Irish Bands in Middlesbrough
Irish folk, ceilidh and trad bands for events in Middlesbrough
Few acts get a room joining in like an Irish band. Across Middlesbrough, 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 Middlesbrough, Irish bands are booked for events in and around Yarm, Guisborough and Redcar. Venues in the area include Rushpool Hall, Middlesbrough Town Hall and Solberge Hall, all with room for a céilí floor or an acoustic session during the drinks.
Within this category you'll find traditional Irish groups, céilí and folk bands, Irish singers and duos, and Celtic rock bands. Many can play a gentle set early on and a full party set later, and their song lists show exactly what they cover.
Since 1999, Hireaband has matched live bands with events of every size. The Irish acts listed here all travel to Middlesbrough, include travel in the price, and arrive with their own sound set-up where it's needed. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

A solo singer or duo suits a pub-style night or a small gathering. For a wedding or a big party, a four or five-piece band with fiddle and banjo fills the room properly. Tell us the venue and guest numbers and we'll suggest what tends to work.
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.
Each Irish 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 a band works a room than any description can.
