Function Bands in Gloucestershire
Party and function bands in Gloucestershire
A function band plays a much wider range of spaces than a wedding band ever sees. A milestone birthday, an anniversary or a big family celebration can land almost anywhere in Gloucestershire, and the band has to work just as well in a marquee on the lawn as in a hotel function room.
Across Gloucestershire, our function bands play hotels, golf clubs, village halls and marquees in and around Tewkesbury, Stroud and Gloucester. Venues in the area include Elmore Court, Kingscote Barn and Cripps Barn, and our bands are used to setting up in all kinds of spaces.
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 Gloucestershire, 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.

Most function bands play two sets of around an hour, with playlist music in between. If there's a moment you want to mark, such as a cake, a toast or a special song, let the band know beforehand and they'll fit it into the evening.
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.
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.
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.
