Where do you need New Orleans Style Entertainment?
FAQ about hiring New Orleans Style Entertainment
Entertainment from New Orleans is often vibrant and upbeat, with multiple types of performers. You can channel the famous Bourbon Street with a live party band and Mardi Gras performers. Or, keep it more low-key like the local favorite haunts on Frenchmen Street with a jazz band or brass band. If the bayou is more your speed, Cajun or zydeco music would be perfect.
On average, professional New Orleans style entertainment costs $750-$1,500. The exact price will vary depending on your location, the length of the performance, the number of performers, and their skill level. A single burlesque dancer will most likely charge less than a jazz band with multiple performers.
When hiring entertainment, it is important to look for performers who are experienced, professional, and have a good reputation. We recommend reading reviews from past clients to get a sense of the performer’s professionalism. You should also consider the type of event you are hosting and choose New Orleans performers who are appropriate for the occasion.
Performance length will often depend on the type of entertainer and the details of your event. Dancers and other solo performers are often booked for half an hour. Whereas, New Orleans bands are likely to play longer, with multiple 30-45 minute sets. Most entertainers can work with you to provide their services for however long you need.
It’s always best to book any type of entertainment as far in advance as possible. This is especially important for peak seasons like Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest. Calendars fill up fast, so you should start your search 6-12 months before your event if possible.
Most entertainers will be able to provide their own equipment. Although, it’s always a good idea to check with your venue and see what they might have available and to confirm any specific needs with the vendor before you book.
You can transport any event to the famous French Quarter with the right entertainment. If you’re throwing a wedding reception, prom, or private party with a Mardi Gras theme, then New Orleans style entertainment is a must.
Book dancers and live music to create a festive and celebratory atmosphere with a fun New Orleans vibe at your birthday party, parade, college event, or festival. You can also hire a brass band to honor a loved one’s roots and love of music at a traditional jazz funeral.
