Choosing the right band for your event always depends on the atmosphere you want to create. One thing is certain: you want them to make a difference, and choosing the right one is crucial for your event’s success.

Choosing the right fit for different atmospheres

More intimate setting:

A duo (guitar and vocals) or an acoustic trio (vocals, guitar and double bass or cajón) are perfect for cocktails, dinners or welcome drinks.

Fun and lively celebration:

Party bands or cover bands are great choices to make sure the dance floor stays full all night.

Personalised experience:

Bands like Rocktonight have a very eclectic repertoire and can tailor their performance to different types of events.

Important tips when choosing a band

How to choose the right band for your event?

Check their experience: Make sure the band has experience in corporate events to guarantee professionalism.
Watch live videos: Ask for footage from previous performances to see if their style matches what you are looking for.
See who they’ve worked with: Check reviews and speak with previous clients to get an idea of their quality and reliability.
Confirm technical requirements: Ensure the band can provide all the necessary sound, lighting and microphone equipment.
Book in advance: Experienced bands are frequently booked, especially during peak seasons.
Make sure their musical style matches your team’s preferences: You could even run a quick survey and ask each employee for their top 5 favourite songs.
Check if the band interacts with the audience: Are they just another cover band, or do they turn the show into a unique and interactive experience?
