Trained character performers in screen-accurate costumes for retail openings, family days, brand activations, and corporate events with kid-facing components.

Broward corporate character work runs heaviest at Sawgrass Mills and Galleria retail openings (custom branded mascots to anchor the opening crowd), Hard Rock Hotel and Guitar Hotel brand-takeover events that want themed performers for music and entertainment activations, and themed performers for corporate murder mysteries and immersive employer-brand events in Boca Raton. Our Broward character pool is bilingual EN/ES with Portuguese and Haitian Creole sub-pools for Broward demographics. Captains run hurricane-season contingency planning and brief on outdoor heat realities for Hollywood Broadwalk and Las Olas summer activations. All staff are 100% W-2.

Hollywood (Florida) is the entertainment-and-hospitality anchor of southern Broward — the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and Guitar Hotel pull a constant run of music, sports, and brand activations, the Hollywood Broadwalk runs as a year-round outdoor brand corridor, and Hard Rock Live hosts major concerts and corporate-buyout events. We staff brand ambassadors and hospitality crews for Hard Rock Hotel buyouts, sponsor-zone activations and lead-capture for Hard Rock Live concert nights, sampling teams along the Hollywood Broadwalk, and family-day production at Hollywood Beach. Roster is heavily bilingual EN/ES with strong Haitian Creole coverage for South Broward demographics. All staff are 100% W-2.

FAQ · COSTUMED CHARACTERS in HOLLYWOOD

Questions Hollywood buyers ask about costumed characters.

What kind of corporate events use costumed characters in Hollywood?+

Retail grand openings, brand activations with family-day components, trade show booth attractors, sports promotions, company family days, and corporate holiday parties in Fort Lauderdale & Broward. Costumed characters pull foot traffic, anchor photo moments, and add a memorable layer to brand-led events in Hollywood.

What's the difference between a Showcraft character and a Characters.io character?+

Same talent roster, different lane. Showcraft handles the corporate side — brand activations, retail openings, trade show floors, and corporate family days in Hollywood. Characters.io handles consumer and private events. The performers are W-2 employees of the same parent company, with the same vetting and training standards.

Are your Hollywood character performers trained?+

Yes — every Showcraft character performer in Hollywood is a working actor with character-performance training (movement, in-character voice work, photo-pose discipline, guest interaction). They're not random people in costume; they're vetted performers backed by Characters.io's 18-year track record.

Are your Hollywood character performers W-2 and insured?+

Yes. Every character performer Showcraft deploys in Hollywood is a W-2 employee with workers' comp and general liability coverage. We issue COIs naming the venue and additional insureds. In California, the payroll structure is fully AB-5 / AB-2257 compliant.
