Twisting Balloons, Painting Smiles

Welcome to Masquerade—your friendly, professional children’s entertainer specialising in balloon artistry, face painting, mascot meet-and-greets, and circus skills workshops.

About Our Company

Party Magic For You

From elegant balloon arches that transform any venue to character appearances fronted by our crowd-favourite Dewi the Dragon, we create joyful, high-energy experiences that little ones will talk about for weeks.

We design décor and activities to fit any space and theme: birthdays, nurseries, schools, community fun days, christenings, corporate family events and more. Our balloon décor can be styled eco-consciously using natural, biodegradable latex and air-filled designs where suitable, helping you celebrate beautifully and responsibly.

Do your balloons suit small venues?: Yes. We measure and design for any space—from compact living rooms to large halls and marquees.
