A guide to booking

Hire Guitarists in Salzburg, Austria

Solo guitar works at almost every point of an event, from ceremony music and drinks receptions through to relaxed evening sets. Before requesting quotes, it helps to decide where live music sits in your day: quiet background playing during food, a featured moment such as a first dance, or both. That decision shapes the set list, the equipment a performer brings and the price you are quoted.

Set Lengths and Running Order

A typical booking covers two 45-minute sets or three 40-minute sets with breaks in between, though most performers will adjust timings to fit around speeches, courses and other entertainment. For drinks receptions, many guitarists play longer, lighter sets at background volume; for evening slots, expect shorter and more energetic performances. Agree the running order in advance and decide who will cue the performer on the day, so timing changes reach them quickly.

Venues, Power and Outdoor Ceremonies

Indoor setups are simple: a chair, a small clear area and a nearby socket cover most performances. Outdoor ceremonies and garden parties need more thought. Ask whether the performer can bring a battery amplifier or play fully acoustic where there is no power, check noise policies and finish times with your venue before booking an amplified evening set, and make sure there is somewhere dry and shaded for both the performer and the instrument.

What a Guitarist Costs in Salzburg

Guitar players in Salzburg mostly quote per set rather than per hour, starting from about €100 for a single instrumental set, with typical bookings around €350 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching €1,000+. Longer performances, weekend and peak-season dates, and sets that include vocals all push quotes up. When comparing quotes, check what each includes: amplification, travel and time to learn requested songs are sometimes itemised separately. Booking ceremony and reception music with the same performer often costs less than hiring two separate acts.

Reviews of Guitarists available in Salzburg, Austria

5/5 from 1419 reviews
Photo of Tim Scott Guitar Tim Scott Guitar "Those of you Clerkenwell types who frequent the Slaughtered Lamb or 19:20 can not have failed to notice an new industry resident on Great Sutton Street. Desso's impressive carpet portfolio can now be viewed at the company's smart new showroom - and, naturally, the design community was invited along for a sneak preview, and much more. Guests were treated to top live music and not just the superior Desso flooring products to whet their whistles. We must congratulate all involved, as the evening attracted an impressive array of those specifying types, as well as the usual thursday night Clerken-crowd. To use the Editor's favourite saying, it was smoother than n otter's pocket." Based in Munich, Bavaria, Germany (72 miles from Salzburg) 1st October 2026 MIX INTERIORS - magazine - Desso Clerkenwell Showroom Opening Party Photo of Chavée Acoustic-Duo Chavée Acoustic-Duo "Chavée Acoustic-Duo was literally so amazing. They are incredibly kind, thoughtful, communicative, and helpful. They are talented musicians who made my proposal feel magical. I am endlessly grateful." Based in Vienna (156 miles from Salzburg) 24th December 2025 Nicholas Ruskey - Proposal Photo of Bella Bella "Booked Bella Cover Duo for my birthday celebration and they really made the night special. Great energy, great music, and super easy to work with. Bella has an incredible voice — everyone was impressed — and the mix of classic and newer songs they played hit just the right tone for the evening. The 12-string guitar gave everything a rich sound, and the tambourine added a fun rhythm that got people moving. They were professional, showed up early to set up, and handled everything smoothly. Several of my friends already asked for their contact info for future events. Definitely recommend them if you want something elegant but also warm and full of personality." Based in Prague, Praha, Czech Republic (170 miles from Salzburg) 9th November 2025 Jirzy Horacek - Birthday Party Photo of Patrik Roncolato Patrik Roncolato "Patrik was great at communicating, was punctual on the day and brought fantastic energy and a brilliant set that our guests absolutely loved, I would highly recommend his services!!" Based in Montegrotto Terme, Veneto, Italy (181 miles from Salzburg) 7th September 2026 George Harvey Photo of Matteo Murari Matteo Murari "I would recommend Matteo over and over again to anyone who is interested in hiring a guitarist for their wedding or event! Matteo was not only an absolute pleasure to work with, he also is incredibly talented and a gifted muscian who far exceeded our expectations for music for our wedding. We were able to communicate easily in English (though I promise I am learning Italian, Matteo!) and across international time zones (between Italy and the USA). Matteo offered a fair price, learned music that we had requested for the ceremony and aperitivo, and, in addition to playing lovely music during the dinner, performed two classical pieces that were a highlight for us and for our guests. Matteo is a gem, and I would not think twice about hiring him if you appreciate the gift of music!" Based in Verona, Veneto, Italy (191 miles from Salzburg) 18th June 2026 Molly Mathes & Nate Campanile - Wedding Photo of Ivona & Marko Acoustic Ivona & Marko Acoustic "We had our wedding in Dubrovnik and Marko and Ivona were fantastic, they were so easy to deal with and were the perfect accompaniment to our ceremony. We would recommend them to anyone and could not have wished for more. Thank you!" Based in Zagreb, City of Zagreb, Croatia (195 miles from Salzburg) Sam - Wedding

The guitarists in Salzburg, Austria cover a huge range of styles including classical, jazz, blues, flamenco, rock, pop, folk, fingerstyle and acoustic covers. Many guitarists are versatile performers who can switch between styles during an event to suit different moments.

Outdoor playing is common for ceremonies and garden receptions, and most players are happy to do it given shade and a level surface. Direct sun and damp both affect a wooden instrument, so a covered area is worth arranging even in settled weather. Wind carries sound away quickly, so amplification is usually needed outdoors even for a small number of guests.

One player can usually cover the whole day, moving from processional and signing music during the ceremony to background playing over drinks and dinner. Timings are agreed in advance, since the ceremony music has fixed cues while the reception is more flexible. Where the ceremony and the reception are in different spaces, allow time to move and set up between them.

For small, quiet settings, many guitarists can perform acoustically. For larger venues, outdoor events or noisier environments, a small amplifier or PA system is usually needed. Most guitarists bring their own amplification. For the best experience, discuss the venue size with the performer.

Most guitarists are happy to learn specific songs for key moments such as a ceremony entrance or first dance. Many have extensive repertoires covering popular songs, classical pieces and jazz standards. It is advisable to discuss song requests with the guitarist well in advance.

Popular occasions for hiring guitarists include wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate dinners, private parties, restaurant entertainment and ambient background music. A solo guitarist provides versatile, elegant live music that suits both intimate and larger settings.
