Party Event & Entertainment Expo - Coca Cola Dome

Expo date: 19-20 September 2009
Visitor Cost: R65 per person

I have decided to attend the Party Event & Entertainment Expo in September this year and encourage everyone in the party industry to participate or attend. Stands are going on sale now and I am sure there will be limited space as the months go by. Parents please book as soon as you can as this will be a gathering of professionals who really know how to put on a party.

The Party Event & Entertainment Expo is a showcase to all party planners and exhibitors to display their products and services at the most prestigious and ultimate party event of the year.

The following kids party & entertainment goodies & services will fall under the spotlight:

• Party & event organisers and planners,
• Entertainers (clowns, magicians , speakers, comedians and face painters and dancers)
• Party accessories (jumping castles, inflatable's, balloons, party costumes, fancy dresses, party food suppliers, , theme décor, sweets, conference & entertainment equipment, promotional items, party stores, favours, carnival masks & masquerade, and countless others.

Expo will be divided into 3 main zones: Let’s Party Zone, Children’s Party Zone & Adult’s Party Zone.

If you would like to be an exhibitor or need more information, please contact Margaret Bartmanski at partyexpo@gmail.com or call her on 011 787 2591.

I am very excited, lets show Johannesburg what a party is all about :)

Happy Birthday Dr Seuss

As I am sure you all know from the subtle hint in my costume that I am a huge fan of Dr. Seuss. 105 years ago today, Theodor Seuss Geisel was born. He was the famous American writer and cartoonist who published over 60 children's books with famous names such as 'Green Eggs and Ham' and my favourite 'Cat in the Hat'.

Theador died on September 24, 1991. So lets all honor this spectacular man today as Google has done so in the picture above.

Kids Entertainment offered by Zimbo the Clown

Zimbo offers all kinds of cool and amazing stuff in his show.
press release

• Balloon Sulpting -.Zimbo's will dazzle your kids with twisty balloons your kids have never seen before. All kids at the party will get a balloon so long as time permits. Zimbo can make about 20 balloons per 25min and only uses the highest quality qualitex balloons.
• Magic Show - Zimbo's magic show for kids age 4-12. This 30min show is targeted for the party age group and is made up of mostly comedy magic. For the older kids Zimbo will do some more sophisticated tricks and for the very young its all about bright colours and interaction
• Theatrical Games - Zimbo loves to act, and kids love to do whatever Zimbo does. This is a great little game I play at the end of the 1hr shows which involves masks and some very strange acting from the kids. It is a real laugh for the parents and a ball for the kids.
• Face Painting - Spiderman, Barbie, Ben10 and more, Zimbo can paint almost everything. From full faces to tattoo's and cheek designs. This activity is not quick as every face is a masterpiece so I can paint about 15 faces per hour.
• Giant Bubbles - this has become a hit amongst the kids and is especially good for the young ages. Zimbo's bubbles are huge and so much fun to play with. I will create these amazing bubbles... the hardest part is keeping the kids from popping them... parents please help with croud control.

The Clown

Ever wondered why all clowns seem to look the same... or very different? Zimbo takes you through the various clown characters and will teach you Clown 101. Dazzle the next clown you see by telling them exactly what type of clown they are. (Just in case they did not know!)

Here are the main types of clowns:
The Whitefaced Clown
The Auguste Clown
The Hobo/Tramp Clown

After my nice long holiday I will be available to work from the Saturday the 24th January 2009 as per my regular schedule on a weekend’s only basis. Also don't forget that starting 2009 I will be performing the Giant Bubble Shows.
