The Inflatables SHOWBAND!
About Us

The Inflatables are the East Anglia's premiere wedding and party band, the ultimate in live entertainment! We guarantee a fun filled evening and a full dancefloor! We are not background music! Be prepared to be entertained!

We play a wide range of music to suit all tastes, from the sixties to the present day, every song is carefully chosen for the best impact on a great set of dance tunes.

We make a real effort to ensure that our stage shows engage with our audience. Especially popular are the brightly coloured inflatable instruments that we freely hand out to your partygoers, which always encourage even the most reluctant dancer to get involved.

We are happy to organise as much of your event as you would like us to. With years of experience in the wedding and party business, we know where to put our hands on the people and services that you want.  Do you need a chocolate fountain? Event lighting? Close-up magician? Karaoke hostess? Whatever it may be, please ask and we can probably arrange it.

Only a small event? Don't worry. Whilst we're quite at home playing for a crowd of several thousand, we're also quite happy to play for 30 people. Anywhere there's people wanting to enjoy themselves, we're happy to be there. We can adjust the sound system, and the band set-up, to fit into some pretty tight spots. And don't worry about sound, we know how to handle your venue's restrictions too. If your venue is concerned about whether we are too much for them, we will be happy to chat with them and reassure them.

With a huge number of weddings and other events behind us over a number of years, you can trust your entertainment needs to The Inflatables, and join the huge number of clients, brides, partygoers, and others who were delighted that they chose The Inflatables to be a big part of their special evening.

What We Do

Every Inflatables package can include:

  • The showband performance for a length of time to be mutually agreed; typically this will be one or two sets of live music, totalling from 90 minutes to two and a half hours, depending on your requirements.
  • All recorded music for before the band, between sets, and afterwards, according to your needs. This can be dance music, ambient music, or you can even provide your own to play through our sound system. No need to spend more money booking a DJ or disco!
  • Full state-of-the-art front of house sound system, scaled to an appropriate size for your venue, including radio microphones which may be used for speeches or announcements by prior arrangement.
  • Varied lighting rigs, both for the stage area and for the dancefloor, including room lasers.
  • Our charge for the complete Inflatables package is based upon variables such as size of venue, number of guests, event times, and travelling distances. Please contact us for a firm quotation. 

The small print

We have very few terms and conditions, and none that will cause you any problem. When quoting for your event we will have assumed the following:
1. When accepting your booking we ask for a non-returnable deposit. The balance is payable either by cheque no later than 2 weeks prior to your date, or in cash on our arrival at the venue on the day.
2. We will arrive at the venue about 2 hours prior to the band playing. We will then require complete access to the stage area. If this does not meet your requirements, or you need us to set up earlier in the day please make us aware of this as soon as possible, and we can price accordingly. We will need 1 hour after finishing playing to pack away.
3. We need an area of minimum 5m wide by 3m deep for the band, more if possible. A stage is preferable but not essential. We need adequate power supply, as a minimum this should be 4 x 13 amp plug sockets (ie not a 4 way splitter fed from a single 13 amp plug).
4. We do not require a dressing room or any particular hospitality, however if there is a room we can use for getting changed in, it is appreciated. We do not require a bar tab or any particular food, however an invitation to the buffet table is always appreciated.
5. We will play up to 11:30pm, and can play recorded music for another 30 minutes after that to take us to midnight. Our quotation will not cover playing any later than that unless specified.
