Photo of Cecil Jones CJ Cecil Jones CJ "We honestly couldn’t recommend Cecil enough! He was absolutely brilliant and made our wedding day even more special. The saxophone brought such an amazing atmosphere and energy to the day, and our guests loved it. Cecil was professional, friendly and incredibly talented, and the music was perfect for the occasion. We’ve had so many compliments from our guests about how good he was. Thank you so much, Cecil, for helping make our wedding day so memorable. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a saxophonist for their special occasion! 🎷🙌🏾" Based in Hull, England (16 miles from Grimsby) 6th October 2026 Eric - Wedding Photo of La Bonne Melodie La Bonne Melodie "It was a fantastic evening and you were very very well received by the audience."

Based in Leeds, England (62 miles from Grimsby) Jane - Wedding Photo of Nell Violinist Nell Violinist "Nell played at our wedding ceremony and drinks reception and her playing really set the tone for the day. Beautiful classical music for our ceremony and more up beat music for our reception. We would highly recommend her!" Based in Matlock, England (68 miles from Grimsby) 26th August 2026 Molly & James Photo of Emperor SeyePaul Emperor SeyePaul "Lively, jolly, and highly danceable music. No dull moment throughout. Quality instrumentation and beats. Fun-filled atmosphere throughout. Will surely have them again at other celebrations in future." Based in Norwich, England (86 miles from Grimsby) 11th February 2026 Toyin - Funeral Photo of Shindig Wedding Band Shindig Wedding Band "Simply the best. As I said many times, we were not looking for a wedding band in Ireland, we wanted an Irish Band that does weddings. Well we found them. In March of 2024 my wife and I were in Ireland to preview my daughter's wedding venue in Co. Monaghan at Castle Leslie. We did not have a band yet and happened into Temple Bar and fortunately for us Sparky was playing with an awesome fiddle player and we were hooked. Quick conversation and some planning with Gav and they were booked. They were incredibly accommodating and helped coordinate all of the music for the day including ceremony, Cocktail 2 Hours(!), Shindig for the evening and even a DJ inserted in the middle. They also worked with me and my band to do some of the first dances etc. for my daughter and our families. As a musician myself, I know good when I see it and these guys were awesome! I can't wait to play with them again!" Based in Manchester, England (89 miles from Grimsby) 7th February 2026 Tim Pitney - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

The average price for world music on Gig Heaven is £420, with rates from £120 to £1,550+. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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