Live Band for Christmas Parties and Year-End Events
Jump to: Live videos · How it works · FAQ · Enquiry
The Jetset Society is a live band for Christmas parties, corporate Christmas parties, year-end events and New Year’s Eve celebrations. We play in Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland. The music starts festive and quiet. It plays elegantly through dinner and the programme. Later, it builds into a lively party.
In short: the right band for Christmas parties in Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland – from the company Christmas party to the year-end celebration.
A Christmas party is often more than a company party. It can be a thank-you to staff, a year-end event, a client evening or a business dinner – in international companies, the same evening is often simply called the holiday party. Sometimes it ends with dancing. So the music is planned individually around the occasion, the company and the schedule.
We plan the music so reception, dinner, year-in-review, awards and the party all work together. Seasonal songs are used sparingly and with taste – festive accents that keep the evening stylish.
The Jetset Society stands for real live music: flexible lineups, multi-part vocal harmonies and carefully planned live sets. Our core service is live music across every phase of the evening – through to the late-night party.
Looking for a cover band or a live band for your Christmas party? The Jetset Society’s strength is planning: we match lineup, arrangements, volume and energy to reception, dinner, the programme and the party.
Our flexible lineups run from 4 to 11 musicians. That covers smaller dinners. It also covers large year-end events with stage, technical setup and a party to finish. More on how quotes work is on the Pricing page.
The Jetset Society plays and sings 100% live – with no backing tracks. Every lineup from 4 to 11 musicians performs with real voices and instruments on stage.
In companies with international teams – including businesses headquartered outside Austria – hosting is available in English on request.
Many Christmas parties are organised by an agency or the venue. Dates, technical details and the running order are then agreed with whoever is running it – for agencies, wedding planners and venues.

Which music fits which Christmas party?
Corporate Christmas party
Companies need a professional setting. Discreet reception music, dinner sets you can talk over, support for awards or the year-in-review – and a lively party later.
Year-end event
At year-end events, the music can start out formal and ease into a livelier mood later. We plan the transitions from official programme to party with care.
Client evening & business dinner
For clients, partners and executive events, a controlled live band set is often ideal. Jazz, lounge, soul and pop lead the way. The event band page sets out how the same lineup moves from background music to a full dance floor across an evening.
Staff party
For internal celebrations, the music can get livelier later. The key is a build-up that first leaves room to talk, then brings more energy to the dance floor.
Festive dinner
For smaller Christmas dinners, a compact lineup is often ideal: elegant, restrained and refined – always in keeping with the evening.
Large Christmas event
Planning a larger event with stage, technical setup and a party phase to follow? A medium or larger live band lineup brings more presence and punch.
Music across the evening: reception, dinner, year-in-review and party
Reception & arrival
Discreet live music sets the mood and gives guests time to settle in. It supports conversation without ever intruding.
Dinner & networking
During dinner, the music stays controlled, pleasant and easy to talk over. Jazz, lounge, soul or elegant pop work very well here.
Year-in-review & awards
Music frames speeches, awards and transitions smoothly and lets each moment take centre stage. Timing, volume and clear coordination matter.
Later celebration & dance floor
If dancing is planned later, the programme can turn more modern, familiar and energetic. Think pop, soul, disco, rock and party classics from the repertoire.
How The Jetset Society uses Christmas music with taste and restraint
Christmas music can work beautifully at a corporate Christmas party, but it should not run the whole evening. We use seasonal songs in small doses – at the reception, as a dinner accent or as a festive start.
To give you an idea, a few titles from our own repertoire list: “Last Christmas” (Wham!), “All I Want for Christmas Is You” (Mariah Carey), “Driving Home for Christmas” (Chris Rea), “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” (Frank Sinatra), “White Christmas” and “Winter Wonderland” (Bing Crosby), “Feliz Navidad” (José Feliciano) and “Merry Christmas Everyone” (Shakin’ Stevens) – with “Silent Night” for the quieter moments. The full selection is on the repertoire list.
After that, the set can open up: soul, pop, jazz, lounge, dinner music, classics and danceable songs later. The evening stays festive and musically varied.
Very elegant dinner or hotel settings may call for a discreet jazz and lounge focus. More on the Jazz & Hotels page.
Which band size fits a Christmas party?
Right for smaller Christmas parties, receptions, business dinners, hotel settings or an elegant lounge format with controlled volume.
A flexible choice for Christmas parties that begin with reception and dinner, then turn livelier and more danceable.
