Event creators, memory makers, idea generators
Hi. We’re Clownfish.
We’re ridiculously energetic, enthusiastic and exuberant about events and we can help you with:
Grin-inducing entertainment
Stunning sound, lighting and staging
No-need-to-lift-a-finger event management
We organise company events, community shindigs and private parties; the kind of events that people talk about loooong after the event.
Standing up against average-itis
The events industry is archaic, unregulated and full of average-itis.
Equipment is often cheap, tatty or damaged, entertainment is naff or non-existent, the AV isn’t reliable and, of course, it’s always someone else’s fault.
We believe events should make everyone grin from ear to ear.
So we’re on a mission to create memorable events that make guests feel giddy and event organisers even giddier.
“If you’re going to do something, you should make it abso-blimmin-lutely brilliant. Because who remembers mediocre?”
Matt Turner, Founder & MD
How we guarantee grinning, giddy guests
Our business may be run on fun but serious about events!
We employ event geeks with hearts of gold
We get our hands on the slickest AV equipment
We stockpile the most unusual and unexpected games and entertainment we can find
Infectious enthusiasm
We exist to make people happy. So yes, we are that annoyingly upbeat team overflowing with energy, enthusiasm and ideas. Even our tech team are unusually sociable and smiley.
“Somehow all members of staff are always enthusiastic and happy even in sub-zero temperatures. Love working with them.”
Positively Putney BID
Happy colleagues and happy clients
We’re generous with our ideas, energy and time. We bend over backwards for our clients and our team because we believe happy colleagues = happy clients.
“Clownfish seem to have a knack for hiring the best people. Always smiling and enjoying their work and managing on the spot requests with a willingness you don’t often find!”
Tracy Francis, Happy Customer
Picky and proud of it
We’re not interested in cutting corners. We own all our kit and we keep it pristine. And when you work with us, you work with us (we rarely outsource and if we do we’re very picky about who we work with).
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Callum, Tom and Alfie were amazing on the day and went the extra mile for us. Everything was easy and stress-free.“
Laura-Jane, Happy Customer
A force for good
We’re empathetic and accepting and we use our small but mighty business to do great things. We’ll always prioritise a heart of gold over qualifications. We mentor misfits and help them belong. And we look after our people and our stuff so we don’t have to replace them.

Smiley, happy people
“It was so important to me that this event went well. It was the first awards event for the magazine… we had so much good feedback, the atmosphere was great, the production worked so well. I just couldn’t say enough good things about it.”
Suzie Neuwirth
Founder & Editor-in-Chief, Peer2Peer Finance News
“It doesn’t matter which staff arrive, we always get the same service delivery. They work really well with our students, with our staff, with our guests as well too, and that’s really important in a school environment.”
ALAN FERNANDES
Bursar, Marymount International School
“Our fundraising has gone up significantly, a really big step up in our income levels because of the higher professionalism that we’re delivering with these events.”
Chris Hickford MBE
CEO, The Eikon Charity
“What I love about the Clownfish team is their can-do attitude. Nothing’s too big a problem, it’s resolved and you end up really with what I would call a perfect event.”
Diana Sterck
CEO, Merton Chamber of Commerce
“I was completely chilled from start to finish and that’s what made the family happy because I wasn’t stressed. It just worked really really well. I can’t say how happy I was.”
Katie McCormack
50th Birthday Party
“We had to spend no energy at all worrying about anything working correctly … because of what Clownfish were providing.”
James Pickles
Sales Director, Toluna
“The biggest thing on the day was the complete transformation of the room… It was essentially a big studio before and they completely transformed it into what was an incredible gala dinner.”
Jess Valentine
Marketing Manager, Surrey Sports Park
“The Clownfish team really made the whole day happen in a way that enabled BECK to carry on and enjoy themselves.”
Jonathan Dart
Finance Director, BECK
“The young team at Clownfish energises me and makes me look forward to the event itself… it makes it a really fun thing to be involved in rather than full of just stress and worries and so on.”
Michiko Delucia
Manager, Shinnyo-en Buddhist Centre
