Dear friend,
Would a magical entertainment liven up your next event?
My name is Dennis Regling and I am a professional entertainer specializing in entertaining crowds at events like yours.
I have participated at the Geuga County Maplefest, Old Milford Buskerfest, Dalton Holiday Festival, Lisbon Johnny Appleseed Festival, International Children's Festival and more.
I am a Balloon Entertainer, making and creating fun out of balloons. I entertain children and adults with a blend of humor and interaction with the people around me, while rapidly making creations out of various balloons. Watching the balloons being blown up, twisted, tied and seeing the creation develop is almost as much fun as getting the balloon to keep. With a near continuous commentary filled with puns, jokes, and humor and trivia questions, everyone is entertained.
I can do balloon creations (cartoon characters, flowers, people and more) as walk-around entertainment or with a permanent location. I also offer a small stage family balloon magic show.
If you are interested in using my talents to energize your event, please contact me at your earliest convenience. Dates are filling up fast.
Sincerely,
Dennis Regling

"We were hoping to use a kids oriented entertainer to draw more families to our festival weekend and Dennis was a perfect fit. Families came back the next day to see him again."
Teresa Jager, Co-President, Dalton Holidays Festival
"Lots of people are telling us what a good job you did and how much fun it was seeing your magic show and seeing the balloon animals you made and how good you were with the children - and adults as well."
