Irish Bands in Leicestershire
Hire a live Irish band in Leicestershire
An Irish band turns any celebration into a proper session. In Leicestershire, Irish acts are booked for weddings, St Patrick's Day parties, milestone birthdays, pub-style nights and corporate events, bringing fiddle, whistle, banjo and bodhrán along with the songs everyone knows the words to.
Popular event venues in Leicestershire include Rothley Court Hotel, Quorn Grange Hotel and Willow Marsh Farm, and our Irish bands play events across Melton Mowbray, Hinckley and Market Harborough. Tell us your venue and the kind of night you have in mind when you enquire and we'll suggest acts that suit both.
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.

Check the room and any sound limiter before you choose. Acoustic trad acts work almost anywhere, while amplified Irish party and Celtic rock bands need power and floor space. For a céilí, the size of the dance floor matters most.
Expect to pay from around £600 for a solo singer or duo up to £2,500 or more for a full band. Line-up size matters most, then the date and extras such as a céilí caller or a longer set. Every quote includes travel, so nothing is added later.
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.
