Girl Bands in Middlesbrough

Book a girl band tribute in Middlesbrough

Whether it's a milestone birthday in Middlesbrough, an anniversary party near Stockton-on-Tees or a themed night anywhere in Middlesbrough, a girl band tribute turns a gathering into a show your guests will talk about. The same act has to work in a hotel ballroom one week and a village hall or back-garden marquee the next, and the best ones do.

Girl band tributes bring the harmonies, the outfits and the girl-power attitude, which makes them a natural fit for birthdays, hen parties and any night where the dance floor wants a singalong. Our girl band tributes cover the Spice Girls, ABBA, the Supremes and the Motown girl groups, and vintage close-harmony trios, from solo performers singing to backing tracks through to full live bands, most performing in costume as part of the show. Acts on our books include The Ultimate Spice Girls & Girl Power Party, Absolute ABBA Tribute, Sirens Of Soul, The Essential Soul Sisters, The Dotty Belles, The Angelettes and 90's Baby Show.

Hireaband has been booking live entertainment for parties and private events since 1999. Every act listed here travels to Middlesbrough as standard, and most bring their own PA and lighting and set up and clear away on the night — use the instant quote button on this page to check pricing, availability and exactly what's included for your date.

Middlesbrough has a wide spread of party venues, from Crathorne Hall and Solberge Hall to Acklam Hall, alongside hotels, golf clubs and village halls around Middlesbrough and Stockton-on-Tees. Whatever the setting, we can match the size of the act to the space, from a solo tribute in a function room to a full band in a marquee.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: £500 to £2,000, depending on line-up, date and season
  • Your quote shows exactly what's included, from travel to PA and lighting
  • Line-ups from solo tribute artists to full live tribute bands
  • Most parties book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday or December
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

The right line-up depends on the room and the budget more than the guest list. Solo tributes perform to professional backing tracks, need very little floor space and are the most affordable option. A duo or full live band brings real instruments, more volume and more of a concert feel, which suits a larger hall or a bigger crowd. Tell us about the venue and we'll point you towards what fits.

Prices usually run from £500 for a solo tribute up to around £2,000 for a full live tribute band. Where your date falls makes a difference — summer Saturdays and the Christmas party season book up first and cost the most. The instant quote shows the full price and what it includes, so there are no surprises on the night.

Every act's page carries video and audio of that exact show, so you can see the costumes, hear the voice and judge how close the tribute is to the real thing, rather than relying on a generic demo, alongside their full song list. Underneath are written reviews from people who have already booked them. Between the videos, the set list and the feedback, you can form a clear picture of the night well before you commit.

Use the instant quote button on this page and enter your date and venue to see pricing and availability straight away. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day itself. Every booking comes with a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the night if anything needs sorting quickly.

FAQs

Tributes to the Spice Girls and ABBA, Motown and soul girl groups, and vintage close-harmony trios in the style of the 40s, 50s and 60s.

Yes — the singalong hits and costumes make a girl band tribute one of the most fun acts for a birthday or celebration.

Yes — a marquee or a large room at home is a common setting, and a solo tribute in particular needs very little space. The same act can just as easily play a hotel function room or a social club the next weekend.

Usually, yes. Solo and duo tributes need only a small performance area and a standard power supply; for a full band, tell us the room and we'll check the line-up fits comfortably.

Typically £500 to £2,000, depending mainly on whether it's a solo tribute or a full live band, and on the date. Your quote shows exactly what's included.

Most parties book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday or a December date, when the most popular tributes go quickly.

“Well what can I say. Hire a band and absolute Abba well easy to communicate with. Debbie and the others from the Abba tribute were a pleasure to have in our home and they truly made our birthday celebration.
Everyone at our party really enjoyed the group and they got everyone dancing and singing. I cannot recommend Hire a band and Absolute Abba enough. I was concerned about hiring a band from the internet but I really need not worry, everything went smoothly.”

“The Dotty Duo joined us at Armed Forces Day at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. They were a pleasure to work with from initial enquiry to performance. The organisation preceding the event was excellent, and even last minute changes were responded
to helpfully and with grateful flexibility. On the day they gave two performances, looking and sounding wonderful. I would absolutely look to book them again and would happily recommend them, having booked them on a recommendation as is. Thank you!”

“Closing the evening out was the superbly presented three-girl vocal and dance act
The Angelettes.
This Motown-tribute show, performed by a trio of stunningly clad brunettes, could
conceivably become a market-leading attraction on this showing. Large theatrestyle
cruise venues must be the natural target for this act.
Image and dance skills dovetail perfectly here with considerable vocal ability.
This is an act which, if pitched correctly, could be one of the cabaret finds of 2012.”

“The girls were amazing singing 10/10 routine 10/10 costumes 10/10. Three of the
most stunning girls on stage that held a crowd all night. They got the bar singing
and dancing from the word go! This bar is normally empty around 9.30 on a regular
friday, not tonight , it was still very busy right till the end of the final set ! Well done
girls!”

“The Abba girls were very calm and professional. They gave me great confidence that it was going to be a great night even when there were issues with the venues electrics. They did not disappoint. Their performance was amazing, with costumes changes and audience participation. It was a fabulous evening and I won’t hesitate to recommend them. Thank you so much”

“This review comes with my highest recommendation. From start to finish we had a
memorable evening for my Husband's 70th Birthday. We are thrilled we hired Ella to co-ordinate our ideas for this special event and delighted to endorse their services.
Thanks for everything and the Dolly Belles were simply outstanding - everyone is talking
about you!!”
