Corporate Entertainment in Leicestershire

Book corporate event entertainment in Leicestershire

The right entertainment turns a company event from a work obligation into a night people talk about. In Leicestershire, 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.

Across Leicestershire, corporate entertainment is booked for events in and around Leicester and Loughborough. Venues in the area include The Hall Barns at Prestwold, Winstanley House and Beaumanor Hall, each with its own function rooms and event spaces. You'll find more Leicestershire venues below, including Quorn Grange Hotel, Brooksby Hall and Mythe Barn, each with its own page.

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 Leicestershire 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.

Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performers you would be booking, with videos, audio, a song list and reviews, so you can judge the act well before the day.

Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the event. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the night.
