Additional Upgrade Options
We love doing something a little different, and wherever possible we will do whatever we can to accommodate special requests without additional costs to you. However, we do also offer some excellent add-on options. Please see booking options for more details.

• The acoustic tent - No festival would be complete without the acoustic tent, and every wedding needs a little chill-out time in the early afternoon. Dirty Weekend will arrive early at your event and provide a 45-minute set of dreamy acoustic pop classics, chilled Live Lounge-esque re-imaginings and summer time vibes. 4pm arrival as standard.

• An additional festival set - Marriage may be about compromise, but on your wedding day you need to get your own way! If you just can’t decide between all the great festival sets, you can add an additional 40-minute performance. No early arrival time will be necessary here, timings can simply be arranged on your 3-week call.

• The Big Tamale - Maybe you're the kind of couple who can’t get enough live music. Maybe you need it all! Dirty Weekend will arrive early to perform an acoustic set, and then follow it up with FIVE 40-minute live sets! This option includes a 1am finish, which will normally be required just to fit in all that live music!

• Boys Of Summer Roaming Band - Fun, feel-good roaming performances with a full and upbeat sound! Dirty Weekend’s roaming band perform hits from The Beatles to Queen, Ed Sheeran to Busted and lots more. Creating crowd sing-alongs, amazing photo opportunities and a strong united atmosphere, this band are a real must for any drinks reception!

Amazing band - made the night!

booked Dirty Weekend for their event in Surrey December 2023

“Dirty Weekend performed at my husband's 40th birthday party and were incredible from start to finish. They helped us put together a great setlist, worked songs that we'd requested into the playlist between sets and then took the roof off with their performance. Would highly recommend!”


Really fantastic!

booked Dirty Weekend for their Wedding in Gloucestershire October 2023

“We thought the band were great, the set list was really good and they had an amazing range. The band learnt a song for me and also went the extra mile. They did a call with me prior to our wedding and had a really detailed sheet for us to fill out to make sure everything went smoothly which it did. I would highly recommend them.”

booked Dirty Weekend for their Wedding in Lincolnshire September 2023

“From start to finish, working with Dirty Weekend through Grant at Alive Network has been such a great experience. Grant was super helpful with organising the booking and any questions we had prior to being in contact with the band. Once we were closer to our big day, we were put in touch with Dave & knew instantly we’d picked the right band for what we wanted for our night. The set lists they provide are an array of different vibes which can suit you & your guests. Having our song for our first dance learnt was great & made it feel that bit more special. Can’t thank the guys enough for making our night exactly how we envisioned it to go. Even in the melting heat they played their hearts out & had so many compliments from our guests that made it indoors for their sets. Thank you again so much for such an amazing evening!”


Amazing performance from start to finish.

booked Dirty Weekend for their Wedding in Gloucestershire August 2023

“Dirty weekend were brilliant! We had such a good time rocking out to all of their sets at our wedding, and we had so many compliments from all of our guests. We loved the festival-style setlists, they have such a great repertoire, and the DJ option was a brilliant way to keep the party going. Jason was also lovely to work with in the run-up to the wedding, and very organised with the process of planning all the details for the big day. ”
