Pianists in Kent
Hire a pianist in Kent
A pianist is one of the most flexible acts you can book for a wedding or event. Across Kent, pianists play the ceremony, keep the atmosphere relaxed during drinks and the meal, and some sing as well for a livelier set later on.
Kent has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Port Lympne and Preston Court to St Julian's Club. Our pianists travel to towns across the area, including Canterbury, Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. Other venues in the area include The Old Kent Barn, East Quay Venue and Cooling Castle Barn, and each has its own venue page further down.
Pianists cover a range of styles. Some play instrumental sets of classical and contemporary pieces; others sing at the piano and can move from background music to a sing-along set later on.
Hireaband has booked wedding entertainment since 1999. Each pianist on this page travels to Kent as standard, and the instant quote button shows prices and availability for your date without waiting for a reply.
The essentials:
- Typical cost: £250 to £900, depending on how long they perform and the date
- Your quote shows exactly what's included

An instrumental pianist suits a ceremony, a drinks reception or a dinner where the music should stay in the background. A singer-pianist adds vocals, which works well for the aisle, a first dance or a later set where guests want to join in.
Expect to pay from around £250 up to £900. A ceremony-only booking sits at the lower end, while a pianist covering the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast, or a singer-pianist playing into the evening, sits towards the upper end. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.
Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performer you would be booking, with videos, audio, a repertoire list and reviews. Between them you can get a clear sense of the act well before the day.
Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.
