Mad Pete was very helpful, funny and kept everyone entertained throughout. Highly recommend.

12 February 2024

Mad Pete was incredible. He provided a well organised, high energy, fun filled party. The children stayed captivated throughout and adults laughed continuously. Not just enjoyable for the children, but the adults too. The 2 hour party included magic, circus skills, balloon sculptures and lots of interactive games. Highly entertaining. Thank you Mad Pete More...

We hired Mad Pete for my son’s 5th birthday with his class from school invited. They all had an absolutely brilliant time and my son hasn’t stopped talking about all his favourite parts of the day.

Mad Pete was brilliant at getting my son involved, he is normally quite reserved and reluctant to be the centre of attention but he was up getting involved in all the different parts of the show and laughing the whole way through.

Working with Mad Pete was really easy and made the whole party simple, there was minimal preparation needed on our part, with the party run by him, just needing to have food ready when directed. Then Mad Pete made sure that everyone was off and away at the end leaving us to be able to quickly tidy up and be away.

The kids had a great time, the parents were laughing along and we were able to take the time to enjoy the party and our son's enjoyment rather than having loads to do and worry about.

Thanks Mad Pete for a great party.

Highly recommend Mad Pete. We hired Mad Pete for a 7th birthday party. It was absolutely brilliant.
From the first time I spoke to mad Pete he filled me with confidence. He took the time on the phone to walk me through the party, offered recommendations and sounds ideas. Mad Pete also took the time to get to know other family members/ younger children coming to the party to involve them.

Mad Pete was super reliable. He reassured me that I didn’t need to check that he was going to show up. I was in his diary! And i was!

He helped set up the hall, tables chairs, controlled the party from when the first guests arrived. He gave us the 5 min nod to get to start putting the food out. And then get cake and party bags ready! We were able to relax and enjoy the party as well as chat the guests

The children and adults laughed from start to finish , we were in absolute stitches. The birthday girl had the best time ever. Mum and Dad were also involved which was brilliant. Mad Pete was Fantastic ! High energy.

We all went home exhausted and the birthday girl had the best party ever and slept well!! Thank you Mad Pete. Would highly recommend without hesitation.

I have booked Pete twice for my own kids parties and have been to a couple more who have also hired, all through parent recommendations. Once you’ve agreed a date you can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that at least the kids will be entertained throughout the whole party. Kids love Pete. He has a way of keeping them all engaged and happy and can adapt easily to different age groups. If you’re looking for a professional entertainer with bags of experience for your kids party then book Pete now. You won’t be disappointed. More...

MAD PETE was outstanding - he kept 15 5 year olds entertained from start to finish - they were utterly enthralled throughout. I would highly recommend Mad Pete, a total professional who took the pressure of the hosts by keeping the children entertained throughout! More...

Mad Pete was fantastic with our girls - we had a large party for a 4 and 6 year old birthdays and Mad Pete was excellent. He kept every child and parent in the room entertained and held their attention for the entire party . We have had such positive feedback since and I know parents have already been in touch with him to book for their party's. He took all the stress out of the party as he kept everyone entertained with balloons, magic and jokes. We can't recommend him enough! More...

Mad Pete was an outstanding act. The kids absolutely loved his show, as did the adults!
I found him on Google and trusted the 5 star reviews. I was right to trust them and now I’m adding my own.
Thankyou Pete for a fantastic afternoon.

Mad Pete did everything he said he would and more. The children loved his performance as did the parents. We could relax and enjoy the party too while he took full control and kept the children completely transfixed from beginning to end. We had 24 children at the party ranging from age 18 months to 9 years and they all thoroughly enjoyed it.
Great value and great fun, wouldn't hesitate to book again, highly recommended.

After the huge success of hiring Mad Pete for our eldest daughter’s 5th party it was a no brainer to hire Mad Pete for our youngest, who turned 5 at the weekend. Mad Pete is AMAZING! I’ve had messages from mum’s following the party saying their children haven’t stopped raving about him! The entertainment is non stop and all the children had so much fun. And not just the children, he had the grown ups in fits of laughter too. He manages to engage and include all of the children whilst making the birthday girl (in my case)or boy feel extra special. I seriously cannot recommend Mad Pete highly enough. If you hire him all you need to worry about is feeding the children. Mad Pete does the rest! More...

