On average, professional African entertainment costs $400-$1000. The exact price will vary depending on your location, the length of the performance, and the type of performer you hire. For example, a full African show with live musicians and dancers will charge more than a solo performer or duo.
There are all types of African performers you can hire for your special event. Traditional African music is played on a variety of musical instruments, but drum shows are the most popular choice for most African-themed events. For a more lively performance, an African dance troupe would captivate your audience. If you have a larger budget, consider booking a full entertainment company that will incorporate both live music and dance into their performances.
Space requirements will vary depending on the type of performer you hire. Having a lifted stage for your African performance is ideal to make sure all of your guests have a good view of the show. If you’re only booking one or two African drummers, a small dedicated performance space will usually do the trick.
Before hiring your African entertainers, be sure to discuss the venue setup and dimensions with them in advance. Communication is important for managing expectations and the more information you can cover before the event will help ensure everything runs smoothly when the day arrives.
African musicians and dancers often have a variety of setlists and show options to fit any performance length. They can pop into your event for a quick 30-minute performance, do a full-length one-hour stage show, or perform off and on for 2 or more hours. For longer performances, just make sure to schedule adequate breaks for the entertainers.
African entertainment can add culture to all types of events. The upbeat and rhythmic beats are particularly suited for fairs, festivals, and other outdoor events. Depending on your theme, African music can also be great for birthday parties, corporate events, and wedding receptions.
You should also consider African entertainers and dance troupes for educational environments like school assemblies and campus events – especially during Black History Month.
You should book your entertainment as soon as you know the details of your event. Many performers book months in advance, so the earlier you begin your search the more options you’ll have. We recommend booking at least 4-6 months before your event, if possible.
