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

$Low price

from$230CAD

$$Average price

from$650CAD

$$$High price

from$1,700CAD

Rates for saxophonists in Surrey run from $230 to $1,700+, 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.

Penjani Chavula Music "We were thrilled to have Penjani play at our wedding - his talent and energy truly elevated the celebration and our guests loved him. He improvised beautifully over the melodies of our chosen songs and worked well with the DJ to create an unforgettable experience. He brought great vibes and professionalism throughout the night. Highly recommend for anyone looking to add a soulful, live touch to their event!" Based in Vancouver, British Columbia (17 miles from Surrey) Veronica Bodell - Wedding

Paul Wainwright "We had the absolute pleasure of hiring Paul Wainright for our business grand opening in Victoria, BC, and he absolutely blew everyone away! From the moment Paul started playing, it was clear we were in the presence of exceptional talent. His saxophone skills are world-class — smooth, soulful, and incredibly dynamic. Whether he was delivering silky smooth jazz standards, upbeat contemporary hits, or energetic dance numbers, Paul's playing was flawless and perfectly suited to every moment of the event. What truly sets Paul apart is his incredible vocal ability and the impressive diversity of his musical repertoire. He seamlessly transitions between genres, keeping the energy high and the crowd fully engaged throughout the entire evening. His solo performances are captivating and intimate, while his collaborative moments (when he brought in backing tracks or interacted with the guests) felt electric and professional. Paul is not only an amazingly talented musician but also a true professional - punctual, personable, and genuinely invested in making our grand opening a memorable success. He read the room perfectly and adapted his set on the fly to keep the vibe exactly where we wanted it. If you're looking for a saxophonist musician (or vocalist) in Victoria, BC who can elevate any event with top-tier musicianship, incredible range, and pure stage presence, look no further than Paul Wainright. We couldn't recommend him more highly - he was the highlight of our grand opening and helped make it an unforgettable night! Thank you, Paul!" Based in Victoria, British Columbia (53 miles from Surrey) 30th March 2026 Derek & Julie Sanderson
