At Wacky Wombat Entertainment we believe in creating fun and engaging moments of wonder that transport you to a state of play.
Established in 2017, Wacky Wombat Entertainment is one of the leading entertainment businesses in Gippsland. We specialize in circus performances, fire stunt shows and have access to a range of multi skilled entertainers, providing services to a variety of event types across Victoria.
We host birthday parties, workshops, and the all-important Circus School at the Wacky Wombat HQ in Bairnsdale. In addition to this we have a range of products available to hire including bouncy castles and family fun lawn games.
After engulfing himself in the world of juggling as a teenager, Ryan moved on to study at the well renown circus school, Circomedia, before cutting his teeth and sharpening his trade as a performer, busking on the streets of the UK. It was here that he learnt to engage with a crowd and understand what it takes to shine as a performer.
In the UK Ryan worked on many youth projects, as well as touring the country performing his show at many events and festivals.
In his twenties he embarked on an adventure, jumping on a plane to Australia where he busked both in Sydney and Melbourne before settling down with a family in East Gippsland.
In 2017, Ryan made the decision to provide the rural areas of Victoria with access to entertainment mostly found in the cities. This was the birth of Wacky Wombat Entertainment, which now has its own established venue, and team of entertainers performing throughout Gippsland and into NSW.
Whether or not you are joining us in the warehouse, at school, a local event, birthday party or wedding our team are on hand to create the magic, bring the fun and build memories with you and your family.
