An acrobat is a skilled performer who specializes in physical feats such as balancing, tumbling, contortion, and aerial acts.
On average, it costs $500-$1000 to book a professional acrobat for one hour. The exact price will vary depending on your location, the performance length, the type of acrobatics you want, and the complexity of the show. Shows with multiple acrobatic performers doing elaborate stunts will often come at a much higher price.
Acrobatic shows can include various styles, such as aerial silks, trapeze, acro-dance, hand balancing, contortion, and acrobatic gymnastics. Browse profiles and talk with performers to learn more about their specialties to determine if they are the right fit for your event.
The length of an acrobatic show can vary depending on the type of performance, the number of acrobats, and the event’s schedule. Generally, performances can range from 5-10 minutes for a single act to 30-45 minutes for a full show.
Depending on the type of performance, acrobats will often bring their own equipment such as aerial rigging, mats, or props. It’s important to discuss these requirements with the performer ahead of time to make sure the event space can accommodate their needs.
Acrobats can perform outdoors, but it’s important to consider weather conditions, lighting, and equipment needs. Additionally, some types of equipment, such as aerial rigging, may require specific anchoring points or safety measures. Discuss all of these details with your performer prior to booking to make sure your event runs smoothly.
Safety is a top priority for acrobats, and they will take necessary precautions to ensure the safety of themselves and the audience. This may include using safety harnesses or spotters during aerial acts and practicing routines with safety in mind.
Acrobats can be an amazing addition to many occasions. They are most popularly booked for public events and private parties with a circus theme. This can include everything from corporate events and product launches to weddings and proms. As long as your venue has the space for it, an acrobatic show will be a guaranteed hit with your guests.
Many acrobats are willing and able to customize their show to fit a specific theme or event. You should discuss your vision with the performer in advance and work together to create a unique and memorable experience.
