Seven ways to open a gala that aren’t a speech

Why begin your gala with words when you can captivate your audience from the very first moment? At Fairy in Boots, we specialize in turning entrances into experiences. Here are seven show-stopping ways to open your event with wonder, elegance, and awe in other ways than speech.

1. The walking act: an elegant welcome

Imagine a mysterious, enchanting figure gliding through the crowd, dressed in a stunning outfit that commands attention. With a mesmerizing smile and endless grace, they invite guests into the evening with silent charm. This isn’t just an entrance. It’s an experience.

2. The grand violinist: visual and auditive

Picture this: a violinist of three meters tall, her even longer dress cascading down like a river of fabric. Guests can walk on the dress, that serves as a red carpet, itself, becoming part of the performance as the music fills the air. It’s not just an opening, it’s a moment of pure magic.

3. Enter the harp: elegance to the next level

For an event that exudes class, a harpist sets the tone. The elegant strains of the harp instantly elevate the atmosphere, signaling to your guests that they’re in for something extraordinary.

4. The Swayball act: jaw-dropping before the first toast

Combine our signature SwayBall act with a walking character for a breathtaking spectacle. Before the first drink is even served, your guests will be mesmerized. Their jaws on the floor, their eyes wide with wonder.

5. Open with opera: expect the unexpected

The lights dim unexpectedly. A deep, resonant voice introduces the theme of the evening. Then, suddenly, the lights blaze back on, revealing a stunning opera duo in stunning outfits, their voices soaring through the room. It’s grand, unexpected and definitely unforgettable.

6. Champagne with a twist: Acrobatics and smiles

Why settle for a standard champagne toast? Have our lyra pole acrobat, accompanied by a ground character, hand out glasses of champagne with a genuine smile and an acrobatic twist (literally of course). The result? Happy hearts and a room full of energy before the night truly begins.

7. The Grand Descent: A Symphony from Above

For the ultimate dramatic entrance, let our full ensemble descend from the ceiling while playing a magical, goosebump-starting song. Yes, that even includes the harpist. Dare to create this with us and build a moment your guests will talk about for years.

Which Will You Choose?

Your gala’s first impression should be as unique as your event itself. Whether you want elegance, surprise, or sheer spectacle, Fairy in Boots can make it happen.
