Photo of The Not Quite Big Band The Not Quite Big Band "Wow wow wow! These guys were absolutely incredible! Words can’t describe! We hired the NQBB for our wedding back in October and we think it was the best wedding decision we made! Will was super through all stages of the process, from enquiries before booking, through to set list selections and sorting out logistics, he was so friendly, with excellent communication and always had time to answer our queries. On the day itself they arrived in plenty of time to set up and you could tell the guests were getting excited for what was to come. It was what we were most looking forward to about the day and it more than exceeded our expectations! What was wonderful was seeing everyone dancing - all the generations. They are such amazing performers and so engaging getting all on the dance floor involved! Our guests are still raving about ‘THE band’ and rightly so! Thank you so much NQBB, you most certainly made the day!" Based in Manchester, England (15 miles from Warrington) Pip J - Wedding Photo of BigBandeoke BigBandeoke "These guys were brilliant, will definitely book again!" Based in Manchester, England (15 miles from Warrington) Jane D. Owens - Wedding Photo of Andy King of Swing Andy King of Swing "Andy came and performed for us and we all absolutely loved it. During the daytime he delivers a lovely, relaxed jazzy set and in the evening had everyone up dancing to the classic hits of Sinatra etc. All of my guests commented on how brilliant he was and I’d recommend him 100% He was such a nice guy too and went out of his way to accommodate all of our requirements." Based in Heswall, England (22 miles from Warrington) Joanne Starkey - St Pauls Photo of Justin Holcroft Justin Holcroft "Justin’s performance was intimate and stunning at the same time. Great communication, very effective preparation and coverage by someone who can play the sax, from Jazz, swing to lounge and bar background music. We would highly recommend Justin to anyone interested in high-quality, paired with a down-to-earth mindset and to-the-point delivery." Based in Audley, England (26 miles from Warrington) 27th May 2026 Axel Dewitz - Birthday Celebration, Reception Photo of Rich Hazlewood Rich Hazlewood "We had the pleasure of Rich singing last night at my Dad’s 80th party. What a voice and he played a great selection of songs which everyone loved. He made the atmosphere amazing and everyone was dancing, or foot tapping! If you are looking for the wow factor , this guy has it all. We will definitely book him again. Thanks Rich, you put a smile on many faces, and I’m sure everyone is still humming those tunes this morning 😊" Based in Leek, England (30 miles from Warrington) Sharon Dysart-Chesworth - Private Party Photo of Nightflyers Big Band Nightflyers Big Band "I have seen them play twice at Leeds Jazz Club.

Frequently asked questions

Hiring big bands typically costs between £150 and £3,000+, with an average of £500. The biggest factor in pricing is the number of musicians, as big bands range from around ten players to full ensembles of twenty or more. Performance duration and whether the band includes featured vocalists also affect the cost.

The big bands for hire typically feature between 10 and 20 musicians, including a horn section (trumpets, trombones, saxophones), a rhythm section (drums, bass, piano, guitar) and one or more vocalists. Some big bands on Gig Heaven offer flexible line-ups to suit different venue sizes and budgets.

Hiring big bands is ideal for black-tie dinners, gala events, weddings, corporate parties and ballroom dances. The full, rich sound of a big band creates a sense of occasion and glamour, and is especially effective for events with a swing, jazz or vintage theme.

Because of the number of musicians involved, big bands typically need a larger performance area than a standard band. A space of around 8 by 5 metres is common for a full line-up, though this varies. It is worth discussing staging requirements with the band to ensure the venue can accommodate them comfortably.
