Choose Your Fire Experience
Featured Fire Finale
From $795
A concentrated solo fire performance designed to become the evening’s primary visual moment. Strong at sunset, after dinner, following awards or just before the dance floor opens.
Fire Duo or Ensemble
Two or more performers add scale, choreographic possibilities and visual variety for larger events, festivals and corporate productions.
Fire + LED Experience
From $1,495
Begin with LED atmosphere during arrival or cocktail hour, then transition to an approved fire feature later. Useful when flame is limited to one location or part of the event.
Custom Branded Production
Music, wardrobe, performance style and creative direction can be developed around a corporate event, campaign, launch or larger visual concept.
Perfect For
Corporate Galas
Use fire as an opening, transition or finale without asking it to carry the entire evening.
Brand Activations
Fire naturally creates a gathering point. Guests stop, watch, photograph and share the moment. Music, wardrobe and performance direction can support the larger campaign.
Festivals & Outdoor Events
Create a featured stage moment, sunset spectacle, opening ceremony or closing performance for a gathered crowd.
Private Celebrations
A strong visual centerpiece for milestone birthdays, weddings, estate events, poolside parties and destination celebrations.

What Are You Actually Booking?
A fire performer is only one part of the decision. The performance also has to work with the venue, audience distance, timing, sightlines, weather, surface and larger event schedule.
Depending on the room, the strongest choice may be a choreographed fire dancer, a fire eater, a duo or ensemble, an LED-first experience with a later fire finale, or a larger custom production.
Vaudezilla helps determine which format belongs in the event and where the fire moment should happen, rather than simply sending an available performer.
Fire Safety & Venue Planning
Great fire entertainment requires more than a great performer. Before confirming live flame, the venue and event conditions need to support it.
Venue Approval
Live flame depends on the venue, event conditions and applicable local requirements. Some venues prohibit it completely.
Performance Conditions
Surface, audience distance, sightlines, wind or weather, ceiling/overhead conditions and the performance zone all matter.
Safety Provision
A dedicated safety professional may be included or required depending on the act, venue and local requirements.
LED Contingency
When flame is not appropriate, LED performance can preserve movement, choreography and visual impact without live fire.
