Mariachi & Latin Bands in East Sussex

Hire a Latin band for your event in East Sussex

A Latin band gives an event instant warmth and energy. Across East Sussex, these acts play mariachi, salsa, samba, bossa nova and Cuban son for weddings, summer parties, festivals and company events, whether the brief is a full themed night or just a lively half-hour for the drinks reception.

Popular event venues in East Sussex include Buckhurst Park, Brighton College and The Grand Hotel, and our mariachi and Latin acts play events across Eastbourne, Lewes and Uckfield. Tell us your venue and the kind of atmosphere you want when you enquire and we'll suggest acts that suit both.

Latin music covers a lot of ground. Some acts are traditional mariachi groups in full charro suits, others are salsa and Cuban bands built for dancing, and others play Brazilian samba, bossa nova or Latin-flavoured versions of pop hits. Watching a couple of videos is the quickest way to find the one that fits your event.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched live bands with events of every size. The mariachi and Latin acts listed here all travel to East Sussex, 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.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: from around £500 for a smaller act to £2,500 or more for a larger band, depending on line-up, date and set times
  • Mariachi, salsa, Cuban, samba, bossa nova and Latin party acts
  • Strolling sets for drinks receptions and stage sets for dancing
  • Travel is included in every quote
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Check the room and any sound limiter before you choose. Acoustic mariachi and bossa nova acts work almost anywhere, while amplified salsa and party bands need power and floor space. For outdoor events, ask about cover and power for the band.

Most mariachi and Latin bookings fall between about £500 and £2,500. The number of musicians is the biggest factor, followed by the date and how long they play, and summer weekends are the busiest time. Travel is included in the quote, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay.

Each Latin 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 gets a crowd moving 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.

FAQs

The category covers traditional mariachi groups, salsa and Cuban bands, Brazilian samba and bossa nova acts, Latin jazz ensembles and Latin party bands that also play chart hits. Each act's page shows its style, line-up and song list.

Yes, that's what mariachi does best. Most mariachi groups play acoustically, so they can move between tables or around a garden during a drinks reception, a meal or a fun day. Check the act's page or ask us when you enquire.

Most do. Mariachi groups usually perform in charro suits and sombreros, and many salsa and Latin party bands have their own stage outfits. The photos and videos on each act's page show exactly what to expect.

Most do. Stage and dance bands bring their own PA; acoustic and strolling acts may need nothing at all. Larger line-ups need floor space and power nearby, so it's worth checking both with your venue, along with any sound limiter.

From around £500 for a smaller act to £2,500 or more for a larger band. The number of musicians, the date and the length of the booking make the biggest difference, and travel is always included in the quote.

Yes. Many couples book a mariachi group or a bossa nova trio for the drinks reception, then a salsa or Latin party band for the evening. Some acts can cover both, and we can suggest combinations when you enquire.
