Corporate Entertainment in Kent
Entertainment for company events in Kent
Company events have a different rhythm from private parties. Across Kent, businesses book entertainment for drinks receptions, gala dinners, awards ceremonies and after-dinner parties, where the act has to fit a schedule, read a mixed audience and keep things professional from start to finish.
Kent has a wide choice of event venues, from Port Lympne and St Julian's Club to The Beacon. Our acts travel to towns across the area, including Canterbury, Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells, so the location of your event won't limit your choice. Other venues in the area include Preston Court, Cooling Castle Barn and East Quay Venue, and each has its own venue page further down.
The best corporate acts are used to working to a schedule. They can pause for speeches and awards, keep the volume right during dinner and then lift the energy for the party, and they know how to play to a room of colleagues rather than a group of friends.
Hireaband has been booking live entertainment for company events since 1999. Every act listed here travels to Kent as standard, and the instant quote button on this page shows pricing and availability for your date.
The essentials:
- Prices usually from £400 up to £3,500
- Reception, dinner and party entertainment from one agency
- Christmas party season books up months ahead
- The quote you receive sets out exactly what's included
- 14-day change-of-mind refund on every booking
A networking reception or client drinks suits a pianist, duo or string ensemble at a volume where people can talk. A gala dinner or awards night often adds a band or DJ for the party afterwards. A Christmas party is usually about the dance floor, so a function band, tribute act or DJ with a live sax works well.
Most bookings fall between £400 and £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. The date and time of year make up the rest of the difference.
Each act's page carries real video and audio, a song list and reviews from previous clients. A couple of clips will tell you far more than any description, so it's worth listening before you choose.
The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the event. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the night.
