Giant Tortoise

A Spectacle in Slow Motion - Perfect for Events That Want to Make an Impression

Step aside, ordinary entertainment - our Giant Tortoise is in no rush, but she’s stealing the show. Combining cutting-edge animatronics with charming character design, this one-of-a-kind walkabout act brings a life-sized tortoise to your event - munching, moving, and mingling with your guests in unforgettable style.


Why Book the Giant Tortoise?

Truly Interactive Entertainment
This gentle giant doesn’t just stroll past your crowd - she engages with them. Guests can feed her, pose for photos, and even receive a personalised Tortograph, all while being guided by her witty, knowledgeable keeper. It’s a walking, munching, slow-moving conversation starter.

Advanced Animatronic Technology
Far more than a costume or puppet, this animatronic tortoise is built with state-of-the-art robotics. She doesn’t tire, doesn’t sweat, and never breaks character. Designed for fluid, realistic movement and incredible stamina, she’s ideal for long-format walkabout events and large crowds.


Two Versions Available:

  1. Entertainment Focused
    Perfect for parties, festivals, shopping centre activations and corporate events, this version is all about charm, character and interaction. Expect laughs, selfies and squeals of delight as guests get up close and personal with a giant tortoise unlike anything they’ve seen before.

  2. Environment & Education Focused
    Ideal for schools, green festivals, eco fairs and science-themed events. This version encourages guests to think about biodiversity, climate, and the importance of slowing down in a fast-paced world. Educational, inspiring and totally unique.


Ideal For:

  • Festivals & Family Fun Days
  • Educational Events & Eco Campaigns
  • Shopping Centre Activations
  • Brand Awareness Events
  • School Shows & Outdoor Learning
  • Themed Corporate Parties

Hi Leslie, Thanks so much for organising all the acts. Firstly, you as a company did an amazing job at organising everything and appreciate you being so communicative and supportive with this booking. Secondly, all the acts were great and have rated them as so below. Everyone was really personable and wanted to make our event as much of a success as we did which was amazing.

I recently hired Chosen Events Entertainment to help bring some fun and flair to our drinks reception, and they absolutely delivered. From start to finish, their service was seamless, professional, and refreshingly creative. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Chosen Events Entertainment and will definitely be using them again for future events.

It was the first time that the Club has used a similar service and the dancers were excellent and also able to flex their approach to meet our needs (as the stage space was limited and headset mics in short supply). We captured some fantastic photos that show just how much our employees enjoyed the event and all the dancers were friendly and helpful. It helped us to get into the party spirit and also set the Western theme/tone really well
