Celebrity and Entertainment Booking Costs - June 2010

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

Since Britain’s Got Talent series 4 finished on 5th June 2010, our offices have been inundated with a record number of enquiries from individuals, businesses and other organisations looking to hire acts from the show for upcoming live events. We are asked on a daily basis “how much does it cost to hire Britain’s Got Talent acts?” Unfortunately, it is not possible to give a uniform answer to this question. Costs to hire BGT acts can and do change on a daily basis according to a wide range of factors such as demand, availability and popularity. In addition, the specifics of each individual event will impact on cost. For example, the cost to hire an act for a private event in Scotland will differ considerably from a ticketed event in London.

However, as an approximate guide, it’s possible to clarify here that the majority of acts that make it through to the live finals of Britain’s Got Talent tend to have fee expectations starting in the region of £2,000 per performance. The most successful acts from the show can command fees much higher than this for both private and corporate bookings. Listed below are some of this year’s acts that are potentially available to book. For a more accurate indication of booking fees you can contact one of our entertainment agents using our online form.

Threebee Available to Book

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

Dance troupe Threebee are now considering offers for live events across the UK and beyond following their exit from Britain’s Got Talent at the semi-final stage. The troupe gave an impressive performance with a routine mixing Bollywood style dancing with modern music and choreography.

However, the judges were full of praise for Threebee with Piers Morgan lauding their performance as “absolutely brilliant” and Amanda Holden praising their “energetic, colourful, fabulous start to the show”.
