EXCELLENT Based on 733 reviews Posted on Bethan Wright11/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kyle was absolutely incredible acting as Woody from Toy Story for my son’s fourth birthday party. The children were all transfixed and listened really intently to Woody, doing everything he asked and they loved all of the party games and activities. I would highly recommend this company for a children’s party as it removes the stress of entertaining a large group of children from the parents, allowing you to enjoy the day. The communication in advance of the party was absolutely fantastic, I couldn’t fault a thing. Thank you again for making my son’s party such a huge success.Posted on Lucie Ducker11/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ranger Kyle & Emily hosted the most amazing party for our little boy on Sunday! This is our second time using absolutely amazing parties and I could not recommend them enough! It was lovely having Emily back (she joined us for our daughter's party in January) and I loved that she remembered! Kyle was amazing at keeping the children engaged and made the party really magical! Chompers totally stole the show and my little boy has spent the time since telling everyone he sees how he stroked a real baby dinosaur! Nothing was too much trouble for Kyle and Emily. We have had so many compliments about how well the party went! Thanks again guys and I am sure we will be back in January for take 3!Posted on Zoe Royle10/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Rumi from KPop Demon Hunters for my daughter’s 5th birthday party, and she was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She was so warm, attentive, and engaging with all of the children, and they instantly adored her. She stayed in character the entire time, brought so much energy to the party, and made every child feel included and special. The children have not stopped talking about her since the party ended, and my daughter was completely over the moon. Rumi truly made the day magical and unforgettable for her. The entertainment, interaction, and attention to detail were incredible, and you could tell how much care and effort she put into making the experience special for everyone there. I honestly can’t thank her enough for making my daughter so happy and creating such wonderful memories for all of the children. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to make their child’s party extra special!Posted on Faye McCarthy10/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing party with unicorn disco Dixie! Kids had the best time from start to finish, thank you!!!Posted on Katherine M10/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Disco Dixie for my daughters 4th Birthday. She was absolutely brilliant. Not only did she look amazing, she was incredible with the kids. So kind, fun, and patient! Lots of positive feedback from the parents, and one very happy little girl. We have used AAP a few times and they have never failed. Hope to meet Dixie again soon! Thank you so much.🦄🌈Posted on Lauren Amatt05/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Amy for a Taylor Swift party for my 7 year old daughter and it was amazing from start to finish! We gave her song requests and also parts of the party that my daughter may not like so much and everything was listened to. Amy got all the children involved and really made my daughter feel special, they even sang together which made my daughters day! She was brilliant and I highly recommend her! I’ve used the company before over the years and due to my daughters age now sadly it will probably be the last time, but thank you for always going above and beyond for my girls!Posted on Sunaina Nadkarni04/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After struggling to find anyone offering a K-pop party near Sheffield, Absolutely Amazing Children’s Parties completely saved the day! They arranged for Amy as Rumi to host my daughter’s party, and she was incredible from start to finish. Brilliant communication beforehand, super organised, and Amy was outstanding on the day — fully in character, full of energy, and amazing with the kids. Every child was entertained the whole time and my daughter felt like the star of the show. Truly one of the best children’s party experiences we’ve had. Highly recommend!Posted on Sam Kent03/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Supergirl host a party for our 4 year old. She was fantastic! She handled the kids so well and they all had a wonderful time. Lots of compliments from the parents attending, and plenty of recommendations shared to use the same entertainer. Thank you so much for making the party so memorable and making the day run so smoothly 😊🥳Posted on K Wright03/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Emma as Rumi and she was absolutely amazing! The children were entertained from start to finish and had such a fantastic time. Emma introduced herself beforehand and checked if I had any specific requirements, which I really appreciated. Several other parents even complimented the entertainment, and she truly looked and sounded just like Rumi! Overall, a 10/10 experience, we’ll definitely be booking again through Absolutely Amazing Parties. Thank you so much! xPosted on Laura Harper02/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cannot praise Emma (Princess Poppy) and the company enough! Brilliant communication from start to finish giving complete confidence before the party and the quality and professionalism and interaction with the children throughout the 2 hour event was top notch! Thank you! 🤩
