FOR HOSPITALITY

Entertainment that belongs in your venue.

A restaurant finding its evening rhythm. A hotel building a weekly programme. A beach club looking for its next resident act.

Viva Music curates music and live entertainment around your venue’s character, your guests and the experience you want to create. From individual bookings to ongoing programming, we bring together creative direction, artist sourcing and practical coordination.

THE APPROACH

Every venue has a character. Its entertainment should express it.

The right artist for a lively brunch may be entirely wrong for an intimate dinner. A sunset session needs a different pace from a late-night lounge.

We start with your space, your audience and how the experience changes through the day and week. Then we shape a programme around those details, with considered choices about artists, formats, timing and budget.

The aim is a venue where the entertainment feels as thoughtfully chosen as the food, design and service.

How we can help

Entertainment strategy & programming

A clear direction for what happens in your venue, when it happens and why it fits. We develop weekly calendars, seasonal programmes and entertainment plans across individual outlets or multiple hotel spaces.

For new openings, established venues and teams ready to rethink their current offer.

Live artists, DJs & residencies

Singers, musicians, bands, DJs and distinctive acts selected for your audience, setting and budget.

We handle sourcing, curated shortlists, availability and fee checks, negotiation and booking coordination. For recurring programmes, we help establish artist rotations and residencies that give guests something familiar to return to, with room for discovery.

Signature experiences & special occasions

A recurring evening can become part of a venue’s identity.

We develop concepts for live music nights, listening sessions, cultural programmes, brunches, festive periods and special events. Each begins with a clear idea and brings together the artists, format and setting to make it work.

Music identity & playlists

The music between performances deserves the same attention.

We define a musical direction for your venue and curate playlists around different spaces, service periods and energy levels, with guidance for your team and a plan for regular refreshes.

Programme coordination & review

An ongoing programme needs attention beyond the first booking.

Depending on the agreed scope, we support scheduling, artist communication, technical requirements and replacement arrangements. We review guest and team feedback with you and refine the programme as the venue’s needs evolve.

Music licensing assistance

Support with reviewing how your venue uses music, identifying licensing questions and coordinating enquiries with the relevant licensing organisations.

This can form part of a wider programming brief or be scoped separately.

OUR CURATION PRINCIPLE

Start with the room. Then choose the act.

We consider how a performance will sit within the whole experience: whether guests can comfortably talk, how the energy changes through service, where an artist fits physically and what the venue team needs to deliver it well.

Those details guide our recommendations, from the first shortlist to the running order.
