How much does it cost to hire Saxophone Players in Sydney?

$Low price
from$250AUD
$$Average price
from$650AUD
$$$High price
from$1,750AUD

Rates for saxophonists in Sydney run from $250 to $1,750+, with typical bookings around $650. Check what the figure covers before comparing quotes: PA and setup are usually included, travel may or may not be, and an overtime rate for running past the agreed finish is worth agreeing in writing rather than on the night. Most acts take a deposit to hold the date, with the balance due close to the event, and short notice tends to cost more rather than less, since a free Saturday in peak season is a date someone else has already turned down. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Photo of Saxophonist Landi Saxophonist Landi "My wife adores the sax and so I had to have Matt play for us during my proposal to her. I had a couple of requests for him like goo goo dolls, which he absolutely blew out the park, and we took a load of photos afterwards with him at Macqauries Chair, Sydney. Thanks mate so much!" Based in Sydney, New South Wales 6th October 2026 Harry - Proposal Photo of Rob Woodward (Sax Player) Rob Woodward (Sax Player) "I cannot recommend Rob highly enough.

It made the night very special. 10/10 would book again - highly recommend" Based in Sydney, New South Wales 22nd February 2026 Beck Robertson - Private Birthday Photo of Sax Entertainment - By Wattsonsax Sax Entertainment - By Wattsonsax "Alec was fantastic and very skillful. We had booked him for an outdoor micro wedding, he even supplied his own PA system. We gave him a list of songs to play from and just asked for a few specific entrance and exit songs which he nailed. Alot of the guest said he was the easiest the coolest part of the wedding Would book again as he was talented and easy to work with." Based in Leichhardt, New South Wales (3 miles from Sydney) 14th June 2026 James - Outdoor micro wedding Photo of PJ Solo Sax n Vocals PJ Solo Sax n Vocals "We had Paul perform at our engagement! He was absolutely amazing! He was so accommodating and was willing to help me make the event exactly as I envisioned. So grateful, will be referring him to all my friends and family." Based in Melbourne, Victoria (443 miles from Sydney) 12th October 2026 Laura - Engagement Photo of Saxophone Simon - Party Sax - Xmas/2026 Saxophone Simon - Party Sax - Xmas/2026 "Simon was absolutely fab! He took us through a lot of options and we went for light music during photos and with our DJ for the reception. Having Simon play was a real highlight of the day. He was amazing and so many guests said just how fun it was. There were a few songs me and Steve really wanted - he really got what we were looking for with the music for the day. We loved him and I don’t think it would have been quite the same without him playing and the atmosphere he naturally brought. Great guy and a really great day" Based in Wellington, New Zealand (1,383 miles from Sydney) Lacey Mulhearn - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

Hiring saxophone players typically costs between $250 and $1,750+, with an average of $650. Rates depend on the player's experience, performance length and the style of music. Saxophone is a versatile instrument that suits jazz, soul, pop and dance music, and many players also offer a sax-and-DJ combination for a fuller sound.

The saxophone players for hire cover a wide range of styles including jazz, soul, pop, funk, classical, R&B, dance music and smooth jazz. The saxophone is one of the most versatile instruments and can suit virtually any genre or event atmosphere.

Hiring saxophone players is popular for weddings, corporate events, cocktail receptions, private parties, DJ sets and restaurant entertainment. A live saxophone adds a sophisticated, soulful element to any event, whether as a solo act or performing alongside a DJ or band.

Many saxophone players specialise in performing live alongside a DJ set, adding an exciting live element to dance music. This combination is hugely popular at weddings, corporate parties and club events. It is a good idea to discuss this format with the saxophone player.

Many saxophone players are able to perform while moving through the event space, serenading guests at tables or during drinks receptions. Some use wireless microphone systems to maintain sound quality while roaming. Gig Heaven recommends confirming roaming options with the performer.

For small, intimate settings, most saxophone players can often perform without amplification. For larger venues, outdoor events or performances alongside a DJ, a PA system or amplifier is usually needed. Most saxophone players bring their own amplification equipment.
