For Stilt Walkers, the venue ceilings need to be at least 3m high. This includes the dressing room.

The venue needs to provide a private, secure dressing room for the performers on the same floor/level as the performance location unless there is elevator access.

The dressing room must be accessible to stilt walkers therefore there must have no stairs between the dressing room and performance area, unless there is elevator access.

The dressing room must contain a strong table (not a trestle table) for use of the stilt walkers to sit on to get up onto stilts.

The dressing room must have ceilings at least 3 metres high. (Unless agreed with FireFlow at the time of booking).

The dressing room must be large enough for all the booked stilt walkers to change and wear full costume.

The dressing room must be within a reasonable distance to the performance area.

Stilt walkers can't use flights of stairs but can use elevators. However the occasional step is not a problem.

The performers need a strong table to sit on to get up on to stilts. They put the stilts on as part of putting the costume on, so this needs to be done in the dressing room (it also maintains the magic to keep this out of sight of guests). Please see the above FAQ regarding what the venue needs to provide, for more information on the dressing room details. 

Stilt walkers can indeed go indoors (height permitting) and outdoors however stilt walking can be affected by weather. Please see the weather FAQ for more details.

Weather can affect stilt walking. Shelter will be needed if it is raining (sometimes umbrellas are enough) and strong winds can be dangerous. Stilt walkers may need to perform indoors or inside marquees if the weather is too severe.
