Photo of George and Ringo's 2 Starr Revue George and Ringo's 2 Starr Revue "A superb show from start to finish. The musicianship was remarkable by any standards" Based in Manchester, England (11 miles from Bolton) 20th September 2026 Michelle Callum Jacques Photo of Mat Vickers Bass Player Mat Vickers Bass Player "Mat is a stellar musician and a fantastic asset to any band that has the pleasure to play alongside him. On and off the stage Mat is professional who will get the job done and a lovely chap that will get along with anybody. Always on time and always has his parts learnt. A solid, reliable killer player! (10 / 10)" Based in Newton-le-Willows, England (11 miles from Bolton) 18th April 2026 Jake Oseland - Professional Drummer/MD Photo of Stupid Girl Pink Tribute Stupid Girl Pink Tribute "The look is authentic, the songs are faithfully reproduced and the singer has great energy. What a show!" Based in Manchester, England (11 miles from Bolton) Mel - Party Photo of Young Lionel Young Lionel "I don't usually write reviews unless something is exceptional. I recently had the pleasure of seeing and listening to Young Lionell at one of his performances. What a fantastic show he put on for the guests. He was extremely professional and great vocals. He brought the party alive and I would have no hesitation to recommending him. Thankyou Young Lionell. Hope we will see you again" Based in Manchester, England (11 miles from Bolton) Mr S Littleworth Photo of Shirley Bassey Tribute Show Shirley Bassey Tribute Show "It was back to the tributes next with Dame Shirley Bassey being portrayed fabulously, in my view, by Carolynn May. Here we heard a top notch voice and the chosen songs were beautifully delivered. All in all, Ms May presents a whole package. I can see this fine artiste working the cruise ship cabaret scene and/or the better-quality hotel scene. Quote from Email sent from "Bournville Gardens Retirement Village" Birmingham Cathryn Boffey (Extracare) Carolynn May was a fantastic. The residents loved her brilliant show, which was just like watching the real Shirley Bassey. I think the standing ovation at the end of the evening said it all!! The residents have not stopped talking about her. Will definitely be having her back again. Thank You Carolynn. Quote from Lancashire Federation of Entertainment Secretaries : "CAROLYNN MAY. To open the show, we presented this charming lady, who is being hailed as one of the best entertainers on the circuit with her ability to give her audience a complete professional show. We add our accolade (Artiste of the Year) to her collection which includes Manchester, Huddersfield, and Tameside and many more…." Based in Manchester, England (11 miles from Bolton) UK Cabaret Magazine Photo of The Upbeats Duo The Upbeats Duo "We found ‘The Upbeats musical duo’ online and contacted them. They were quick to get back to us and communicating with them via email was easy throughout the preparations for our wedding reception. Peter and Rachel recommended the music for us, which was perfect, but were more than happy for us to give them a list of other music, if we had so wanted. From the moment they began singing, everyone was up dancing. We did ask for a particular song for our first dance and Peter and Rachel were only too happy to accommodate. We had the most amazing night, as did our guests. We highly recommend Peter and Rachel and will definitely be calling upon them for future parties." Based in St Helens, England (15 miles from Bolton) Debbie & Martin - Private Wedding

Frequently asked questions

Hiring tribute bands typically costs between £150 and £2,650+, with an average of £800. Pricing depends on the number of performers, show duration and the production elements included. Tribute bands cover a wide range of artists and eras, so the scale and complexity of the show is the main factor in cost.

The tribute bands for hire cover tributes to a huge range of artists and bands spanning every genre and era, from classic rock legends to current pop stars. Gig Heaven has tribute acts for hundreds of different artists, so browsing the category is the best way to find the right act.

Many clients book tribute bands for themed parties, corporate events, birthday celebrations, weddings, festivals and pub or club nights. A tribute band delivers the experience of seeing a well-known artist live, making them a crowd-pleasing and memorable entertainment choice.

The best tribute bands invest heavily in recreating the sound, look and stage presence of the original artist, including costumes, instruments and vocal accuracy. It is advisable to watch videos on each tribute act's profile to judge the quality and authenticity of their performance.

Most tribute bands are self-contained and provide their own PA system, instruments, costumes and staging. For larger venues or outdoor events, additional equipment may be required. Gig Heaven recommends confirming technical requirements before booking.

Many tribute acts build a main set around the artist they cover and add a second set of wider hits from the same era or genre. Others stay with the original artist throughout. Asking what a full evening looks like is the quickest way to know whether one act can cover the whole night.

Costume is central to most tribute shows, and many acts change outfits between sets to follow the artist's career. A smaller number perform in plain stage dress and focus on the music. Photographs and video on each act's profile show which approach they take.

Tribute shows tend to work well across age groups because the material is already familiar to most of the room. Acts covering artists with a long career usually have the widest span of recognisable songs. Set lists can normally be adjusted if the audience skews older or younger.
