How much do you typically tip a kid’sparty host at an outside venue? $25? $50? 15-20%?

She’s basically just setting up food and clearing tables, it’s a inflatable place so she’s not doing any of the entertaining herself etc.

The bill for the party will be almost $500, I feel like a 20% tip of $100 is a bit steep. Am I wrong?

Re: Tipping Party Host

My DH gave the lady 20% on a $600 party tab, I almost punched him when he told me. I personally think $25-$30 is good. I think I gave $40 to my DDs party host, but she went above and beyond that day so I felt like she deserved more. In the past I usually gave $25-$30.

In that instance I’d say $25 or $30.

We tipped $50 to each hostess at white post but they ran the party and helped a bunch of 2 year olds feed animals so they deserved extra.

My sister was a party host at Skyzone. $20-$25 would be the norm. She was very excited to get anything more. She did bust her butt though

I usually do $20-25 depending on how many hosts are working the party.
