Different ways to experience PianoFactor live
Pop-Up Piano Bar
The Pop-Up Piano Bar is the closest thing to a live piano bar at your event. One piano entertainer performs live piano & vocals with integrated rhythm and bass — compact, self-contained, and perfect for up-close singalongs and requests.
One Piano Show
The One Piano Show brings bigger punch: live piano & vocals with live drums, plus optional saxophone or guitar. It’s ideal when you want the feel of a piano singer performance, but with extra drive and scale for a fuller party atmosphere.
Duelling Pianos
Duelling Pianos is full-scale interactive entertainment: two piano entertainers with live drums and optional saxophone or guitar. Fast-paced, high-energy, and built for bigger crowds where you want maximum impact and room-wide singalongs.

Piano Singer Hire Cambridge
Local events, local venues, zero hassle
Cambridge is one of the best places in the UK for live piano entertainment — from formal dinners and corporate events to high-energy wedding receptions. We perform regularly in and around the city, and we’re used to Cambridge realities: tight access, limited parking, historic buildings, and venues with strict sound expectations.
Our setup is fully self-contained and designed to be practical: we arrive early, set up cleanly, keep cabling tidy, and run the performance professionally. The goal is simple — you get a great atmosphere with minimal friction on the day.
Common Cambridge areas we cover include the city centre, Trumpington, Cherry Hinton, Newnham, Chesterton, and surrounding villages and towns such as Grantchester, Girton, Histon, St Ives, Ely, Newmarket, Royston and St Neots.
If you already have a venue in mind, the fastest next step is to use the quote tool — it will price accurately based on location and logistics.
