About Our Wedding Bands for Hire in Italy
FixTheMusic represents a selected group of wedding bands available for hire across Italy. These bands regularly perform at weddings and private events and are familiar with working at Italian venues and with international couples.
Our wedding bands have performed at a wide range of venues across Italy, including Hilltop Hamlet, Fra Lorenzo Relais, Ca Sagredo Hotel, Villa Antiche Mura, Du Lac et Du Parc, Hotel Monaco and Grand Canal, Borgo Egnazia, Masseria Montalbano, Masseria Potenti, Castello di Vicarello and Palazzo Mannocchi, among others.
Some of our wedding bands have confirmed bookings up to two years in advance, particularly during peak wedding seasons, so availability can be limited at certain times of year.
You can read more in our blog post listing the most popular wedding bands in Italy based on confirmed bookings.
Our bands are available for weddings, corporate events, private parties, charity events and other occasions where live music is required. They perform in a variety of styles, including pop, rock, funk, soul, Motown, blues, acoustic, vintage, rock and roll, R&B, Britpop, electro swing and indie pop.
FixTheMusic also works with a number of acoustic roaming and strolling bands, which are often booked for aperitivo or drinks receptions and suit venues where a flexible live music set-up is preferred.
Italy is home to a large number of professional musicians, singers and DJs, many of whom have trained at recognised music colleges and universities across Europe. Despite this, finding reliable cover bands in Italy that are available for private hire can be challenging. FixTheMusic provides a single platform for viewing band profiles, reading verified reviews and making enquiries directly with musicians.
In addition to British and American pop, rock, soul and funk, many of our Italian wedding bands can also perform Italian songs, ranging from traditional material to Italian pop covers. Couples often choose to include a short section of Italian music alongside standard cover sets.
Live Wedding Band Performances in Italy
All of our Italian bands have promo videos as well as videos of live events so that you can get an exact idea for how they will perform at your wedding.
Our bands work hard to release regular video updates that are uploaded to their profiles.

How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Wedding Band in Italy?
The average cost to hire a wedding band in Italy is around €1,950. This typically applies to a professional pop and rock covers band made up of four or five musicians, performing a mix of classic hits and modern chart music for weddings and private events in Italy.
One of our most popular Italian wedding bands is Trio Toscano, whose average price for weddings and private parties in Italy is €1,771. They are a great example of a high-quality local band offering excellent value for destination weddings.
Larger wedding bands in Italy, such as soul, funk and Motown bands, tend to cost more due to the increased number of musicians and singers involved. These larger line-ups usually range from €4,000 to €6,000, depending on the band, performance length and event requirements.
Several factors can affect the overall cost of hiring a wedding band in Italy. Travel expenses are one of the most important considerations. For example, if a band needs to travel from southern Italy to a wedding venue in the north, the total price may increase significantly.
FixTheMusic also represents a selection of larger Italian wedding bands with full horn sections, often featuring saxophone, trumpet and sometimes trombone. These bands are ideal for couples looking to create a high-impact live music experience, delivering a real wow factor for weddings across Italy.
Destination Weddings in Italy With Local Wedding Bands
Italy is a popular choice for destination weddings and has a well-established live band scene. Across the country, there are many professional local musicians who regularly perform at weddings and private events. FixTheMusic works with a curated selection of local wedding bands in Italy, focusing on experienced performers who are familiar with destination weddings and international clients.
Hiring a local Italian wedding band can simplify planning and logistics, particularly when it comes to travel, set-up and coordination with venues. These bands typically provide music for different parts of the day, including the aperitivo, dinner and evening reception, and are used to performing for a wide range of guest groups.
What are the most popular locations for destination weddings in Italy?
Some of the most popular locations for destination weddings in Italy include Tuscany, Puglia and Rome. These areas offer a wide range of wedding venues and a strong availability of local wedding bands. FixTheMusic represents multiple bands in each of these locations, making it easier to find musicians who are already based near your chosen venue.
Should I hire a wedding planner for a destination wedding in Italy?
Many couples planning a destination wedding in Italy choose to work with a local wedding planner to help manage venues, suppliers and schedules. FixTheMusic regularly works alongside experienced wedding planners across Italy and can offer guidance if you need recommendations or general advice during the planning process.
What is the SIAE tax for hiring a wedding band in Italy?
The SIAE licence is a required fee when hiring a wedding band in Italy to perform cover songs at weddings and private events. The licence ensures that copyright holders are paid for the use of their music. Italian authorities enforce this requirement, and it is the responsibility of the event organiser to obtain the licence. More detailed information is available in our blog post on SIAE.
Do you offer other wedding entertainment in Italy?
Yes, FixTheMusic also offers other wedding entertainment options in Italy alongside local wedding bands. These include acoustic duos, DJs, saxophonists, string quartets and other musicians. We also work with a range of non-music suppliers such as fire dancers, wedding photographers and caricaturists.

