One company for the music side of an event: a live band for the dance floor, a feature instrumentalist for the entrance, drummers for a moment of energy, and a DJ to finish the night.
What to book
- Live band: brass, percussion and vocals for galas and dance floors.
- Feature act: an electric violinist performing inside a lit cube, used for openings and transitions.
- Drummers and percussion: from a full kit to a street-style junk-percussion act.
- DJs: turntables and lighting for receptions and after-parties.
Planning notes
Typical GTA ranges, 2026: a DJ runs $900 to $2,500 and a four-piece band $2,500 to $6,000. Confirm the sound check time, the power the band needs and the venue’s amplified-sound cut-off. Request contact details through Get quotes.
