“Absolutely phenomenal. They brought so much energy to the room and their performance and audio was so high quality. We lost count of the amount of guests that said that the band were incredible and that they were the best live band that they have ever heard. They really did make our day special. On top of this, they learnt our first dance song (their version genuinely sounded better than the original) and they catered to our tastes perfectly. So, so, soooo good.”

Nottingham Band Hire FAQs

If you’re not quite sure where to start with finding the perfect live entertainment for your big bash, then we’re here to help. Here’s answers to some of our most frequently asked questions...

Contact Us

How much does it cost to hire a wedding band in Nottingham?

For a professional, high-quality wedding band in Nottingham, prices typically start from around £1,300 for a 3-piece band, up to £4,000+ for larger showbands. This price doesn't just cover the live performance; it includes all top-tier PA and lighting equipment, travel expenses and a bespoke DJ service before, between and after the live sets to keep your dance floor full all night.

Do we have to pay extra for travel to Nottingham?

In many cases, no! Because our agency represents some of the most popular bands based right here in the Midlands, we can often offer exceptional value with minimal or zero travel fees for events in Nottingham, Mansfield, Newark and across the county. We also represent some of the UK's most premium function bands who regularly travel to Hazel Gap Barn and Kelham House Country Manor Hotel to deliver their live shows!

My Nottingham venue has a noise limiter - is that a problem?

We know that many popular Nottingham venues (like Hazel Gap Barn) have sound limiters or restrictions to protect their neighbours. This is not a problem. Most of our bands are experts at performing within these limits, often using electric drum kits or adapting their sound system to ensure the party vibe stays high without tripping the sensor.

Can the band perform for our ceremony, drinks reception or wedding breakfast?

Absolutely. Many of our evening party bands offer an 'Afternoon Add-On' where an acoustic duo or soloist from the band can perform during your ceremony or drinks reception. This is a very popular option for summer weddings at venues with beautiful outdoor spaces like Cockliffe Country House and Colwick Hall Hotel. We also get asked a lot if bands can play an entrance song for the wedding breakfast - this works brilliantly and most of our bands will combine this offering with providing a mic for speeches too.
