Mister Twister has delighted thousands of people with amazing balloon creations over the last 5 years! As his reputation has grown, he has traveled farther and farther to perform, entertain, amaze and delight people around Ontario. He once even traveled as far as Saint John, New Brunswick to perform with his balloons. When looking to book entertainment for your next event or party, it's nice to know that you can have Belleville's premier Balloon Artist, Mister Twister.

Hi I run a balloon twisting company here in Orange county. Me and my business partner are probably going to do some charity work on this day because of this. I might get some of my other twister friends in on it and see if I can't make this event something a little bigger. Who knows, but I definitely intend to participate. Let me know if theres anything I can do to help :)
