Costume Characters

Costume characters are professional performers who wear branded mascot suits, themed outfits or character costumes at live events. They attract attention, create photo opportunities, engage crowds and leave a lasting impression that strengthens brand recall. Costume characters work at retail activations, festivals, exhibitions, product launches, corporate events and roadshows.

We supply mascot characters for every type of campaign: full-body branded mascots, themed characters matched to your event, seasonal performers for Christmas, Halloween and Easter, costumed greeters and walkabout entertainment. Our costume staff have experience in roles ranging from brand mascots like Jack for The Entertainer to superheroes, animals and bespoke character designs.
