The prices of hiring a wedding band or function band in the UK can vary depending on these specific factors.

• Number of live musicians in the band
• How far the band has to travel to your event location
• Their experience
• Your event date

Typically, the cost of a wedding band or cover bands for hire in the UK averages between £1200 - £1700.

This price is based on a 4 or 5 piece outfit traveling within an hour or so of their base location.

Wedding bands and party bands can cost less if they are performing on a weekday, have fewer members or the event is very close to their location.

On the flip side, larger outfits or specialist acts can cost more depending on their experience.

If you're still unsure of how much it costs to hire live musicians, get in touch with us for advice on hiring local bands or simply visit some of our bands for hire on our website and browse their guide prices for more information.

Whether you are hiring a wedding band or a standard party band for your event, the majority of party bands will provide 2 x 60-minute sets of live music.

Some choose to spread these performances out into 3 sets of 40 minutes each. Our bands for hire are flexible and can alter their performance times to fit with your event.

Usually, the timings for party bands and wedding bands are as follows.

• Band arrival - 6pm
• Set up and sound check - 7:30 to 8pm
• First live set - 9pm
• Second live set - 10:30pm

Midnight is often the standard curfew time for corporate events, weddings and private parties. However, many bands can offer longer performances at an additional fee that can include finishing as late as 1am or 2am. Different act types such as DJ and Sax wedding duos will perform set types of a different length so get in touch for more information.

Between providing live wedding music, our bands for hire will also provide background music in between sets and keep dance floors full with DJ sets!

When hiring party bands for corporate events or weddings, it is wise to allocate around 60-90 minutes for the band to unload their gear, set up, and sound check.

This time can be increased depending on things like venue access and parking.

If you are aware that anything may potentially lengthen the time your function band has to set up properly, let them know well in advance of your event date.

The best bands for hire in the UK are usually booked up between 12 and 16 months ahead of an event date.

Some of our most popular party bands and wedding bands are even booked up 2 or 3 years in advance!

As soon as you know your event location and date, don't hang around.

Whilst it is a good idea to read reviews of party bands and watch videos of various function bands for hire to ultimately come to a decision, waiting too long can leave you disappointed as someone else snatches them up.

Whilst these popular cover bands wish they could clone themselves, they can only perform in one location a night!
