Engaging and entertaining, our beautiful Stilt Walkers will walk about your event in exquisite costumes. Kids are mesmerised, adults are fascinated and everyone will want to meet them and take photos. We have Stilt Walking characters available in pairs and groups.
Stilt Walkers are perfect for meet and greet and roaming entertainment at public events, corporate events, festivals and themed events. We pride ourselves on our high quality, stunning and unique stilt costumes, many of which are handmade in house. Your guests will be delighted to meet our stilt walkers and will want to take many photos with them.
Welcome your guests with sophistication and style. Lord and Lady Indigo will meet and greet with warmth, elegance and grace. Venetian options are also available with beautiful filigree masquerade masks. Our multi-skilled stilt walkers can perform multiple sets or one set can be switched for other walkabout acts.
Enchant your guests with stilt walkers entirely costumed in scented silk flowers, so realistic that people ask if they are freshly picked. A seamless blend of decoration and entertainment, they bring a true sense of magic and wonder wherever they roam. These charming characters are available in 2 x 60 minute sets.
For Stilt Walkers, the venue ceilings need to be at least 3m high. This includes the dressing room.
The venue needs to provide a private, secure dressing room for the performers on the same floor/level as the performance location unless there is elevator access.
The dressing room must be accessible to stilt walkers therefore there must have no stairs between the dressing room and performance area, unless there is elevator access.
The dressing room must contain a strong table (not a trestle table) for use of the stilt walkers to sit on to get up onto stilts.
The dressing room must have ceilings at least 3 metres high. (Unless agreed with FireFlow at the time of booking).
The dressing room must be large enough for all the booked stilt walkers to change and wear full costume.
The dressing room must be within a reasonable distance to the performance area.
Stilt walkers can't use flights of stairs but can use elevators. However the occasional step is not a problem.
The performers need a strong table to sit on to get up on to stilts. They put the stilts on as part of putting the costume on, so this needs to be done in the dressing room (it also maintains the magic to keep this out of sight of guests). Please see the above FAQ regarding what the venue needs to provide, for more information on the dressing room details.
Stilt walkers can indeed go indoors (height permitting) and outdoors however stilt walking can be affected by weather. Please see the weather FAQ for more details.
Weather can affect stilt walking. Shelter will be needed if it is raining (sometimes umbrellas are enough) and strong winds can be dangerous. Stilt walkers may need to perform indoors or inside marquees if the weather is too severe.
