Irish Bands in the North East
Find Irish bands for your wedding or event in the North East
Whether you're planning a wedding or event in a city-centre hotel or a country house miles from anywhere, Irish bands in the North East cover the whole region. This page brings together acts that play everywhere from Hexham, Durham, Stockton-on-Tees 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 Newton Hall, Dalton Old Pump House, Acklam Hall, Northside Farm, Healey Barn and Beamish Hall Hotel. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we can usually say which acts have played there before.
The category covers traditional trad and céilí bands, Irish party bands and Irish singers. Their pages show exactly what each one plays, so you can match the act to your guests and your venue.
We've been booking Irish bands since 1999, and every act on this page travels across the North East. PA, lighting and travel are built into the quote, and you can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

- Acts travel to venues right across the North East
- Summer Saturdays and December dates book up first

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.
Smaller line-ups typically start from around £600, while bigger acts can reach £2,500 or more. Summer Saturdays and December are the busiest dates. The price in your quote includes PA, lighting and travel, so it won't change once you've booked.
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.
The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the event. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.
