Planning a party in Lancashire or Greater Manchester and looking for something magical, memorable, and fun? Face painting is the perfect addition to elevate any celebration — from children’s birthdays to community events. As a professional face painter with almost thirty years of experience, I’ve seen firsthand how a splash of colour can transform a party. Here are 10 compelling reasons to include face painting at your next event.

Sometimes, the simplest moments hold the deepest memories and every child deserves a little sparkle on their special day.

1. Instant Entertainment That Delights All Ages

Face painting captivates children and even adults. Whether it’s a roaring tiger or a glittery butterfly, the transformation is thrilling and keeps guests engaged.

2. Creates Lasting Memories

Photos of painted faces become treasured keepsakes. Parents love snapping pictures of their little ones in character — perfect for social media and family albums.

3. Affordable Fun for Groups

At just £60 per hour, I can paint around 12 children in one hour or 25 in two hours, making it a cost-effective way to entertain a crowd.

4. Custom Designs for Every Theme

From superheroes to unicorns, I tailor designs to match your party theme. Planning a jungle bash or a princess tea party? I’ve got the perfect palette.

5. Safe, Skin-Friendly Products

I use professional-grade face paints that are gentle on young skin and easy to remove, no harsh scrubbing required. Just a little soap and water!

6. Adds a Wow Factor to Your Event

Face painting creates a buzz. Guests arrive, see the setup, and know they’re in for something special. It’s a simple way to elevate your party’s vibe.

7. Encourages Imaginative Play

Once painted, children often role-play their characters a pirate might start searching for treasure, a fairy might sprinkle pretend magic. It sparks creativity!

8. Perfect for Indoor or Outdoor Parties

Whether you’re hosting in a garden, hall, or living room, face painting fits seamlessly into any setting. I bring everything needed you just provide the smiles.

9. Stress-Free for Hosts

While I entertain the kids, you get time to chat with guests, prep food, or simply relax. It’s a win-win for everyone.

10. Supports Local Talent

By hiring a local Lancashire based face painter, you’re supporting local business and getting someone who understands the community, venues, and trends to best support your event.
