performers or dance companies for exciting stage acts.
5. Treat Your Event Guests to Comedy
Nothing gets a crowd more excited than a brilliant comedian who can have them laughing for days. Explore the wide range of comedic performers as your New York event entertainment for hearty giggles and lasting memories. From family-friendly acts to adults-only stage performances, you’ll find great pros all around the city.
6. Make It Magical with a Magician or Mentalist
Delight your party goers with a talented magician or mentalist providing entertainment. Whether you’re looking for a kid-friendly magician or a mind-blowing mentalist to work the whole crowd, these performances are always a hit. Imagine street magicians or theatrical magic. Or, hypnotize volunteers and get them to act out hilarious commands to entertain your crowd.
