Live Band Pricing and Costs

How much should you budget?
For a typical evening event, most bookings fall between approx. EUR 2,600 and EUR 7,800. This applies to weddings, balls, galas, corporate events, Christmas parties and private celebrations with live music in the evening.
- Smaller lineups cost less. Larger lineups create more sound and stage impact.
- The price includes more than the visible show time.
- Setup, soundcheck, teardown, preparation and coordination are part of the work.
- Shorter shows and special setups are calculated separately.
Arrival, setup, soundcheck, live performance, teardown and return travel are part of a normal full evening booking.
Lineup size, playing time, venue, technical setup, travel and the number of music phases are the main factors.
Date, venue, event type, guest count and rough schedule are enough for a first recommendation.
