Function Bands in Cardiff
Live party bands across Cardiff
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 Cardiff book these bands for 40th, 50th and 60th birthdays, anniversaries and family celebrations.
Popular party venues in Cardiff include Miskin Manor, De Courceys Manor and National Museum Cardiff, and our bands play celebrations across Cardiff Bay, Penarth and the Vale of Glamorgan. Tell us your venue, or that you're hosting at home, and we'll suggest acts that fit the space.
Within this category you'll find three-piece party bands, soul and Motown groups, rock and indie bands and bigger line-ups with brass. Most will take a few requests ahead of the day, and many can learn a special song for a birthday or anniversary moment.
Since 1999, Hireaband has supplied live bands for celebrations of every size. The bands listed here all travel to Cardiff, bring their own PA and stage lighting, and include travel in the price. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

Plenty of our function bands play marquees in back gardens. The main things to check are a flat area for the band, a nearby power supply and a rough finish time that suits the neighbours. Mention it when you enquire and the band will tell you exactly what they need.
Expect to pay from around £1,200 for a smaller line-up up to £2,400 or more for a larger band. Line-up size matters most, then the date and your set times. 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.
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 day in case anything needs sorting.
