Surprise entrance
Agree a discreet waiting point, one trusted contact and the exact cue before guests become aware.
Parties and celebrations
Dhol for birthdays, anniversaries and private celebrations.
Choose a surprise entrance or selected performance point that suits the room, guests and wider event plan.
Private occasions
Create a dhol moment guests will remember
It might introduce a guest of honour, reveal a surprise, mark an anniversary or become a selected live set within a family party.
The most effective option depends on where guests are positioned, what happens immediately beforehand and how the live performance returns to the DJ, speeches or meal service.
Milestone welcome
Accompany the birthday guest, couple or family member along a suitable route.
Short performance set
Select a point when there is enough room for guests to watch, join or dance safely.
Venue fit
Plan with the venue in mind
House performances may require consideration for neighbours, access and available room. Outdoor plans depend on weather, permission and a safe surface. Private venues may limit sound, loading or where performers can wait.
Send the date, postcode, occasion, approximate time, player number, surprise requirements and preferred format.
Celebration questions
What to tell us about your celebration
Can the dhol players perform at a house?
A house setting can be considered after access, space, neighbours and the intended performance area have been discussed.
Can the performance be kept as a surprise?
Yes, where there is a suitable waiting point and one named contact can manage the cue discreetly.
Can the players perform outdoors?
This depends on permission, weather, safe access and a suitable surface. Include the outdoor plan in your enquiry.
Can a short set be coordinated with our DJ?
Yes. Share the music and running order so the handover can be arranged.
