About Us
Zing-A-Gram was born in 1979 when a team of UAlbany graduates dedicated themselves to the goal of bringing a unique form of laughter and comedy to the Albany New York area. By writing an original script and delivering it with a zany, costume character, we have become the premier entertainment company in the Capital Region!
Over the past 40 years, Zing-A-Gram has expanded in many different areas to serve many different needs. Our specialty is taking a concept or theme and developing it into an event, hence our new name, Zing-A-Gram, Event Planning, Singing Telegrams and Balloons!
With several decades of party planning experience, we offer assistance in developing your theme/event from concept to completion and in between! A popular part of our business is still writing the comical, original scripts which we are famous for and look forward to helping you with your next event.

While reviewing our website, you will notice that Zing-A-Gram has every event covered. With our many talents, balloon professionals and event planners, your event is professionally developed to your specifications. Our clients can relax in confidence knowing that we provide quality services with every detail attended to, which is our pledge to you.
