Everyone wants their event or party to be memorable, and using unique entertainment ideas is simply the best way for folks to remember your event. The more unique, the more lasting the impression. So in continuing the tradition of our Events Entertainment Blog, here are 10 more cool and different ways to wow your guests:

1. Hire a 60 second novelist. He will ask the attendees some questions about themselvesBook the 60 second novelist. He comes with his own table and a manual typewriter and asks guests a few questions to get a sense of who they are, and he types out a short life story in one minute. He even binds it so guests can take it home. The story is funny, imaginative and true. This is a fun way to get people to open up and share their stories and get to know each other.
2. Our favorite idea is dueling pianos. This exciting and unique form of interactive music and comedy involves two crazy entertainers, each wielding a grand piano, top party hits from the past 40 years, jokes, toasts and audience interaction. Each piano player tries to outdo the other in this outrageous fiesta of music and comedy. This is especially good for corporate events where you want everyone to let their hair down and just have fun. or with brides who want to steer clear of the typical bands or DJs and are want something more memorable. To bring dueling pianos to your celebration anywhere in North America…call us at 917-721-5247 or email us at info[at]nynyduelingpianos.com
3. Hire a miniature impersonator. Political correctness aside, it’s pretty cute to see a 4 foot Elvis Presley in full regalia strutting around your event. It’s sure to make your guests smile.
4. If you have a flair for the dramatic, bring in a fire performer. This combines dance, drama and movement into a theatrical presentation that is hypnotic and memorable. Of course you better check with the fire marshal to see what is required in terms of safety!
5. Another dramatic choice would be a Chinese-themed event, replete with acrobats and balancing performers, folk dancers in costume, martial arts demonstrations, and a parade with a paper dragon. If you can’t have your party in an exotic locale, bring the exotic locale to your party!
6. Barbershop quartets are always hit with their tight harmonies and olde-tyme costumes. Some of these vocal groups will write a song for your group or company if you give them background beforehand. Imagine listening to these beautiful voices singing about Uncle Charlie’s flatulation problem in glorious 4 part harmony.
7. If you live in a warm climate, think about having a Snow Party. There are companies that will come to your event and create real snow and ice. You could have a White Christmas in Southern Cali with Snowmen, sledding, snowball fights and ice skating. It’s not impossible.
8. Pig Racing. I admit, this is a bit out there, but who could resist these plump little porkers trotting down the track, each scrambling to get out in front for a nail biting race to the finish. If you have a really twisted sense of humor, you could follow it with a…(wait for it…)
9. Pig Roast! Ok, perhaps not the most inspired idea after a pig race, but who doesn’t like bacon and roast pork, especially if your pig lost the race.
10. Moulin Rouge is always a fun theme to work with. Hire some Can-Can dancers, slap red-flocked velvet on the tables, and don a gorgeous Parisian turn-of-the-century costume. Hang a girl on a trapeze singing Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend and call it a day!
