Photo of Luís Sousa Luís Sousa "What a fantastic show these two guys put on. It was truly incredible and all my guests loved their performance👌👌👌" Based in Faro Juergen Strafe - Birthday Party Photo of Ricardo Martins Guitarra Portuguesa/Fado Ricardo Martins Guitarra Portuguesa/Fado "Ricardo and his colleague were top notch! The music was beautiful and both musicians not only shared their extraordinary talent, but also answers our questions about the Portuguese guitar. Very professional and highly recommended!" Based in Faro Thaddaeus Smith - Private Party Photo of Fernando Siqueira Fernando Siqueira "Fernando was hired to provide music for a party, most of the guests were 'not young' so I had asked him to largely stick to music from the 80's or older. He played brilliantly with a range of music from at least 3 decades. Given the ages at the party it was amazing that he was able to get up to half of our guests up and dancing! That includes our most elderly guest, a lady of 97 years young. The quality of his performance made the party, our sincere thanks to him." Based in Algarve, Faro (17 miles from Faro) 1st October 2026 N. Crocker - Private birthday party Photo of electric Violinist Rudy Jacket electric Violinist Rudy Jacket "Rudy great artist and fantastic person! He made our day exceptional! Super available and kind.

With very short notice she delivered a beautiful performance for my husbands birthday. He’s a professional musician and very picky yet he and our guests were really impressed by her classical performance. We'd seen her before but this private performance was something else. Thank you for making his day feel so special. All the best from me and Simon" Based in Lagos, Faro (41 miles from Faro) Joana Dias Photo of Gaspar de Holanda Gaspar de Holanda "Our experience with Gaspar was amazing. Not only was he extremely professional and organized, he listened to our requests and accommodated without any hesitation. He is extremely talented and played amazing music to set the vibe for our cocktail hour. All of our guests were blown away by the music and his talent. I highly recommend his services."

Frequently asked questions

The average price for world music on Gig Heaven is €500, with rates from €140 to €1,800+. Cost depends on the number of musicians, performance duration and the musical tradition involved. World music spans an enormous range of styles and instrumentation, so the format and scale of the act are the main pricing factors.

The world music acts include performers from a vast range of musical traditions including African, Latin, Asian, Middle Eastern, Celtic, Caribbean, Balkan and many more. Many acts offer fusion styles that blend traditional sounds with modern genres.

Hiring world music suits a wide range of events including multicultural weddings, corporate diversity events, international festivals, themed parties, cultural celebrations and educational workshops. World music brings authentic cultural experiences to events and appeals to diverse audiences.

Many world music acts specialise in the music of particular regions or cultures and can provide an authentic experience including traditional instruments, costumes and customs. To get the best results, specify the cultural tradition you are looking for when browsing or making an enquiry.

Many world music acts offer drumming circles, dance workshops or music-making sessions as part of their booking. These interactive elements are popular at festivals, corporate events and school programmes. It is advisable to ask about workshop options when contacting performers.

Most world music acts bring their own traditional instruments, which are often rare or specialist items not readily available. For workshops where participants need instruments, these are usually provided by the performer. Gig Heaven recommends confirming what is included.

Line-ups run from a solo player to ensembles of eight or more, and the tradition usually sets the shape: some styles are built around a group of players while others centre on one or two instruments. Smaller line-ups suit ceremonies, receptions and background playing, while larger groups suit festivals and outdoor events. Supplier profiles list the sizes each act offers, and many will quote for more than one.

Many acts perform in the language of the tradition they play, and some mix that with English-language material across a set. Where the audience is mixed, performers often introduce songs briefly so the room follows what is coming. Ask at the enquiry stage if the balance matters, as it is usually straightforward to adjust.

Acts using large traditional instruments need more floor space than a standard stage plan allows, and some perform standing or moving through the room rather than from one spot. Performances that move need a route agreed with the venue rather than a stage. Giving the act the room dimensions and saying whether the performance is fixed or moving lets them advise on what fits.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
