What is a tribute act?

A tribute act is a professional singer who performs the songs of a famous artist, often with a similar look and sound. It is a guaranteed singalong.

A tribute is always presented as a tribute. It is never the real artist, and we make that clear in every listing and quote.

Where it works best

Corporate parties
A crowd-pleaser after dinner.
Birthdays
The favourite artist of the birthday guest.
Festivals
Stage-ready sets.
Charity nights
A big draw for ticket sales.
Weddings
A surprise for the evening guests.
Christmas parties
A singalong headline act.

Which tribute acts can we book?

Tell us the artist you have in mind and we will tell you what is available for your date.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can. Friday and Saturday dates in December and the summer months go first, often months ahead. Short notice is sometimes possible, so it is always worth asking.

Do you work with our venue and event team?

Yes. We agree access, changing space, timings and any venue rules before the day, and work to your run of show.
