Corporate Entertainment in Devon

Book corporate event entertainment in Devon

The right entertainment turns a company event from a work obligation into a night people talk about. In Devon, corporate entertainment is booked for Christmas parties, awards dinners, summer parties, conferences and client receptions, with acts chosen to suit the room, the audience and the running order.

Whether your event is near Exeter, Plymouth and Torquay or further afield, the acts here cover the whole of Devon. Local venues include Sharpham House, ANRÁN at Tidwell Farm and Huntsham Court, and it's worth checking with the venue where the entertainment will set up. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Watermouth Cove, Bickley Mill and Higher Eggbeer Farm, with details of each.

Most corporate events need more than one kind of entertainment across the evening. A pianist or duo for the drinks reception, something light during dinner and a band or DJ once the awards are over is a common running order, and many acts can cover more than one part of the night.

Hireaband has been booking live entertainment for company events since 1999. Every act listed here travels to Devon as standard, and the instant quote button on this page shows pricing and availability for your date.

The essentials:

  • Budget from around £400 to £3,500, depending on the act and the date
  • Solo acts through to full bands for large functions
  • Acts who can pause for speeches and awards
  • Everything included is listed in your quote
  • Change your mind within 14 days and get a full refund

Start with the timings. Most corporate events have a reception, a meal, speeches or awards and then a party, and the entertainment needs to fit around each part. Tell us the schedule and the venue and we can suggest an act, or a combination, that covers the whole evening.

Expect to pay from around £400 up to £3,500. A solo musician or magician for a drinks reception sits at the lower end, while a full band covering a gala dinner and party sits towards the upper end. Busy Saturdays and the December season sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performers you would actually book, along with their song list and written reviews from previous clients. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.

Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the event. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the night.

“The House of Lairds were amazing and helped us having a roaring time while we celebrated our anniversary. They coached us through the traditional dances and played so many of the great songs we flagged ahead of time. They had a good flow in the set and were just all around great people. Hireaband made it super easy to book and manage.”
