Carbone Entertainment is an event agency that specializes in pairing you with the perfect artist, performer, and activity to make your party that much cooler. Karen Carbone began her adventure into the event entertainment world on the boardwalk of Ocean City, MD. She successfully ran several popular hair wrap stands for over 10 years while cultivating her love of making people happy and meeting interesting characters.
Miles of hairwraps later (no exaggeration necessary), she decided to leave the beach for the greater DMV. She set up shop in Silver Spring, MD aiming to bring "a bit of the beach" to any and all types of events. As the times changed, services were added and her team grew. Carbone Entertainment now offers clients (ranging from Moms and Dads to Fortune 500 companies) all of the entertainment pieces to complete the most incredible event puzzle.

I just want to thank Carbone Entertainment so much! Tina was wonderful! My mom was so surprised, she cried. The performance was EVERYTHING and was the perfect addition to my mother's party! I'm sure everyone will be talking about it for weeks to come. I'm so happy I found your company. Thank you again❤

A lot goes into planning a wedding (To say the least!) From small gatherings to large receptions, it can be a daunting task. But after the locations have been decided and guest lists have been made; at the end of the day it's a celebration of everyone coming together to laugh, smile and just have a great time.
I wanted to create something special for my wedding day. Something unique that would be classy and unexpected. And Karen Carbone Entertainment did exactly that. From surprising friends and family the weekend before with selected songs performed by amazing carolers! To a grand finale' dance

As a corporate event planner, I feel so fortunate to have found such an incredible partner in Carbone Entertainment. Whether I need a mime, Accordion player, balloon artists, or caricature artists- I am always confident that they will send me the highest caliber people. We have partnered with Carbone for over 6 events and each time they exceed my expectations. From their Prince impersonator to their "living statue" every event element I have gotten from them has been a total slam dunk.

Thanks to Carbone Entertainment. I went for something funny, and funny I got. The Pickle was AMAZING. She delivered a flawless performance. My friend was in awe of the effort and humor.
The Pickle was personable and professional. Thank you so much. This was a birthday gift to remember 😊.
I would highly recommend a singing telegram.

Great experience working with Carbone Entertainment. Needed a last minute surprise for a birthday and Karen sent the BEST ELVIS SINGING TELEGRAM in the area. He was in character from the moment he stepped out of the car. He sang custom songs, posed for photos, and joked around before heading out. A great surprise and the perfect way to start a birthday celebration.

This is the 3rd time my family has used Carbone Entertainment and would use them again and again. So friendlyand easygoing yet very professional. We did the photos at both of our kids B’nai MitVah parties and skipped the photographer! So much more fun. Karen makes sure to move freely about the party capturing people having fun and at the end of the night,there is a favor for everyone and I got a big bag with lots of pics with different display options from frames to magnets and keychains. Their company has a HUGE amount of ideas and options for any celebration. We will be going back for more

This past summer was the second summer we used Carbone Entertainment for our day camp in Maryland. Karen is an absolute gem to work with. She's amazing with the kids and all activities run by her go so smoothly. The mobile escape the room is a very fun activity for all ages. The younger kids will need some assistance from the counselors, and the older kids were challenged and had a great time doing so!

Carbone provided face painting and a "build-a-stuffed animal" station for my daughter's 7th birthday party. They arrived well before the party started, were set-up and ready to go for the party's start. Both staff members were exceptional. The face painter's designs were beautiful and the build-an-animal station was very well run. Karen was a pleasure to work with. She helped me determine which activities to include and for how long. I highly recommend Carbone.

I hired Carbone for their custom cigar rolling for a private event. Karen was extremely prompt in her responses with providing clear options and pricing. You never know how a cigar roller will be in person until you use them but take my word for it, they came right on time with great attitudes, were extremely friendly and fun to be around, and most importantly, made high-quality, delicious cigars. Everyone was talking about how great of an addition to the event it was - I had peers say they were some of the best cigars they'd ever had! We will absolutely use them again.
