No permanently closed providers appeared in the current London listing.
So, which should you book? On the numbers, Nutty's Children's Parties tops the list for a kids' party, with The Giggle Company and Minnie the Clown close behind. Ultimately, pick the style that suits the birthday: a classic games-and-magic host, a two-character show, a theatre-led adventure, or a mascot visit. Meanwhile, for a childrens party entertainer london it pays to check the age range, the guest numbers and exactly what's included before you book. Whichever entertainer you choose, book early, confirm numbers, and check they're DBS-checked and insured.
