HOW LONG IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK?

Most people book 6-8 weeks in advance. It’s not mandatory that you book 6-8 weeks in advance, however, as the date of your party approaches, time slots become filled and our T-Rex becomes booked. He is VERY popular and VERY much in demand! We suggest booking at least 6-8 weeks in advance. Do you have a last-minute booking? We can sure try to help. Please call us immediately to see if we can accommodate your request.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTDOOR PARTY POLICY?

Outdoor venues are always welcome!  However, if you are planning an outdoor party, please have a backup plan in the event of bad weather. Since the costume worn by the performer is rare and is basically one of a kind, it is preferred to have a covered or shaded area for some if not all activities. Please let us know upon booking if your venue is outdoors.

AM I RESPONSIBLE FOR PARKING?

We request that you please save a spot for our performer(s) to park on the street or driveway with a trailer attached or in front of the event location. We appreciate having a safe and easy access into the party site with all materials. The client is responsible for any costs associated with parking. ie meter, garage fee or paid parking lot.

Good behavior is always promoted, it is the responsibility of the host/hostess to monitor and take charge of any guests who are not behaving. If a guest at your party exhibits inappropriate, abusive or rude behavior, our entertainer can leave with or without notice and no refund will be provided. It is the responsibility of the client to be in control of the guests at the event while our entertainer is present.

DOES IT MATTER HOW MANY GUESTS I INVITE?

We cater to all parties and events no matter the size. The only limits we have at this time would be the local or state COVID-19 laws regarding gathering sizes. It is the responsibility of the client to made sure that your guest count is compliant.

It is the client’s responsibility to make sure to schedule the correct time of the visit and that their guests are on time.

  2. Have water available for the character to drink throughout the visit.

Absolutely! Do you have any idea what it costs to feed this monster!?!? The T-Rex is well trained and makes it their number one priority to ensure your party is a success.
