Why We Exist

We believe business should feel larger than life. Idea Carnival was created to take visions that feel impossible — and make them inevitable.

By blending strategy, immersive creativity, and powerful partnerships, we transform businesses into brands people remember, experiences people crave, and ventures that endure.

The Vision Behind the Carnival

Amanda Contreras is the strategist and entrepreneur behind Idea Carnival. With decades of experience spanning entertainment venues, consumer brands, immersive décor, and service-based businesses, she has proven one truth again and again: with the right mix of creativity and strategy, empires can be built from any idea.

Her journey includes creating and scaling ventures like Fox in a Box Escape Rooms, Wild Goose Escapes, Utopia Studios Virtual Reality Arcades, Build-A-Scoop Nitrogen Ice Cream, Girls Night In, Scared to Sleep Haunted House, Freeze Monkey Treats, and more.

Amanda founded Idea Carnival as the hub for her empire-building philosophy — a place where others can now step in and scale their own vision.
