Venues, DJs and Bands
Over the past 15 years All The Kit has been delighted to work at some superb venues across Wiltshire, Hampshire, Dorset and further afield. Sometimes it's a stunning barn, sometimes it's just a field with fantastic views perfect for festival themed events. We have also worked with some superb bands, DJs and other performers.
We have listed below a selection of venues, DJs and bands in our local area who we have been particularly impressed with, and hope that you might find this useful. We do not receive any form of payment for these to be listed here, and we have only put this together to help our customers. We are not agents so please contact them directly via the links.

The Bandits
We had the pleasure of doing the sound for this excellent band at the Vintage Nostalgia Show. We thought they were superb:
The Bandits are a five-piece rock-n'-roll band who, with their own four-part harmonies and musical (and literal) twists, bring to life vintage classics and retro rarities.
Performing all of the top toe-tapping tunes from the fantastic Fifties, The Bandits guarantee to get you and your guests jumpin' and jivin' all night long! Here is a link to their website
