Acrobats slipping on worn-out ropes, costumes and props that fall short of the event’s standards, mediocre stage production, demotivated performers… All of this due to an inadequate budget. In this article, we provide you with some practical advice on how to organize a memorable entertainment/circus show with a suitable budget..

1. Maximize the impact of your entertainment/circus show by defining your priorities in advance

Why would you want to organize an entertainment or circus show? Do you really know what your target audience is looking for? Do you have a good understanding of the “concept” notion in the entertainment/circus show industry? Do you have a budget in mind?

A lot of questions at once, isn’t it?

(I’m fully aware of that. Rest assured: this is not an interrogation).

If you have the answer to each of these questions, that’s great. But is it really enough to get an initial estimate of your budget?

2. Boost your entertainment/circus show with experienced professionals

Funds allocated to culture are dwindling day by day due to the global economic situation. Times are tough everywhere, aren’t they? Event organizers or producers are also experiencing this reality.

To optimize every cent invested in organizing your event, you need to collaborate with professionals who have solid experience in the entertainment industry. Why? It’s very simple. This will allow you to have:

• A budget tailored to the event
• Perfect artists for the event
• An ideal set for the event
• Equipment that enhances the grandeur of the event
• A total triumph at the end of the event

Isn’t that just wow? If you are looking for a partner who meets all these criteria, do not hesitate to contact Mr. Trenka Productions..

3. Entertainment/circus show: Is a cheaper budget always a good idea?

When you say “budget”, you say “calculations”! Calculations mean savings. (It reminds me of my father: “Noah! Turn off the hallway light! You’re not the one paying the electricity bill”).

Is it always a good idea to try to organize an entertainment or circus show with a “cheaper” budget?

Here are some elements to consider when preparing the budget:

1. Artists’ fees
2. Technical staff
3. Rental of materials and equipment
4. Costumes and accessories
5. Sets
6. Logistics and transportation
7. Event venue
8. Marketing and promotion
9. Insurance
10. Miscellaneous and unexpected expenses

You’d say it all depends on the size of the event, wouldn’t you? After all, a neighborhood event can’t compare to a show staged at the Grand Chapiteau of Montreal. And, you are 100% right!

But in either case, you need the assistance of professionals to better advise you on the technical needs of your event. Adapting the budget to the human and technical needs of the event is undoubtedly the best approach to take.

4. Inflatable games: An Alternative to entertainment and circus shows?

Some people prefer inflatable games over entertainment and circus shows for several reasons:

• Lower initial investment
• Less logistics in terms of transport (compared to shows)
• Relatively low maintenance costs
• Flexibility and autonomy

But is it the same experience for the audience compared to an entertainment or circus show? Certainly not. With inflatable games:

• Participants are queued up (sometimes for 45 minutes).
• The longer you wait, the more discouraged you feel.
• Fatigue can easily take over.

For a sensational inflatable play experience, contact our partner Chez fun fou?With an entertainment or circus show:

Yes, yes, I know! The budget is a bit higher! But in the end, isn’t the audience’s happiness the most important thing to consider? If so, don’t hesitate to contact M.Trenka Productions. Our team handles everything: from costume creation to artist coordination, not to mention production logistics..

5. The right budget for a breathtaking entertainment/circus show

Establishing the right budget for an entertainment or circus show requires:

• A careful planning,
• A clear vision,
• Advice from industry professionals.

Every element must be carefully assessed to ensure an unforgettable experience without exceeding financial limits.
