World Music Bands in Swansea
Book a world music band in Swansea
A world music band gives an event a theme people remember. In Swansea, these acts are booked for Oktoberfest nights, Burns Night suppers, St Patrick's Day parties, summer festivals and themed corporate events — anywhere the music is part of the occasion rather than just the soundtrack to it.
Popular event venues in Swansea include Fairyhill, Craig y Nos Castle and Morgans Hotel, and our world music acts play events across Swansea Marina, Llanelli and Neath. Tell us your venue and the theme when you enquire and we'll suggest acts that suit both.
Within world music you'll find oompah and Oktoberfest bands, ceilidh and folk bands, pipers and pipe bands, Latin and salsa groups, klezmer and Jewish celebration bands, and country and bluegrass acts. Many can also play a more general party set later in the evening, and their song lists show exactly what they cover.
Since 1999, Hireaband has matched live bands with events of every size. The world music acts listed here all travel to Swansea, 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 £600 for a smaller act to £2,500 or more for a larger band, depending on line-up, date and set times
- Oompah, ceilidh, pipers, Latin, klezmer, country and other themed acts
- Sets for a themed party, a full ceilidh evening or a festival slot
- Travel is included in every quote
- Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund
A three or four-piece suits most parties and roaming sets. For a large beer festival, a full ceilidh evening or a big corporate event, a five-piece or larger band fills the space properly. Tell us the venue, the theme and the guest numbers and we'll suggest what tends to work.
Most world music bookings fall between about £600 and £2,500. The number of musicians is the biggest factor, followed by the date and how long they play — Oktoberfest season and December are the busiest. Travel is included in the quote, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay.
Rather than a generic demo, each act's page shows the actual line-up you'd be booking, with videos, audio, a song list and client reviews. Between them you'll get a clear sense of the sound and the show 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 event. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.
