We can entertain practically every type of holiday party. Our Christmas Party options have entertained some of the largest companies. We also provide Valentines Day Parties, New Years Eve, Halloween, and just about any other type of holiday.

SWEET 16 PARTIES

This party celebrating the coming of age requires an understanding from our facilitator to meet the needs of having a party celebrating her becoming an adult while making sure that it is a safe environment for participants.

BAR AND BAT MITZVAHS

We know the importance of providing the traditional elements of celebrating becoming a man or woman in eyes of the Jewish community while also wanting to provide a unique experience that can out perform celebrations had by others.

BIRTHDAY PARTIES

Finding unique ways to celebrate the milestones of your life require being able to adjust to a variety of age groups and to deal with a variety of traditional and non-traditional options, including surprise parties and roasts.

WEDDING PARTIES

Weddings are a lot more than just the ceremony. We provide entertainment from the Engagement, through the Bachelor or Bachelorette Party, the Reheasal Dinner, the Reception, or even little games in-between. We help make your nuptials even more special!

ANNIVERSARIES

Looking back on lives spent together requires putting the focus where it belongs, on the happy couple. We work with you to bring the best options possible to celebrate and enjoy family.

We consult with you to discuss your event and bring the best options based on our conversations that are custom-tailored to your group. This can include a variety of activities from murder mysteries and game shows, to fun characters and comedy.

Murder Mysteries

Our cast of detectives, mysterious suspects and plots are customized to your special events and adjust to your your desires. We have different approaches and themes to fit almost any group.

Game Shows

We engage the competitive spirit of partygoers and get them playing with one another and enjoying the fun. These are a lot of the TV styled shows as well as customized formats that we can create just for your family and friends.

Improv Comedy Shows

Improvisational comedy is a great way to have an ensemble entertain your group in a relaxed atmosphere. We can use this to get people laughing and having a shared experience and even incorporate your people in the show.

Magic and Mentalism

We can bring a variety of magicians and mentalists to your event. They can perform by roaming through your group with one-on-one performances, or they can perform on stage in front of the group as a whole.

Fun Characters

We can bring fun characters to interact with your groups. These can be for comedic value as well as to create a surprise in a variety of ways. With Santas, police, hotel managers, dates, and many other options, we can pep up any gathering.

Getting together with friends and family is all about having a great time. We help take the worry away as our professional staff and local performers will serve your needs. This should allow you to relax and enjoy the performance with your guests.

Beyond friends and families, we can work with church groups, fraternal organizations, charities, PTA's, and just about any other type of group looking to entertain their members.

IT IS YOUR BIRTHDAY! WE KNOW IT ISN'T OURS!!
While we work hard to make your event special and to shine, we know that it isn't about us. It is about your celebration of achieving the milestone marking your progress in life. Whether it is your 13th birthday, 30th, or 80th, we work hard to make it about you and your guests rather than about us. We speak with you about your desired event and then make it a reality! This makes sure that we accommodate your friends and family in The Hartford of the West.

As the largest city and capital of Iowa, the city is a major economic and cultural hub for the state. With popular sports teams, theaters, the Botanical Center, Adventureland Park, multiple festivals, and many other popular gatherings there is no shortage of things to do. It is family-oriented and quite literally middle-America. You would be hard-pressed to find a place as American anywhere else. We work with the great Des Moinesians to bring them fun and success. Whether you are using The Iowa Events Center, The State Fairgrounds, or The EMC Expo Center to entertain the employees of your insurance company, or just a family gathering with the kids at Pizza Ranch, we come to you and help your group have a great time.

OUR GREEN COMMITMENT While ultimately we serve our clients in the way that they require, we work hard to reduce the carbon footprint of any event. We recycle, utilize local talent when preferable, and look to leave places better than we found them. When we do travel, we take pains to reduce our impact on the environment.

We provide entertainment for Des Moines private parties throughout Beaverdale, Chautauqua Park, Clive, Downtown, Drake, Glen Oaks, Highland Park, Historic East Village, Prospect Park, Riverbend, Riverview Park, Sherman Hill, South of Grand, the Street of Presidents, Urbandale, Waukee. We can also serve Clive and Jordan Creek in the West, Green Meadows West in Johnston, around DSM Airport, the Fairgrounds and Pleasant Hill, Urbandale and Merle Hay, Ankeny, the Racetrack and Amusement Park area and anywhere else you can think of. We do not provide the food or the venue. We come to you and help you have a great time!

WE COME TO YOU!
We work with groups that are small, medium and large. We also work with people that are in the city, the suburbs, and that are in more rural areas. It never made sense to get our own facilities. We come to a venue of your choosing and this allows you to make your own food and beverage options. In general, you want enough light to see, enough space to move around comfortably, and it should be quiet enough to hear. Everything else can be adjusted to.

WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW

WHAT IS THE REASON?

The first step is to determine your needs. This includes potential goals, desires and concerns. The more we know about what has already been decided can allow us to narrow the conversation to approaches that interest you.

WHAT ARE THE DETAILS? WHERE? WHEN? HOW MANY?

We need to know the type of venue you will have and where it will be in the area. A date, or date range, for when you would like to have this and what time frame you are looking for will help to determine our commitment and availability. Knowing the size of your group, though that will likely just be an estimate, will allow us to choose approprate options and have a better feel for the resources required.

DO YOU HAVE A BUDGET?

If you know budget limitations, that can allow us to restrict the conversations to those options that will be within your financial constraints. This works in both directions. We don't want to overbuild and propose options that can't be done. Also, we don't want to underbuild and not provide enough service to achieve you goals when your budget could allow those options.
