60s Tribute Acts in Manchester

Book a 60s tribute band in Manchester

A 60s tribute act in Manchester is one of the easiest ways to give a party a theme and a proper centrepiece. Hotels and function rooms around Manchester and Salford, social clubs near Stockport and marquees at home across Manchester all make good settings for birthdays, anniversaries, reunions and company celebrations.

Beatles songs, Motown and the Merseybeat sound still fill a dance floor, and they cross the generations better than almost any other decade: grandparents know every word, and so do their grandchildren. Our 60s tribute acts cover The Beatles, the Four Seasons, Diana Ross and the Supremes, Cher and the great Motown and soul acts of the decade, from solo performers singing to backing tracks through to full live bands, most performing in costume as part of the show. Acts on our books include The Essential Beatles, Just John and Paul, The Essential Jersey Boys, The Essential Diana Ross & Motown Show, Soul Sensations, Peachy Beat and The Authentic 60s.

Hireaband has been booking live entertainment for parties and private events since 1999. Every act listed here travels to Manchester as standard, and most bring their own PA and lighting and set up and clear away on the night — use the instant quote button on this page to check pricing, availability and exactly what's included for your date.

Looking for a venue as well? Popular places for parties in Manchester include The Midland Hotel, Great John Street Hotel and Victoria Baths, each with its own local venue page below. Our acts perform right across Manchester, from Manchester to Salford, and we can advise on what works best in the room you have booked.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: £500 to £2,000, depending on line-up, date and season
  • Your quote shows exactly what's included, from travel to PA and lighting
  • Line-ups from solo tribute artists to full live tribute bands
  • Most parties book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday or December
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

The right line-up depends on the room and the budget more than the guest list. Solo tributes perform to professional backing tracks, need very little floor space and are the most affordable option. A duo or full live band brings real instruments, more volume and more of a concert feel, which suits a larger hall or a bigger crowd. Tell us about the venue and we'll point you towards what fits.

Expect to pay somewhere between £500 and £2,000. The biggest factor is the line-up: a solo tribute to backing tracks costs less than a full live band. The date matters too, with Saturdays in summer and December in highest demand, while weekday and off-season dates often cost less. Your quote lists exactly what's included, with no extras added later.

Before you book, watch and listen. Every act here has its own page with genuine video and audio of their performance, a complete set list and written reviews from previous clients, so you can compare how each tribute looks and sounds and choose the one that suits your guests.

Getting a price takes seconds: add your date and venue to the instant quote. After you book, we look after the paperwork, the deposit and every detail with the act, and stay on hand until the night itself. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, plus an emergency line on the night in case anything needs sorting.

“Chloe and the guys were absolutely superb and it took my dad and his friends back to the 1950’s and the rock n roll they grew up with. What made it really good for them was seeing it being performed by a young enthusiastic band, just as it was when the were young, its not every night you see 80 year olds jiving...”

“Hi Nicola, I just wanted to give you some feedback from our party on the 12th with Just John and Paul.The boys were amazing everyone loved them. They arrived early and were professional in their approach and appearance I cannot say how much they made the night go with the great success that it was. Once again many thanks.”

“Wayne & Morgan, what can I say. You Had the Cowglen Golf Club bouncing last night. A full house for a top drawer act, you two guys sure know your stuff. The hard work you both put in is amazing. Soul Sensations will be back next year, we can't wait till we're dancing on the ceiling again.”

“Really great to see a Beatles tribute band who look like they're enjoying themselves and can actually play! Seen a lot of bloated pie eating, balding, boring ones who seem to have enlarged egos out of 'thin hair'. A lot of disappointing ones out there, this lot leave them far far behind, top notch!”

“They played a wide variety of songs, which appealed to all age groups. We had many comments from the guests to say how good they were as they were pitch perfect during every song and the harmonies were fantastic. The band were definitely money well spent and I would highly recommend them to anyone.”
