Hi, I\u2019m Cathy Randazzo, and I\u2019m the proud founder of Bop till you Drop<\/em>, a children\u2019s entertainment company I started back in 2003 with one big mission: to spread joy to children and give parents the gift of a stress-free party experience<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n

My passion for what I do comes from a very personal place. As a performer from the age of five and someone who earned a Diploma in Performing Arts in 1996, I\u2019ve spent most of my life on stage, dancing, singing, and acting. But it wasn\u2019t until I created Bop till you Drop<\/em> that I truly found my purpose. I wanted to create something that not only celebrated children but allowed them to feel good about themselves, to dance freely without judgement, to be creative, to mix slime in whatever colour they like, and most of all, to feel confident, included, and proud of who they are<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n

As a mum to two beautiful daughters (born in 2012 and 2015), I also understand how overwhelming parties can be for parents. That\u2019s why I made it my mission to provide a complete entertainment solution where the kids are fully engaged from start to finish, so parents can actually relax, chat with friends, take photos, and enjoy the moment. Watching their child sing into a microphone, dance their heart out, or burst into giggles during a game is one of the greatest gifts we can give them.<\/p>\r\n

What began with Disco and Karaoke Parties has grown into something so much bigger. Today, we offer everything from Slime and Science Parties to Plaster Painting, Photo Booths, and even Stretch Hummer Disco Packages! Whether it\u2019s a small birthday celebration, a preschool or school disco, or a huge community festival with 500 kids, we\u2019ve done it all and we bring the same energy, care, and passion to every single event.<\/p>\r\n

With over 1,200 five-star reviews and multiple awards for Best Party Entertainer and Best School Holiday Provider, I\u2019m incredibly proud of how far Bop till you Drop<\/em> has come. We now operate in every state across Australia, and I\u2019m passionate about sharing this success with others. That\u2019s why we\u2019re looking for like-minded people to join us as franchise partners, so they too can build a rewarding, joyful business doing something they love. We currently have opportunities available in Sydney, Central Coast, Newcastle, Wollongong, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin, and Hobart. And next\u2026 I\u2019ve got my sights set on taking Bop till you Drop<\/em> global, watch this space!<\/p>\r\n

At the heart of it all, my goal is simple: to make kids feel amazing, and to let parents enjoy the magic of watching it happen<\/strong>. That\u2019s why I do what I do, and I wouldn\u2019t change it for the world.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