Built for larger year-end events, high-profile corporate events, stage moments and a late-night party with more impact.
Why live music for a Christmas party?
A live band fits best when the evening should feel polished, personal and truly live. Reception, dinner, programme and party all gain a strong live character. At corporate Christmas parties, a live band ties the official part and the relaxed later part together.
Live music makes a Christmas party feel more personal. Quiet music for reception and dinner, accents for the year-in-review or awards, an energetic set for the party later in the evening. That gives the whole night one clear arc.
A live band is the right call when dinner music, atmosphere, stage presence and dancing later should come from one professional concept.
Planning, technical setup and quote
Schedule & event phases
Think about reception, dinner, speeches, year-in-review, awards and the party phase early. That way, music and programme work together. The corporate event band checklist offers a structured planning aid.
Technical setup & venue
Room size, number of guests, stage, power supply, setup time and in-house equipment decide the right sound and lighting solution.
Performance time & organisation
Performance time, travel, waits between programme items and a late finish also feed into planning and the quote.
Tailored quote
For a fitting quote, the date, venue, number of guests and schedule are helpful. Add the planned phases of the evening, rough performance time and the technical conditions.
All the technical points in detail – space, power, setup, soundcheck, volume and what each type of event adds – are on Live band, venue & technical setup.
How to choose a reliable Christmas party band
Experience with corporate events
A corporate Christmas party often has a reception, dinner, speeches, a year-in-review, awards and a relaxed party to close. The band should know these stages and play to them.
Dinner and party capability
A strong Christmas party band delivers both: a stylish, conversation-friendly start and a great party later on.
Controlled volume
Volume matters most at corporate events. The music should leave room to talk over dinner, then build more energy later.
Clear communication
A professional live band talks to the organiser and venue early. Room size, power, setup time, performance position, sound and lighting and the schedule are agreed in advance.
As a professional live music provider, The Jetset Society covers music, technical setup and schedule coordination, with a single point of contact.

Frequently asked questions about live bands for Christmas parties
Which Christmas parties is The Jetset Society suitable for?
The Jetset Society plays corporate Christmas parties, year-end events, staff parties, client evenings, business dinners and festive evening events. We perform in Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland.
Can the music be adapted for reception, dinner and the later celebration?
Yes. The evening begins with elegant, discreet live music at the reception. The music stays easy to talk over during dinner, then builds energy for celebration and dancing later.
Does The Jetset Society also perform Christmas music?
Yes. Seasonal and Christmas songs are integrated tastefully and sparingly, so the evening keeps its style.
Which lineup is suitable for a Christmas party?
The right lineup depends on the number of guests, room size, schedule and the impact you want. Smaller lineups suit the reception and dinner – jazz, lounge and dinner formats are available from 3 musicians; medium or larger live band lineups of 4 to 11 musicians bring more energy to the party later.
What defines The Jetset Society as a live band for Christmas parties?
Real live music, flexible lineups and professional planning. The Jetset Society matches the music to reception, dinner, year-in-review, key moments in the programme and the party.
Does The Jetset Society bring its own technical equipment?
Depending on room size, number of guests and technical requirements, The Jetset Society can provide sound and lighting equipment or work with the equipment already at the venue, coordinating the setup with the venue or its AV team. Details about the venue, room size, stage, power supply, guest numbers and the planned schedule all matter here.
What does a corporate Christmas party with a live band typically look like?
A proven structure is reception – dinner – year-in-review or awards – party. Subtle live music while guests arrive, and dinner sets that keep conversation easy. Then polished musical framing for the official programme, and danceable sets afterwards. The band adjusts volume and energy to each phase, so speeches and awards stay front and centre.
When should we enquire about a live band for a Christmas party?
Ideally in September or October. Thursdays and Fridays in December go first, as most corporate Christmas parties fall within a few weeks. If you are flexible, dates in early December or during the week are easier to secure. Short-notice enquiries are worth making too: if the date is free, a great deal can still be planned properly.
How much does a live band for a Christmas party cost?
Costs depend on lineup, performance time, date, technical setup and venue – you can find up-to-date pricing guidance on our pricing page.
What information helps with a quote for a Christmas party?
Helpful details include date, venue, number of guests, the planned parts of the evening, rough performance time, schedule and technical conditions. Add the mood you want – discreet, festive, danceable or formal.
How do I choose a reliable band for a Christmas party?
A reliable band for a Christmas party should be able to carry reception, dinner, programme items and the later celebration with confidence.
