Here are some tips to find impersonators for hire: 

Consider Event Details

When hiring entertainment of any kind, you should always give thought to what type of event you will be hosting: Is it casual or more of a formal affair? What is the purpose of the event?  How do you want the entertainment to fit into the overall event schedule? 

Thinking about your event and exactly how and where you would like to incorporate entertainment is always a good starting point when searching for the perfect performer.

Know Your Audience

One of the best pieces of advice from our impersonators is to always consider your guests when booking an impersonator. "Who is your audience?  What's the age group? What kind of personalities do they have?" The answers to these questions can help guide you to the style of impersonator that will work best for your celebration as well as help the entertainer understand the type of performance they should put on.

Choose a Style of Impersonator

Elvis impersonator, EP Rock (Waterville, Maine) suggests that you should know what kind of impersonator would work best with your event. "You should decide whether you want an impersonator who is just a character lookalike, or if you want a musical act that will sound and look authentic." 

Do Your Research

Always get as much information as you can about the performer's experience level before booking. If you want someone who can truly embody the role they play, you should watch the performer's videos, read their bio, check their feedback/reviews, as well as look at how long they have been performing. 

To help you ask all the right questions, we put together a few key topics that you should discuss with any impersonator you are interested in booking:

• What kind of show options do you offer?
• Do you have a sound person and professional sound equipment?
• Are you a full time or part time performer?
• What do you do to ensure the event is a success?
