Book or hire a troubadour in Helsingborg

A troubadour usually costs SEK 6,000–15,000 per night, depending on set length, date and travel. Newer troubadours often charge from SEK 4,000, and a duo or full band costs more. Read more in the guide how much a troubadour costs. You always get a firm price from the artist before you decide, with no booking fee from Jocky.

Expect three to four hours, usually in two or three sets with breaks in between. For after-work drinks one or two sets is often enough. Put your times in the request and you'll get a price for exactly that set length.

It varies between troubadours. Pubs and restaurants often have a microphone and speakers to plug into, but for a private party the troubadour usually needs to bring their own. Say in your request whether there's sound at the venue, so the artist brings the right equipment.

Yes, singalongs and song requests are what troubadours do best. Add a few songs your guests love to the message when you send your request. If a song needs to be learnt specially, it may cost a little extra.

A troubadour suits when guests want to sing along and feel close to the music, for example during dinner, at after-work drinks or a birthday. If there'll be dancing for hours, a DJ is often the better choice. Many combine the two: a troubadour during dinner and a DJ when the dance floor opens.

Fridays, Saturdays, December and the summer wedding weekends get booked up first, so once your date is set it pays to send your request straight away. Short notice often works too, since you can send the same request to several troubadours at once.
