Wedding Entertainment in Blackpool

Live wedding entertainment across Blackpool

Every couple wants something different from their wedding entertainment: a full live band to fill the dance floor, a solo singer for the ceremony, or an acoustic duo for the drinks reception. Whatever the format, weddings in Blackpool are covered on this page, in one place.

Whether your wedding is near Poulton-le-Fylde, Lytham St Annes and the Promenade or elsewhere in Blackpool, the acts listed here cover the whole area. Local venues include The Winter Gardens, The Imperial Hotel, North Promenade and Grand Hotel Blackpool. Ask your venue early about its finish time and any sound limiter, as both affect which acts suit it.

Not every act does the same job. Some are best for a quiet, elegant ceremony, others for a lively reception or a packed dance floor. Knowing which parts of the day you want to cover makes the choice much easier.

Since 1999, Hireaband has supplied wedding entertainment for couples right across the country. The acts listed here all travel to Blackpool, bring the equipment they need and include travel in the price. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

What to know:

  • Budget from £300 for a ceremony musician and £1,200 to £4,000+ for a band
  • Every quote includes travel and any PA or lighting the act needs
  • Many acts will learn a first dance or special song
  • Solo acts and duos can often be booked at shorter notice
  • Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund

A common pattern is a harpist or quartet for the ceremony, an acoustic act for the drinks, and a band or DJ for the evening. Share your running order when you enquire and we'll suggest acts for each part of the day.

Solo acts and duos usually start from around £300, DJs and smaller bands sit in the middle, and a full live band ranges from £1,200 to £4,000 and over. Summer Saturdays are the busiest dates. The price in your quote includes travel, so it won't change once you've booked.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performers who would actually play at your wedding, a full song list and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to judge the style and the atmosphere before you commit.

Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.

FAQs

Wedding Entertainment is the full range — live bands, solo singers, duos, acoustic musicians and more — so you can compare every option in one place rather than committing to one format first.

It varies a lot by format — a solo singer or acoustic duo typically starts from around £300, whereas a live band can be anything from £1,200 all the way to £4,000 and over, depending on line-up size. Travel is always included in every quote.

Yes — solo acts and duos are one of the most popular choices for smaller weddings, ceremonies or where budget or space is limited, and they're booked through the same instant-quote process.

Yes, every act listed here travels to Blackpool as standard, with travel costs already included in the quote you receive.

Many acoustic acts and duos can cover ceremony music as well as an evening set — check each act's own page for what's included, or ask us directly when you enquire.

Most couples book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday — earlier is generally safer the bigger the act, since full bands get booked up first.

“Deville were absolutely fantastic. Arrived on time and introduced themselves. After a quick chat about first dance off they went. Their set list was superb with a variety of songs to keep everyone entertained during the evening. We had great feedback from our guests regarding the band and would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a wedding band! Cheers guys.”

“The Milestones were amazing! Aside from being completely professional, they were so good at figuring out the crowd on our wedding night - our guests kept commenting on how much they were enjoying them and the song choices! We had so much fun, couldn't recommend them more”

“Hireaband are an exceptional company that made it so easy to organise a band for our wedding, we have recommended them to a lot of people and will do in the future. Rollindrones!! What can we say? They were amazing!! No one expected a band like them to exist and everyone enjoyed dancing to them. They really made our wedding day go off with a bang! We will, as many guests will, follow them in the future.”

“When we found out you were available for weddings we were desperate to see if you were free on our date. Hireaband was brilliant and confirmed straight away that we could book you. To say we were delighted with the whole day, but especially the reception party is a massive understatement. Our wedding was perfect and The Nicholas McDonald band played a massive part in that. Thank you all so, so much.”

“DJ Justin was brilliant. He fully understood the assignment and arrived on time. He had a great sense of humour and was really easy to talk with. He really understood what music we wanted and played our favourites. All of our guests complimented on how great he was. We also loved that he showed up in his kilt which added the perfect touch to our wedding day. Big thanks to DJ justin!”

“Absolutely Fantastic! We booked All Night Long for a corporate event held at Wyboston Lakes and everyone who attended thoroughly enjoyed it! A great mix of music, talented musicians and brilliant singers. Booking was effortless and very well organised. We couldn't have asked for more. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend for large scale events or smaller gatherings. Thank you again for providing us with such an enjoyable evening!”
