Wedding Entertainment in North Yorkshire

Bands, DJs and wedding acts in North Yorkshire

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 North Yorkshire are covered on this page, in one place.

Across North Yorkshire, our wedding acts play country houses, barns, hotels and marquees in and around Scarborough, Whitby and Harrogate. Venues in the area include Sandburn Hall, Howard Court and Raven Hall, each with its own space and finish time, which we'll check with the act for you.

The formats differ a lot. A live band brings energy and a show, a DJ gives you any song you like, and a solo singer or duo suits a ceremony or drinks reception without overwhelming the room. Many couples book one act for the day and another for the evening.

Hireaband has been booking live wedding entertainment since 1999. Every act listed here travels to North Yorkshire as standard, and PA, lighting (where relevant) and travel costs are always included in the quote you receive.

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

Room size and the moment in the day both matter. A solo singer or acoustic duo suits a ceremony or drinks reception without overwhelming the space, while a larger band is the right call for filling a dance floor in a ballroom or marquee later in the evening.

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.

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, so it's worth watching two or three before you shortlist.

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.
