Event Bands in Devon
Find the perfect event band in Devon
A corporate audience wants a band that reads the room just as well as any wedding crowd. Colleagues and clients need a few familiar songs before they'll dance, and the band has to judge the moment the formal part of the night ends. Across Devon, event bands are booked for Christmas parties, awards dinners, product launches and summer socials.
Across Devon, our event bands play hotel suites, conference centres and private venues in and around Plymouth, Torquay and Barnstaple. Venues in the area include Rockbeare Manor, Upton Barn and Watermouth Cove, and our bands are used to working with event managers and tight schedules.
Event bands come in many styles. Some focus on soul and Motown, some on pop and chart hits, and others on rock or swing. Many can also play a quieter background set during a drinks reception or dinner before the main performance.
Hireaband has been booking live bands for corporate and business events since 1999. Every band listed here travels to Devon as standard, brings its own PA and lighting, and sets up and clears away on the night. Use the instant quote button on this page to check prices and availability for your date.
The essentials:
- Typical cost: £1,500 to £3,200, depending on line-up, date and season
- Always included: PA system, stage lighting and travel costs, in every quote
- Line-ups from three-piece to eight-piece, with playlist music between sets
- Corporate dates are often booked well ahead, especially for the festive season
- Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund
Room size and the shape of the evening both matter. A four or five-piece suits most hotel function suites, giving enough sound to fill a dance floor once the formal part of the night is over. A larger ballroom or conference venue carries a six to eight-piece easily, with brass or an extra vocalist adding weight.
Expect to pay from around £1,500 for a smaller line-up up to £3,200 or more for a larger show band. Line-up size matters most, then the date and extras such as an early background set. Every quote includes PA, lighting and travel, so nothing is added later.
Each band's page carries real video, audio, a song list and reviews from previous clients. A couple of clips will tell you far more about how an act works a room than any description can, so it's worth watching two or three before you shortlist.
