With Stranger Things Season 5 officially announced, we're throwing it back to one of our favorite launches with LEGO

We recreated the iconic Byers' living room, complete with an interactive light-up alphabet wall and authentic 1980s magazines, transforming it into the ultimate photo opportunity for fans.

A great reminder of how creativity and nostalgia can come together to build unforgettable brand moments.

*🏗️ Building the Magic: San Remo at Glastonbury 2025 🎪🌴*

Before the music drops and the crowd goes wild, the real magic starts with the build — and this year, *San Remo* was one of our proudest creations. From sketch to structure, our team brought the tropical party palace to life, piece by piece, under sun, wind, and madness. 🌞🌧️🌴

It’s more than just scaffolding and lights — it’s atmosphere, imagination, and a lot of elbow grease. Massive shoutout to our incredible crew who worked around the clock to transform a field into one of Glasto’s hottest dance spots. 🛠️❤️ San Remo Glastonbury

🌈 GUMMY TAKES GLASTONBURY! 🍬🔥

Area51 brought the chaos, the colour, and the candy to Glastonbury once again — and Gummy was front and centre, stealing the show! 🍭💃 From sunrise struts to midnight madness, our oversized sweet-toothed superstar danced, posed, and partied harder than ever.

Big thanks to everyone who danced with Gummy, grabbed a selfie, or just embraced the weird and wonderful. This is what festival magic looks like when Area51 rolls in. 💥

Until next time, Glasto… keep it surreal. 👽🎪

Our Story

Known throughout the entertainment and production industry, we provide a wide range of high-quality professional event entertainment, and class leading prop and décor solutions. Our unique selling points are our creativity, energy, dedication, flexibility and performance quality, along with our technical expertise.

Drawing on our extensive costume department, we also create and produce entire shows for corporate clients, clubland events and festivals. Area 51 is a major provider of interactive performers for parties and events of all sizes, offering engaging and colourful ‘meet-and-greet’ and ‘mix-and-mingle’ entertainers. Our costumed characters include robots, circus acts, glamourous cabaret and clubland dancers, exotic Rio carnival girls, suited and booted chimps, animatronic creatures – and so much more. We supply dancers, stilt-walkers, jugglers, magicians, musicians, contortionists, singers, make-up artists and acrobats.

Working out of a 10,000ft2 production workshop, Area 51 also make high-quality bespoke décor and props, and we’ve been responsible for many award-winning immersive events. Décor clients include Hyde Park’s Winter Wonderland, National Geographic, Thomas Cook, the QEII Centre, Scissor Sisters, Lady Gaga, Johnathan Ross and LinkedIn – for whom we created a series of ground breaking experiential conferences – and many more.

Area 51 not only provide outstanding theming, but we also have excellent and highly experienced events managers who oversee the entirety of the job, working closely with both the venue and the client to ensure the smoothest operation prior to and during each event.
