Irish Bands in Lancashire
Book an Irish band in Lancashire
Few acts get a room joining in like an Irish band. Across Lancashire, these bands play traditional jigs and reels, Irish ballads, céilí dances and rousing folk-rock covers, and they're a favourite for weddings, family parties and St Patrick's celebrations.
Across Lancashire, Irish bands are booked for events in and around Clitheroe, Chorley and Blackburn. Venues in the area include West Tower, The Shireburn Arms and Wyresdale Park Wedding Barns, all with room for a céilí floor or an acoustic session during the drinks.
Not every Irish act does the same job. A trad trio is perfect for a drinks reception or dinner, a céilí band runs the evening as a participation dance, and an Irish party band mixes ballads and folk-rock with modern covers to keep the dance floor full.
We've been booking live bands since 1999, and every Irish act on this page covers Lancashire. Travel is built into the quote, the band brings what it needs to be heard, and you can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.
The essentials:
- Typical cost: from around £600 for a solo singer or duo to £2,500 or more for a full band, depending on line-up, date and set times
- Traditional trad, céilí, Irish folk, ballads and Celtic rock
- Sets for a drinks reception, a céilí evening or a full party night
- Travel is included in every quote
- Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund
Start with the kind of night you want. A drinks reception or dinner suits an acoustic trad trio or duo; a wedding evening or big birthday suits an Irish party band; and if you want everyone up dancing together, a céilí band with a caller is the one to book.
Most Irish music bookings fall between about £600 and £2,500. The number of musicians is the biggest factor, followed by the date and how long they play, and St Patrick's weekend books up early. Travel is included in the quote, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay.
Every act's page has video and audio of the musicians who would actually play, their repertoire and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the atmosphere before you commit.
