Corporate events

Christmas parties, summer celebrations, awards nights, company milestones. Many of Ireland's biggest companies book Smash Hits year after year — because it works every time.

Private parties

30th, 40th and 50th birthdays, engagement parties, wedding day-two blowouts, christenings and every kind of milestone in between. Big occasions deserve a big show.

Awards nights

Smash Hits have performed at some of Ireland's highest-profile events including the IFTAs and the IMRO Awards. We understand timing, scheduling and how to lift a room after the formalities are done.

Hotel & Festival residencies

Smash Hits have held residencies at some of Ireland's most iconic venues and festivals — including Electric Picnic, The Taste of Dublin, At The Manor, The Burlington Hotel, The Talbot Hotel, Killiney Court Hotel and The Park View Hotel. Every night a sellout. Every crowd a convert.

Since 2010, Smash Hits have been the life and soul of the party all over Ireland. What started as a cult live show quickly became one of the most in-demand corporate and private event bands in the country.

The two-hour live set is built to launch your event properly and keep it surging from the first track to the final chorus. Then the DJ set takes over — keeping the energy high with floor-filling favourites for guests of every age. No lull. No awkward gap. Just a seamless party from start to finish.

The Smash Hits show goes down so well that many clients book year after year for their Christmas party, summer party and major company milestones. When the brief is simple — "make it a night they'll never forget" — we deliver.

"Would highly recommend. I have seen Smash Hits over the years in various venues and they never fail. We booked them recently for our company Christmas Party — very easy process to book. Through the years of organising bands and entertainment they were the nicest people we have dealt with. The dance floor was never empty. We can't wait to book again for our next event!"

"Smash Hits performed at a work event recently and were brilliant. They were very easy to deal with and to organise the night with — total pros. The performance itself was top notch, big energy and they had the dancefloor full for the whole set which, with a work event, is no easy feat! Great feedback from the staff and overall, couldn't have asked for a better night. Can't recommend highly enough."

"Smash Hits have played at our Charity Ball for the last number of years and they are absolutely fantastic! As someone who organises a lot of events, I can say that they are the best there is. Dance floor is packed from the 1st song to the last! And they are a pleasure to work with."

"I recently had the pleasure of booking Smash Hits for a school fundraising event. They were so professional and a pleasure to deal with — and more importantly they filled the dance floor with the best tunes all night long! People didn't want them to stop playing!!"
