Why book a brass band?
The baraat is the groom's grand arrival, and a brass band sets its pace. A good band keeps everyone dancing, even when the procession runs long.
Brass bands with lights and matching uniforms also look great in photos and videos of the baraat.
Share your city, the route length, timing and the style you want, and we'll send bands with videos and prices.

Hiring baraat bands: your questions
How long does a baraat band usually play?
Most quotes cover the procession plus some waiting time. If your baraat often runs late, ask for the overtime rate in the quote.
Do brass bands provide lights?
Some include lights, others charge extra. The quote we send says what's included.
Can I add dhol players or a DJ on a cart?
Yes, many families combine a brass band with dhol or a mobile DJ. Tell us what you have in mind.
Do we need permission for a baraat on the road?
That depends on your city and route, and is usually handled by the family or venue. Check locally well in advance.
What happens if the baraat runs late?
Most quotes include some waiting time and state an overtime rate. Ask for it if your baraat often runs late.
Can the band play our family's favourite song?
Usually yes. Share it in your enquiry so the band can prepare.
