I’ve been lucky enough to pick up a few kind write-ups, but this one made me grin from seven feet up: the team at Sheffield Events have featured me on their site — and turned it into something genuinely useful for anyone planning an event in Sheffield. So first things first: thank you, Sheffield Events. Here’s what the feature means, and how it could work brilliantly in your favour.
What Sheffield Events wrote about me
You can read the full piece here — Meet William Unicycle — and how to get your event Boosted on Sheffield Events — but the short version is this: I’m the seven-foot giant unicyclist you might have spotted rolling through the city. Friendly, playful and endlessly adaptable — family-friendly one minute, high-energy nightlife the next, professionally branded for a business the minute after that. If you’d like the fuller picture of what I do, my performance options page lays it all out.
The deal: book me, and your event gets boosted
Here’s the part worth reading twice. Until 1 September 2026, Sheffield Events are running something special: the way to earn a Featured or Boosted listing on their platform is to book me for your event. Hire me for promotional work, and Sheffield Events will get behind your business or event in return — putting your listing in front of the thousands of people who use their site to find things to do across Sheffield and South Yorkshire.
Think about that for a second: you get a striking, unforgettable live act and a promotional lift from Sheffield’s own events hub, all from a single booking. If you run a venue, a brand or a festival, that’s exactly the kind of double win the for businesses & venues page is written for. When you enquire, just mention Sheffield Events sent you — and once you’ve booked me, let their team know so they can switch your boost on.
What I bring to your event
I’m built to draw a crowd and get people involved. I can wear branded clothing for promotional bookings, help with QR-code campaigns and permitted leaflet distribution, and I’m made for photos, video and public reaction — the kind of content that keeps working long after the day itself. From festivals and walkabout entertainment to venue launches, brand activations, parades and Pride, I’ll shape the act around your crowd and your goals.
A proper thank-you — to Sheffield Events and Ace Media
None of this happens on its own. A big thank-you to Sheffield Events for championing grass-roots local talent and for building an offer that helps event organisers as much as it helps me — that’s a rare and generous thing to do. If you’re an organiser or a business, I genuinely can’t recommend getting listed with them enough.
And a heartfelt thank-you to Ace Media — the Sheffield studio who designed and built this very website, and who go out of their way to help artists and performers like me get seen. If you need a website, branding, photography or video that actually works, they’re the people I’d point you to.
Planning something people will remember?
I’m available for hire across Sheffield, Yorkshire and beyond. Tell me what you’re planning and I’ll take it from there — and thanks to Sheffield Events, right now booking me could get your event boosted too. Book me here, and let’s make something worth watching.
