Function Bands in Berkshire
Hire a function band for your celebration in Berkshire
Planning a big birthday or anniversary means finding music that suits everyone from your oldest relatives to your youngest guests. A good function band manages exactly that. Hosts in Berkshire book these bands for 40th, 50th and 60th birthdays, anniversaries and family celebrations.
Berkshire has plenty of places to hold a party, from Coworth Park and Englefield House to The Great House at Sonning. The bands on this page travel right across the area, including Newbury, Bracknell and Maidenhead, and can play a marquee in a back garden just as easily as a function room.
Function bands come in many styles. Some focus on soul and Motown, some on pop and chart hits, and others on rock, indie or decade-themed sets. Their song lists show exactly what each one plays, so you can match the band to the crowd.

At a glance:
- Most function bands cost between £1,200 and £2,400
- PA, lighting and travel are included in the price you're quoted
- Choose anything from a trio to an eight-piece with brass
- Saturdays in summer and December go first, so enquire early
- A 14-day change-of-mind refund comes with every booking
A trio or four-piece is ideal for a party of up to about 100 guests or a venue with a sound limiter. For a big celebration in a large marquee or ballroom, a six-piece or bigger band makes more of an occasion of it. Tell us the space and guest numbers and we'll suggest what tends to work.
Most parties spend between £1,200 and £2,400. The number of musicians is the biggest factor, followed by the day and the time of year: a weekday date can cost less than a Saturday in summer. PA, lighting and travel are included in the quote, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay.
Rather than a generic demo, every band's page shows the actual line-up you'd be booking, with videos, audio and a song list. Underneath are reviews from clients who have already booked them, often at venues you'll recognise. Between them you'll have a clear picture of the party well before the day.
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 day.
