Function Bands in the North East
Function bands covering the whole of the North East
Whether you're planning a party in a city-centre hotel or a country house miles from anywhere, function bands in the North East cover the whole region. This page brings together acts that play everywhere from Stockton-on-Tees, Darlington, Hexham and Jesmond, so you can compare them side by side.
This region page covers Durham, Middlesbrough, Newcastle upon Tyne and Northumberland. If you already know which area your venue is in, the links below take you to the page for that area, with venues and acts picked for it.
Popular venues across the region include Solberge Hall, Lumley Castle, The Barn on the Bay, Close House, Middlesbrough Town Hall and Hardwick Hall Hotel. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we can usually say which acts have played there before.
Not every function band does the same job. Within this category you'll find three-piece party bands, soul and Motown groups, rock and indie bands and bigger line-ups with brass, and knowing the feel you want for your party makes the choice much easier.

Start with the space and the guest numbers. A smaller line-up suits an intimate room or a venue with a sound limiter, while a larger act fills a ballroom or marquee. Tell us the venue and numbers and we'll suggest what tends to work.
Expect to pay from around £1,200 up to £2,400 or more for a larger line-up. The act, the date and your set times make the biggest difference. Every quote includes PA, lighting and travel, so nothing is added later.
Each act'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.
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.
