Corporate Entertainment in West Sussex

Corporate entertainment in West Sussex

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

West Sussex has a wide choice of event venues, from Grittenham Barn and Two Woods Estate to Upwaltham Barns. Our acts travel to towns across the area, including Chichester, Horsham and Crawley, so the location of your event won't limit your choice. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Farbridge, Fitzleroi Barn and Cowdray Estate, 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.

We've been booking entertainment for businesses since 1999, and every act on this page covers West Sussex. You can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

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.

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.

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.

All our guests made for the dance floor and were thoroughly entertained and I can't recommend them highly enough. Delightful people and they certainly add value to your event!”

“Carlyle were absolutely fantastic, I've had such great feedback from colleagues on the band's performance at our 10 Year Anniversary party and people asking where we found them. Although a lot of our group were slow to get on the dancefloor, the songs and atmosphere created by the band soon got them going and everyone was up later in the evening. Loved the setlist, not a bad song all night!”

I know it was a long haul with 3 full day?s performances to deliver, plus the evening show at the jam house for the sponsors, but as always you and the boys delivered.and EdinburghJust a note to thank you and the band for another excellent show at Ruby's Summer Ball, we raised over”

“This is the 4th time we've had Jumpstarter for our staff party and they were amazing as usual. They are very organised, very flexible and most of all, fantastic musicians who know how to fill a dance floor. I would recommend them to anyone and will definitely be booking them for our next event.”
