Stage Performances

If your party group comprises 30 or more people, you can think of hiring stage performers for their entertainment. You can invite a stand up comedian to have the audience in splits or you may choose to enthrall your guests by a sensational dance or singing performance by a professional artist.
A magic show is also a good idea if your guests are all in different age groups. Before choosing an artist for a stage performance, go through his or her previous performances.

Carnival

Lastly, you can give a look of a carnival or a fun fair to your party. If you have more than 50 guests attending a party, it may become difficult to manage the crowd at a time.
In that case it is best to have different things going on, so that the crowd gets divided and everybody gets their share of fun. You can have a portrait painter, tarot card reader, juggler, temporary tattoo artist entertaining your guests. For arranging a carnival party you ought to have a big yard or garden.
You can come up with your own entertainment ideas, after considering their taste. Make sure you have something to offer to people of every taste. If you cannot come up with anything else, set up a makeshift dance floor, play some rocking music and let your guests dance all night.
