Wedding Entertainment in Newcastle upon Tyne

Finding wedding bands and DJs in Newcastle upon Tyne

Slaley Hall, Matfen Hall and Close House between them host hundreds of weddings a year, and many of the wedding bands and DJs listed here have performed at all three. Suppliers cluster around Jesmond, Gosforth and Ponteland, with Gateshead drawing wedding bands and DJs who specialise in Gateshead quayside and converted-industrial venue events. Evening entertainment typically runs from £650 to £3,500, with solo and duo acts at the lower end and full live bands with production at the higher end.

County Durham, Northumberland and Cumbria are all within easy reach, and most wedding bands and DJs in Newcastle will travel to venues there without adding a surcharge. Ask about the venue’s noise restrictions before you book — many country houses and licensed barns have sound curfews and decibel limits that affect set length and the choice between live band and DJ. Get the specifics in writing from the venue and pass them to the act early; changes at the last minute can affect whether live drums, brass or full PA systems are permitted.