Pete was very friendly, informative and great value for money. Pete was punctual, he called beforehand to let me know the plan for the day. The children were entertained from start to finish and loved every minute.

We just wanted to say a massive thank you for doing Caiden's 6th birthday. He had the best time ever-his words! I have had so many comments from parents and children saying how fantastic you were and that the party was fab. You kept everyone engaged and entertained and your enthusiasm shone. It was truly a birthday for Caiden to remember forever and I couldn't be more pleased with how the day went. My 15year old daughter also said if you ever need an assistant, she's your girl as her and her friend also had so much fun!

From our first correspondence via email and then our phone call a few days later you totally put me at ease and I knew instantly that I had picked the right entertainer for us.

We attended another party today with a different entertainer and I have to say that he wasn't a patch on you, nowhere near close!

You are fantastic with lots of fun energy and I couldn't recommend you highly enough.

Thank you again!

Mandy and family

We booked Pete for my daughters 6th birthday party and he was brilliant. From the moment the children (about 22 of them) turned up they were entertained. He had them chasing balloons, doing funny games and watching clown tricks and magic tricks. They were all completely enthralled including the younger siblings and he made sure that all the children were included as well as some of the shyer ones. My 6 year old had her ‘best party ever’ and my 2 year old hasn’t stopped talking about him either so no doubt we’ll be booking him for another party!
I honestly cannot recommend him highly enough. All the children loved him, the parents enjoyed watching him and it was a relaxing party for me knowing that Pete was directing things.

20 May 2019

Mad Pete came to entertain the kids at my daughter and her friend's 6th birthday party.
He's really professional; quick to respond to emails and very good about being organised and punctual.

As for the party; the kids (and the parents) loved it! Mad Pete kept the children entertained from the minute they came in the door, to the very end. We really liked how he made the party extra special for the birthday boy and girl - a really thoughtful touch.
After the previous year, where we tried to entertain the kids ourselves, I can confidently say that Mad Pete is the way forward for your party entertainment needs!

Thanks!

We recently had Mad Pete at my son and daughters joint 5th and 8th birthday party and I can say he’s definitely worth his weight in gold! !
45 kids and having done a night shift the night before I was I little apprehensive to say the least! But I don’t think I spoke to a child the whole time!!
All the parents had a great time too as it meant they could catch up with the other parents without have little people interrupt them all the time.
Pete had full control of the little ones, was punctual and tidied all his stuff and bits of popped balloons at the end.
Thanks Pete, I’m sure we’ll be seeing you again!

I cannot thank Pete enough for such an amazing 5th birthday party. Pete even pushed back his usual party time slot for us a little as we couldn't get the hall any earlier, our location helped with that decision so can't say he could do it all the time but we were very grateful. All the children and adults enjoyed it. I had messages from some parents after the party to say how impressed they were with Mad Pete. Amazing, wonderful, brilliant were just some of the comments. He is worth every penny. (If not more) My Daughter had seen him last August at a friends birthday party but still had so much fun seeing him for her party. My Daughter is normally the shy one but she didn't show any of this with Pete, he was in control the whole time, firm and fair and also compassionate. (Little girl accidentally knocked over by an older boy when pretending to be bunnies to win the balloon, upset little girl won the balloon, that was a lovely thing to do) If you're in doubt about an entertainer then doubt no more, Mad Pete is your man!

Mad Pete was a joy and we are so glad he was able to entertain at our sons 6th bday party.

Mad Pete was amazing with the children, he made sure they were all involved including the shy ones. He made our party flow brilliantly and we were able to relax and enjoy the party too, instead of missing parts of it. I've given an outstanding rating as we thought he was outstanding compared to other party entertainers that we have seen. I will certainly be recommending him to others and would use him again. Our party was for a five year old but he also does adult parties, weddings and any other party entertainment. More...
