Karl and the rest of the band absolutely made our night! They managed to wrangle a 100+ crowd and get them on their feet for a ceilidh. Karl was an excellent caller and adapted instructions and routines as he went, ensuring everyone felt welcome and included. The music was full of energy and exactly what we were after; as a family of Murphys, we were very happy with the song/dance choices and loved every second.
Karl was communicative throughout the booking and planning process, ensuring everything was prepped well in advance of our wedding day. We honestly could not be happier, and neither could our guests: it was the highlight of the night for many, and we couldn't have picked a better band.
A massive diolch yn fawr from Mr and Mrs Murphy!

Genuinely the best band and the best choice for our wedding day! We had a massive Ceilidh which was super fun! The band went above and beyond, setting up at the venue before guests arrived and sorting out all of our sound needs throughout the reception. Before the day, Karl had been really helpful and clearly communicated everything to us, and on the day everything ran so smoothly. Many of our guests said how talented the band was and how it was the best Ceilidh they’d been to. I highly recommend that you book them for your event!!

We knew we wanted a Ceilidh band from the moment we started planning our big day. I still cannot fathom just how amazingly priced and incredible Price of My Pig were! 🐷
A 5 piece band with caller, our guests are still raving about just how unique they were and how much they loved them!
We adored having them play for our wedding and I cannot recommend them enough! Absolutely superb entertainment.
They’ll be something guests will remember forever for sure! Thank you so much from
Mr and Mrs Walker 31.05.22 (we’ll upload photos when we get some back) all our guests were too busy dancing to take any of their own 😸

We could’ve have been happier with them. They were excellent. Polite, helpful, very professional and kept us entertained all night. We could not speak too highly of them and would recommend them without reservation.
They also play music for a disco too which worked well for us.

We hired Dancing Feet for our wedding in July. Since then, we've had so many compliments from guests who were so impressed with the band. Not only was their playing, dance calling and energy absolutely fantastic, Kate and Roddy's professionalism and flexibility really added so much to our day. I would recommend them to anyone considering hiring a ceilidh band for a wedding!
We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies
We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a ceilidh band for hire in Glasgow?
On Poptop, a ceilidh band will cost you anything from £750 to $1,100. However, because it depends on your desired band, this is not a set pricing. The number of band members and travel expenses are some of the elements that affect the cost. When you search through the list of ceilidh bands in Glasgow available for instant booking on Poptop, you can submit the specifics of your event, including the event date and location, to receive an immediate quotation.
What is the band lineup?
The ceilidh band for hire consists of a fiddler, an accordionist, and a "caller" who assists everyone in getting into the groove and learning the dances. The size of the band varies. You can expect at least 2 to 8 members in a band, with each member having their unique roles. However, in addition to other instruments, line-ups may feature guitars, drums, keyboards, and whistles. They specialize in upbeat and spirited Scottish ceilidh, American songs, traditional Irish music, and contemporary English songs.
Can a ceilidh band in Glasgow provide PLI & PAT certificates?
To ensure their safety, the majority of ceilidh bands in Glasgow are required to submit PLI & PAT certificates before playing an event. Safety is a top priority for our suppliers, who make sure that all equipment is well-maintained and tested before usage. If necessary, ceilidh bands will present a PAT test certificate. While it is understandable to be worried about your guests' wellbeing and the success of your event, you need to let the ceilidh band know that they must present a PLI certificate before the event. During the booking procedure, you can get confirmation from the provider.
