80s Tribute Acts in Birmingham

Book an 80s tribute band in Birmingham

From function rooms at hotels around Birmingham and Solihull to golf and social clubs near Sutton Coldfield, and marquees going up in back gardens across Birmingham, an 80s tribute act in Birmingham can turn a party into a proper show. Milestone birthdays, anniversaries, themed nights and company celebrations all suit an 80s tribute act — and the act has to work just as well in a village hall as it does in a hotel ballroom.

80s pop is party music by design: big choruses, synths and power ballads that everyone sings along to, which is why an 80s night is one of the most-booked tribute themes for milestone birthdays. Our 80s tribute acts cover Queen, the Pet Shop Boys, Wham!, Duran Duran, Billy Joel and the synth-pop and power-ballad hits 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 Classic Queen, The Essential Pet Shop Boys, The Essential Billy Joel, Rocktail Party, LA Heat!, The Essential 80's, 80s House Party and Essentially Cher.

We've been booking live entertainment since 1999, and every act on this page covers Birmingham. Most bring their own sound and lighting and handle the set-up and pack-down themselves. The instant quote button shows the price, availability and exactly what's included for your date.

Across Birmingham, tribute nights take place everywhere from country houses to hotel suites and private marquees. Popular venues in Birmingham include The Grand Hotel Birmingham, Moxhull Hall and The Bond, and our acts regularly travel to parties in and around Birmingham and Solihull. Tell us where you're holding yours and we'll suggest acts that suit the room.

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

Start with the space you have. In a function room, a pub or a marquee in the garden, a solo tribute singing to backing tracks gives you the full show for the lowest cost. For a ballroom, a big hall or a crowd that wants live musicians on stage, a duo or full tribute band is the better fit. We can usually tell you what has worked in similar venues before.

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.
