Q: How much do party bands cost in Penticton?

Reviews of Party Bands available in Penticton

5/5 from 2,462 reviews

Dirty Lil' Secret "Dirty L’l Secrets put on an outstanding show! From the very first song, they had the audience completely engaged and kept the energy going all night. Their classic rock setlist perfectly matched their upbeat personalities, and each band member brought incredible talent and professionalism to the stage. The lead singer’s voice was exceptional, and the entire group was a pleasure to work with. Many of the guests commented on how much they enjoyed the performance — a truly memorable experience!" Based in Kelowna, British Columbia (28 miles from Penticton) Joanne - Lake Country - Canada Day Event

THE LATIN LOVERS "So tight! So talented! Amazing performers with impeccable choice in both wonderfully well written originals and stunning covers of crowd pleasing favourites. One of my favourite bands I've ever seen!" Based in Nelson, British Columbia (103 miles from Penticton) Gee Campos

Annika & the Earthlings "Thanks for a fantastic evening! We have booked our next year's Christmas event, on Dec 5, 2026. Same venue. I would love if we can have the band play for us again!!! Kindly confirm. Mike" Based in Abbotsford, British Columbia (124 miles from Penticton) 21st March 2026 Mike - Coastland Engineering

The Unknowns "There are songs that just stand out because they are so different from everything out there. “Stay Down Kat”, by The Unknowns, is definitely one of those songs. There’s a suave, jazzy, bluesy feel to this song, with great lead and backing vocals. It’s sultry, sensual, mysterious, and controlled, yet it has its powerful moments. And who can resist a great sax solo? Those things will draw you in, and soon The Unknowns will be known." Based in Bellingham, Washington, United States (140 miles from Penticton) George Duchow - WRGG Radio

Michael.C "I hired Michael to play guitar at both public and private events numerous times and he’s always prepared and did a good job!" Based in Vancouver, British Columbia (160 miles from Penticton) 5th March 2026 Long Lai - Wedding and corporate parties

Sons of Granville "We hired them for our employee awards gala. The music was lovely. Everyone enjoyed it and raved about it. They added a touch of class to the evening" Based in Vancouver, British Columbia (160 miles from Penticton) Vicky Pascoe
