World Music Bands in the North East
World music acts covering the whole of the North East
Whether you're planning a wedding or event in a city-centre hotel or a country house miles from anywhere, world music acts in the North East cover the whole region. This page brings together acts that play everywhere from Gateshead, Middlesbrough, Darlington and Alnwick, so you can compare them side by side.
Our listings for the North East take in Durham, Middlesbrough, Newcastle upon Tyne and Northumberland. Each of those areas has its own page too, which you'll find in the links further down, but the acts here will travel to any of them.
Popular venues across the region include Matfen Hall, Hardwick Hall, South Causey Inn, Slaley Hall Hotel, Close House and Solberge Hall. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we can usually say which acts have played there before.
The category covers ceilidh, Greek, oompah, steel, Bollywood and other world music acts. Their pages show exactly what each one plays, so you can match the act to your guests and your venue.

The North East is a large area, so it's worth mentioning your venue's exact location when you enquire. Acts based nearby often have more availability and more experience of local venues, and we'll point you towards them.
Expect to pay from around £600 up to £2,500 or more for a larger line-up. The act, the date and your set times make the biggest difference. Every quote includes PA, lighting and travel, so nothing is added later.
Every act's page has video and audio of the performers who would actually play at your wedding or event, a full song list and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to judge the style before you commit.