Reviews of Our Wedding Bands in Italy
Review of Stardust (professional covers band based near Bari in Puglia) by Raymond Molag
"We booked Stardust for our wedding and man did we make the perfect choice! There were a lot of musicians at the wedding so the band had to be good. I can tell you that not only did Stardust create a perfect atmosphere for the day and for the party, they are also masters of their instruments. So everybody had an amazing time! The singer's voice and range is honestly suited for any style of music, so whatever music you like will sound great when Stardust is playing it. At the end of the night they let a few guests play on their instruments, which they didn't have to do but it was really fun! I've checked the internet for the best wedding bands in Italy and apart from the class and vibe of Stardust they were also a great choice for price/quantity. Not only did they perform at the party, they brought a DJ to fill up the breaks and they even provided music throughout the day for stuff like the ceremony. And last, there is the fact that they were all nice guys, willing to be flexible with last-minute changes and great to hang out with. So if you're looking for an awesome band in Italy, you have to book these guys!"
Review of The Puppets (5-piece pop wedding band with male & female vocals) by Emme Ortiz
"The Puppets were phenomenal!! As a wedding planner bringing clients from the US, it can be a challenge working with local vendors and sometimes we are a little unsure of what the outcome will be but the band was not only incredibly responsive, they showed up on time, with a great attitude and completely knocked it out of the park with their performance!! Even their DJ who managed sound for the ceremony absolutely did a spectacular job and all three cultures that collided (Americans, Columbians and the Danes) were all on the dance floor having an amazing time. I will absolutely encourage any of our future clients or anyone else getting married in Italy to stop searching and just hire the Puppets!"
Review of Trio Toscano (3-piece pop & rock wedding band with male vocals) by Jordan Lazzopina
"Giacomo and the band were absolutely amazing! They played music for us all day and into the night. The set list was perfect and everyone had such an amazing time! We are so happy that we booked Trio Toscano for our wedding. Definitely recommend!! 💕💕"
Review of The Somethings (Tuscany wedding band) by Jodi Dunkley
As one client recently said in a review of FixTheMusic...
"Absolutely outstanding. When you are organizing the biggest day of your life with the added constraints of having a wedding abroad, what you need around you is contacts that are understanding, great at communicating and strive to help you create the most perfect day of your lives. Ed and his team are all of the above and then some. Exceptional communication, even when a small concern popped into my head late at night, my enquiry was dealt with instantly and I was put at ease.
FixTheMusic's website is simple to use and gives you so many options. Such a great experience. Being a covers band fan, I truly wanted a covers band at my recent wedding. Traveling from England to be married in the beautiful Tuscan hills, I initially thought finding a band was going to be difficult, especially with the language barrier. However, with my first google search for a Tuscan band, FixTheMusic popped up.
The website was so easy to use, my partner and myself instantly found bands of our desired area. We could then watch YouTube clips of the artists. This is where we feel in love with The Florentine covers band “The Somethings”. Wow now here is an exceptional band that were rehearsed to perfection and gave us the best show we have ever seen. Fabio, the lead guitarist and spokes person for the band bent head over backwards to provide us with the most perfect day. We asked if the band would mind if they learned a new song, our song to be played as our first dance. They were happy to do this and completely smashed it. What a performance.
Also, we asked if Fabio and his fabulous lead singer Chiara, would do a small acoustic set for our wedding ceremony. Also this was not a problem. Their performance here was so emotional that there was not a dry eye. They created the most intense magical moments for that will live with us and our guests for the rest of our lives. We can not thank them enough and we fully recommend them over and over as the best covers band we have ever seen.
So all in all from Ed, his team and The Somethings, we had the most exceptional service ever and made our wedding planning journey a dream. Thank you to each and every one of you. Jodi & Dee xx"
Review of The Florence Jazz Band (4-piece jazz & swing band with female vocals) by Jessica Hay
"The Florence Jazz Band were absolutely amazing, they were so lovely to work with and were fantastic on the day. The guests were blown away by them and gave an amazing vibe to the day and we could not have asked for better. I would highly recommend them to any future couple and I very much hope to work with them again in the future!"
Review of The Sonics (pop covers wedding band based in Rome) by Yunus Sevimli
"The Sonics rocked! They took care of the music for the whole wedding, including live performances during the welcome party, during the ceremony and during the party, as well as DJ late into the night. They put up with all our requests and also agreed to have us jam with them on the stage. The Sonics has an extensive playlist of songs from different genres that they allowed us to pick from. They have high energy, look cool and sound even better. We had a great time ourselves and also heard many compliments from our guests about how good the music was. Big thanks to Oniq and the whole team for being accommodating and awesome overall."
Review of Cosmic (wedding & party band based in Rome) by Lorraine Meehan
"THE best band I have ever seen with the most amazing, fabulous musicians! From the 1st song till the last, we were dancing. AMAZING!!!"
Review of The Prodigal Duo (professional pop covers duo based in Tuscany, Italy) by Fernanda Cavalcante
"This band is amazing. They play and sing really well. They played all the songs we chose and more! We couldn’t have hoped for a more wonderful experience for our big day. They exceeded our expectations. They know what they are doing. We hired 3 hours of live music and 2 hours of DJ. We only selected songs for the live show and let them choose the songs for the DJ part and they did not disappoint us. They are also super friendly and charismatic, which made our party even better. We really recommend them."
