Photo of Luís Sousa Luís Sousa "What a fantastic show these two guys put on. It was truly incredible and all my guests loved their performance👌👌👌" Based in Faro Juergen Strafe - Birthday Party Photo of Paly Paly "Pali was absolutely incredible and truly elevated our wedding day. He arrived early, fully prepared and he worked effortlessly with the venue team to get set up smoothly. We gave him a very minimal brief, yet he completely understood the vibe we were after and nailed it. His music was the perfect backdrop for our beach wedding. It was relaxed, soulful, and effortlessly coastal. Every set he played created such a joyful, sun-soaked atmosphere that matched the setting perfectly. So many of our guests commented on how amazing the music was. On top of all that, he’s a lovely, polite, and professional guy. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you Paly for making our big day extra special! 11/10!" Based in Lisbon, Lisbon District Izabela Wisniewska - Wedding Photo of Luis Trindade - Acoustic Solo Act Luis Trindade - Acoustic Solo Act "Luis was an absolutely fantastic addition to our wedding celebration! He was so easy to communicate with prior and really made our day. He read the room really well and adapted the style of music throughout the day, ending on some big hits which everyone loved and really got the party started. Luis even played our first dance song which was extra special to us. All of our guests commented how great Luis was and it was a pleasure to have him as part of our day." Based in Faro Jessica and George - Wedding - Full day package Photo of Ricardo Pavalec Ricardo Pavalec "Thanks for a great show. Exactly what we were looking for." Based in Faro Gareth - Birthday Photo of Asgards Traditional Irish Music Asgards Traditional Irish Music "We couldn’t have been happier with Asgards at my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. They were absolutely fantastic and helped make a very special occasion even more memorable. The music was brilliant, the atmosphere was wonderful, and they kept everyone entertained throughout the night. They were also incredibly accommodating and made sure everything ran smoothly. Alison was a pleasure to deal with from the very beginning: friendly, helpful and so easy to work with. We’re very grateful to the whole band for helping make the celebration such a success. I would highly recommend Asgards to anyone looking for a brilliant band for their event."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring folk singers is €300, with prices from €130 to €1,000+. Pricing depends on the singer's experience, performance duration and whether they perform with a guitar, other instruments or backing tracks. Folk singers suit a range of settings from intimate acoustic performances to larger outdoor events.

The folk singers for hire in Portugal perform traditional folk, contemporary folk, Celtic, acoustic singer-songwriter material and folk-influenced popular music. Many folk singers accompany themselves on guitar, banjo or other acoustic instruments.

Hiring folk singers is ideal for weddings, pub and bar events, festivals, private parties, corporate dinners and intimate gatherings. The acoustic, storytelling style of folk music creates a warm, personal atmosphere that suits a wide range of settings.

Many folk singers offer flexible performance options, from solo acoustic sets to performances with additional musicians such as a guitarist, fiddle player or small ensemble. It is worth discussing line-up options with the singer when requesting a quote.

For small, intimate venues, many folk singers can perform without amplification. For larger spaces or outdoor events, a small PA system is usually needed. Most folk singers bring their own amplification equipment. It is worth confirming the setup with the singer based on the venue.

Many are writers as well as performers and will mix their own songs with traditional material and familiar covers. The balance is usually the booker's choice and most are happy to lean either way. For an event where guests should recognise what they hear, say so, because a set of entirely new songs makes for a different evening.

Singalong choruses are part of the tradition and many performers use them deliberately, choosing songs a room can pick up inside a verse. How far it goes depends on the crowd and the point in the evening, and a good performer reads that rather than forcing it. Events wanting a quieter listening set should say so, as the same singer can do either.

A live folk musician working a pub or bar usually plays two or three shorter sets across an evening rather than one continuous performance, with an audience that comes and goes. The setup is lighter, since there is rarely a stage and the corner of a room is the normal spot. Rates for this work differ from function bookings, so it is worth saying which kind of event it is when enquiring.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
