The Pixies Parties Difference

What Makes a Professional Performer (and Why it Matters)

When searching for a character entertainer in Calgary, you’ll see a range of options. While it might be tempting to choose the cheapest service, the magic lies in the details—details that separate a truly professional, high-end experience from a fun, but ultimately amateur, attempt.

At Pixies Parties, we focus on three core pillars of professionalism to deliver a flawless, believable, and safe experience every single time. This is the Pixies Parties Difference:

Authentic and High-Quality Costume Design

The moment a character walks into the room, their look is the first measure of authenticity.

  • The Fabric Difference: Our costumes are meticulously crafted using high-end materials like velvet, organza, and custom fabrics. For instance, our Princess Belle gown features the exact shade of golden yellow and structure needed for a truly believable royal entrance, not a cheap, shiny synthetic.
  • Hair and Makeup: We invest in high-quality, movie-accurate wigs and professional-grade theatrical makeup. Our performers undergo training to ensure they look exactly like the characters the children see on screen.
  • Durability and Cleanliness: Professional costumes are cleaned and maintained after every single visit. They arrive in pristine condition, ensuring a beautiful, magical appearance every time.

Professional Talent and In-Character Training

A great costume is only half the battle; the performer behind the mask is what truly brings the character to life.

  • Vocal and Mannerism Coaching: Our performers are trained singers and actors. They practice the voice, accent, and signature mannerisms of their characters. When Princess Anna speaks, she sounds exactly like the energetic, optimistic royal children expect.
  • Improvisation and Crowd Management: A true professional can handle anything: a shy child, a sudden change in party flow, or an unexpected question. They stay 100% in-character, using improvisation skills to keep the magic alive and the energy cohesive.
  • Activity Expertise: From leading the Ghost Spider training camp to running a full Glinda bubble workshop, our performers know their scripts, songs, and activities by heart, delivering a polished, engaging performance without relying on notes.

Safety and Reliability Standards

In children’s entertainment, trust and safety are non-negotiable.

  • The Company Promise: We stand by our commitment to professionalism. Every booking is secured with a contract and backed by our Company Promise, which outlines our commitment to reliability, quality, and service.
  • Background Checks: Every performer on our team is fully vetted with background checks, ensuring only trusted individuals are welcomed into your family’s home or venue.
  • Insured and Reliable: A professional company carries liability insurance and has protocols in place for emergencies, ensuring your event is protected. We have a robust system to handle illness or unexpected performer issues to guarantee your booking is fulfilled.

Choosing Pixies Parties means you aren’t just paying for an hour of entertainment—you’re investing in peace of mind, unparalleled quality, and a truly authentic, magical memory that your child will talk about for years.
