Absolutely brilliant! Holly has really excellent skills, her talent, creative expertise is amazing. For us, Alan and myself, it was a new venture in staging a new ballet production. We we over the moon with the beautiful interpretation of the Christmas story “ A Christmas Eve, a Story of Nostalgia And Dreams”. All the dancers were so committed to the production, the dancing was wonderful, magical and a stunning production. We truly want to work with Holly and the dancers in 2025. Happy Christmas to everyone, and Best Wishes for the New Year, Alan Fullard & Anna Kelly

Why book dancers for your UK event

From ceilidh halls in the Highlands to beach marquees in Cornwall, live dancers transform any celebration into a head-turner. Whether you are planning a black-tie corporate gala in London, a laid-back birthday barn bash near Bath, or an outdoor festival-style wedding in Yorkshire, a professional dance act adds instant atmosphere and Instagram-worthy moments.

Dance styles lighting up Britain

  • Ballroom – classic waltz, quickstep and foxtrot for graceful first dances
  • Latin – sizzling salsa and cha-cha that tempt even shy guests onto the floor
  • Bellydance – shimmering hipwork and veil spins, ideal for interactive sets
  • Contemporary – emotive storytelling pieces that suit modern venues and arty crowds
  • Irish – high-energy reels and crowd-pleasing céilí workshops
  • Flamenco – passionate footwork, live guitar options and dramatic ruffled skirts

When dancers steal the spotlight

Weddings

Picture a seemingly ordinary drinks reception that erupts into a slick four-couple salsa flash mob just as guests gather for photos, luring everyone towards the cake table. Later, during the vows, a contemporary duet floats down the aisle to an acoustic cover of the couple’s favourite song, creating a goose-bump moment before the registrar even says “you may kiss”.

Birthdays

The guest of honour is handed a jangly hip scarf and given a fun, five-minute bellydance tutorial that ends with all the cousins in a follow-the-leader shimmy. As glasses are refilled, a live fiddle and bodhrán duo strike up an Irish reel; within thirty seconds, a céilí line snakes around the room, pulling in everyone from the six-year-old niece to Grandad with his walking stick.

Corporate events

Mains are cleared and the lights dip; a ballroom pair glides in with a Viennese waltz that makes every delegate sit a bit straighter. Speeches finish, espresso martinis land, and a flamenco troupe storms the stage with stomping footwork and guitar flourishes so infectious that the CEO can’t resist joining the final palma clap, sending colleagues back to the hotel bar on a high.

Matching venues to moves

Hotel ballrooms

Polished parquet floors and crystal chandeliers make every ballroom pivot and Latin cross-body lead sparkle, while in-house lighting rigs let you pick a soft amber wash for a rumba or bright white spots for a quickstep showcase. Built-in sound systems mean the DJ can fade straight from speeches into the dancers’ backing track without a single cable change.

Converted barns

Rough-hewn beams and exposed stone frame ruffled flamenco skirts and live acoustic guitar, amplifying heel stamps without the need for extra mics. Wide entrance doors allow easy load-in for portable stages, and packed-earth floors forgive the occasional enthusiastic zapateado.

Marquees

Open layouts give bellydancers room for veil cascades, sword balances and guest-participation circles, while translucent roof panels catch daylight for a soft, diffused glow that flatters every shimmy. Anchor points on the central pole can even support lightweight LED props for an after-dark encore.

Conference centres

Soaring ceilings and modular staging accommodate contemporary lifts, aerial silks and full Irish step troupes. Breakout rooms double as warm-up areas, and professional AV teams sync lighting cues with your presentation slides so the dance interlude feels seamlessly integrated—not tacked on.

Typical UK pricing

  • Solo dancer – from £200 plus travel
  • Duo – £300–£400, perfect for Latin partner work or contemporary lifts
  • Small troupe (3–4 dancers) – £400–£500 for fuller choreography, props or live musicians

What affects the fee

Quotes rise or fall with four key factors.

  • Travel – mileage, rail or overnight costs once the troupe ventures far from home.
  • Extra rehearsal time – personalised first-dance mash-ups or branded choreography add studio hire and choreographer fees.
  • Bespoke soundtracks – custom remixes or live guitar parts incur editing and licensing charges.
  • Peak dates – summer Saturdays and Christmas party season attract premiums; mid-week or off-season slots are cheaper.

Why book through Poptop

Poptop is far more than a simple listings platform—it’s your steadfast, time-saving partner for crafting an unforgettable event, providing expert guidance and real-time support from your very first enquiry right through to the last song of the night.

Quick booking tips

  • Measure ceiling height and floor area to ensure high kicks and quicksteps have space.
  • Ask for recent live video reels to gauge energy and audience interaction.
  • Two shorter sets often beat one long stint, giving dancers time for costume changes.
  • Provide a private corner for warm-ups and plenty of water.
  • If the venue is rural, budget a little extra for travel and overnight stays.

How long will a dancer for hire perform?
The average performance time for dancers is one hour. Other times are as follows: 1 x 2-hour set, 1 x 3-hour set + 10-minute break. The length is determined by your agreement with the dancer for hire. If you want a longer dance duration, feel free to discuss it with our suppliers. You may, however, be charged a little additional fee. Also, a dancer will set up before the event, and he/she will provide all necessary equipment and costumes for the performance.
Are there any space and technical requirements?
Yes, just a few. A private space to change into costume is required. Performance space requirement is very flexible, but at least 1.5m x 1.5m is required. With this, you can relax and watch the fantastic show our dancers will pull up. The dance performers will set up before the event, and they will also provide all equipment & costumes needed for the show.
