Troubadours in Gothenburg

Singalongs in Gothenburg: finding the right troubadour

From a crayfish party on the deck to a pub in Haga - here's what you need to know when you book a troubadour in Gothenburg.

Occasions where a troubadour fits in Gothenburg

Gothenburgers book a troubadour when there's singing, toasting and laughing to be done. Typical occasions:

Crayfish parties in August - drinking songs, Swedish classics and singalongs late into the evening.
50th parties where the whole party sings the birthday person's favourite songs.
After-work drinks in the city centre and on Lindholmen. See after-work drinks with a troubadour.
Weddings on the west coast - acoustic during dinner and singalongs once the speeches are over. Read wedding music.
Pubs in Haga, Linné and Majorna that want live music at weekends.

Troubadour prices in Gothenburg

Expect SEK 6,000–15,000 for a night with an experienced troubadour in Gothenburg, and from about SEK 4,000 with someone newer. August, when the crayfish parties come thick and fast, and December are peak season. More figures in the guide how much a troubadour costs.

Out on the islands

A troubadour travels light. A guitar, a microphone and a small speaker easily come along on the boat from Saltholmen, which makes a troubadour a good choice for parties in the car-free southern archipelago. Say which island it is, when the boats run and whether there's power.

Troubadour, DJ or both?

If you want singalongs over dinner and dancing afterwards, you can combine with a DJ in Gothenburg. Is the party further south along the coast? Also check troubadours in Varberg.

How much does it cost to book a troubadour in Gothenburg?

A night with a troubadour in Gothenburg generally costs SEK 6,000–15,000, and newer troubadours often start at around SEK 4,000. Crayfish season in August and December are the most expensive and get booked first. You see the price in the troubadour's reply and pay nothing extra to Jocky.

Can the troubadour play drinking songs at the crayfish party?

Many troubadours have snaps drinking songs and Swedish singalong classics in their repertoire. Say in your request that it's a crayfish party and include your favourite songs, so you know before you book.

Can a troubadour play out in the Gothenburg archipelago?

Yes. The equipment is small and travels easily on the passenger ferry. Give the island, the boat times and whether there's power, and the troubadour will include the journey in their price.

Does it cost anything to send a booking request?

No. Searching, listening and sending requests is completely free, with no obligation. You only pay once you've chosen an artist and confirmed the booking.

How quickly will I get a reply?

Most artists reply within a few hours and almost all within 24 hours. If you send your request to several at once, you see all the replies in one place and can compare price, availability and format straight away.

What kinds of artists can I book?

As well as DJs, you can book live bands, troubadours, saxophonists, quiz hosts and stand-up comedians. They're all booked the same way – search, send a request, compare and choose.

What does 'verified artist' mean?

It means we've checked their identity and contact details and that the artist can invoice – through their own company or through Jocky. Verified artists have also accepted our terms on cancellations and delivery, so you know where you stand before you book.

I can't find the artist I'm looking for – can you help?

Yes. We book far more artists than the ones shown on the site. Tell us who or what kind of artist you're after, and we'll tap into our network and get back to you with suggestions – usually the same day. Contact us and we'll sort it out.

What happens if the artist falls ill?

If the artist falls ill or can't make it, we'll help you find a replacement at short notice – often the same day. You never pay for a gig that doesn't happen.

Can I book troubadours in Gothenburg and the surrounding area?

Yes. The list above shows verified troubadours sorted by distance from Gothenburg, closest first. Many are happy to travel – just say where the event is and the artist will include any travel in their reply.
