The veritable ceilidh club performed at our wedding yesterday and they were absolutely fantastic. Very patient calling and the transitions between songs were amazing. Above all they were all nice people and made everything really easy. Would highly recommend hiring these guys and girls.

We had the band at our son's wedding and they were great. They got everybody going and David's instructions were very good and very funny, too. Hardly anyone knew how to dance these dances, so chaos ensued in the most entertaining way. By the last song we finally got it and they kept playing for 15 minutes (!) because everyone was most enthusiastically participating. These guys are wonderful musicians and entertainers. Thank …

"Very good. Only 4 musicians and a caller turned up but was fine. Could have done with some incidental music during dancers' rest breaks perhaps, but overall an excellent evening. The caller was particularly friendly and approachable and yet was still managing to get people to listen and dance, despite temperatures in the high 20s ! Thank you for your help."

Hi Barbara, Thanks so much to you, John and Chris for the fantastic music and calling on Saturday. Even though the set was rather compressed by our over running speeches (sorry about that!) I know everyone had a brilliant time and really enjoyed it. I know you stayed rather later than you had planned and we really appreciate your flexibility. Thank again for a brilliant evening. You were really wonderful. And we loved hearing…

Silver Street Ceilidh are very professional band who were a pleasure to deal with throughout the booking process and on the day. The band was lively, got everyone up dancing and the instructions from the caller were very clear. We had such a fun evening and received lots of positive comments from our guests, many of whom had never been to a ceilidh before. I would definitely book them again and highly recommend them to anyone…

Frequently Asked Questions

I want to hire a ceilidh band in Manchester. How much will it cost?

The price a ceilidh band in Manchester will charge you for an event is between £300 to £1,920 depending on the number of members in the band you choose. Other factors influencing the cost include travel expenses and other additional services. Kindly go through Poptop for a personalised list of professional ceilidh bands for hire in Manchester and get an instant quote after filling in your event details.

Should I provide any equipment if I hire a ceilidh band in Manchester?

You will need to provide a parking area so the bands can access the venue easily. A safe, flat, and dry performance area will be needed if the bands are to perform indoors. You will provide the bands with chairs and shelter if they agree to perform outside to protect them from the sun. Most of the ceilidh bands on Poptop provide their equipment, including a strong PA system, microphones, and amplifiers. Our suppliers will deliver the technical requirements and instruments they will use in the event.

How much time does a ceilidh band for hire needs to set up?

Setting up the equipment before and packing after the event is included in the services the ceilidh band offers. The ceilidh bands will be available an hour before the event so they can set up their equipment. It will take a band between 60-90 minutes to set up and ensure an adequate sound check. Depending on their equipment, some bands may take up to two hours to set up. Also, the band will stay after the event for about 30 minutes to 1 hour to pack their equipment.
