We had an amazing experience with Jason, the stilt walking, juggling performer at our elementary school's "Masquerade Ball" yesterday! Not only is he fantastic at what he does, but he interacted so naturally with all the children, it was quite the treat! A huge thank you to Jason and a pleasure working with Mary in the planning process.

The Champagne lady was the absolute star of our fundraiser! She is a jaw dropping addition to any event and we were incredibly lucky to have her at ours! Mary Rothe couldn't be nicer and more accommodating to work with. For any and all entertainment needs my first call will always be to Artists, Events & Entertainment Inc.

This is our 2nd year working with Artists & Events to hire the Champagne Girl for our Gala. It was such a big last year we had a special request from our executive leadership to invite her back. Mary worked with us in advance of the event on costume ideas to ensure we got a look we wanted.The team showed up on site the day of the event, paid attention to every detail and provided top notch service. The guests were wowed once again.I would highly recommend Artists & Events and the talent they bring forward for any event.

Mary Rothe at Artists, Events & Entertainment helped to provide the perfect entertainment for the Will County Walk to End Alzheimer's. Josh Patrick Holmes had a great set list that was upbeat and fit all ages. I heard multiple people comment that Josh was the perfect addition to the event and that he was so great. Thank you, Mary and especially, thank you to Josh for helping to create a fun atmosphere.

Mary and her team were absolutely amazing! She easily had the most competitive prices of all the entertainment companies I reviewed prior to our event. She gave me a long list of ideas and when I have her a budget she helped me narrow down to some of her favorites! The entertainers were all wow factors at our event! The sets were long and frequent making it well worth the already reasonable price tag. Mary herself attended our event and managed the talent. Seriously cannot recommend her enough!

Mary helped us with booking The Moods for our wedding and they were THE HIT OF THE NIGHT!!! Everyone was blown away at their talent, singing, dance moves, outfits, etc! I had people coming up to me all night asking how to book them in the future and "where has this band been all their lives?!" Also, our wedding photographer said The Moods were the "best band she's ever seen at a wedding!" That says quite a lot for a professional wedding photographer in Chicago. We cannot wait to book The Moods again in the future! Also, work with Mary - she is so helpful and wonderful!!!

And who knows, you might even be lucky enough to have ME performing for you, LOL! But seriously, you can't go wrong with Artists, Events & Entertainment. Give them a try and you'll be glad you did!

I have exclusively used Artists, Events & Entertainment to book talent for more than 15 years. What differentiates this firm is that the owner stays relevant in the entertainment scene and her reach is nationwide with regional expertise. The personal attention given to me as a client is unsurpassed. The range of artists that I need to entertain casino clients, and my budget for different events, is vast. Mary consistently delivers show-stoppers. Regardless of if I need to entertain 6,000 people for New Year’s Eve, or an intimate group of 20 high-end gamblers for an exclusive dinner, I can always count on getting compliments on the live entertainment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't I just find my own band on the internet?

Of course you could, but have you personally worked with this band in the past? We know every one of our acts and have a working relationship with each performer to ensure you get the best entertainment possible.

Can I find someone who is cheaper by myself?

Do you know they will show up? You generally get what you pay for, and when you hire AEE, you can assure you we have reviewed and know every one of our acts and can guarantee they will perform, or we will get you a backup replacement if anything happens.

What if I already have someone else booked who assures me they are great?

Getting a 3rd person opinion, particularly from someone who has worked with many entertainers would be a good idea. Most entertainers will think they are great and sell themselves on you, but unless you have seen their act yourself, as we have, you really don’t know what you’re going to get.

Why do I need you when I can find and book my own entertainer?

You work with an agency to make sure that if there is a problem, you are covered with other entertainers to replace them. If you book someone on your own who doesn’t show, you have no backup plan.
