Here is the problem with most event entertainment: the band plays their set, the DJ plays their playlist, and half your guests check out before dessert. uRequest Live flips that completely.

Your Guests Pick the Playlist. Your Band Plays It Live.

Real-time song requests, from their phone or the kiosk.

  1. Scan

    Guests scan a QR code on their phone or walk up to one of our touchscreen kiosks at the front of the stage, like a modern jukebox. No app download, no sign-up.

  2. Pick and vote

    They browse a catalog of 300+ songs spanning every genre and decade, pick what they want to hear, and vote on other requests. Try it: the queue on the phone is live.

  3. Hear it live

    Our musicians perform the winning song live on stage within minutes. Nobody sits down. Nobody leaves early. Your event becomes the one people talk about at the next one.

Why Event Planners Choose uRequest Live

You've booked entertainment before. You've crossed your fingers and hoped the band reads the room. You've watched half your guests leave the dance floor because the DJ played three EDM tracks in a row at a corporate gala. We built uRequest Live because we were tired of seeing that happen, and so were the planners who kept calling us back.

  • Predictable Outcomes, Not Crossed Fingers

    Traditional entertainment is a gamble. You hire a band, hope they match the energy, and find out on the night. With uRequest Live, your guests tell us exactly what they want, in real time. The crowd curates the setlist through their phones, so the music always matches the room. No more post-event feedback about the band "not reading the crowd." The crowd is the playlist.

  • 95% of Your Guests on the Dance Floor

    That's not a marketing number. It's what happens when people feel ownership over the music. When your CEO's pick gets played by a full live band, they're not sitting at the table. When the intern's guilty pleasure gets voted to the top, the whole room erupts. The difference is visible within the first 20 minutes.

  • A Real Band. Not a Gimmick

    This is a full professional live band: drums, bass, guitars, keys, horns, and vocals. Musicians who have toured nationally and performed at events from 50-person dinners to 5,000-person galas. The technology is what makes us different, but the musicianship is what makes the night unforgettable. Every song is performed live, arranged on the fly, no backing tracks.

  • Zero Logistical Headaches

    We handle everything: sound, lighting cues, stage plot, the request platform, and the QR code displays. You get one point of contact, one invoice, and a team that shows up early, sets up quietly, and runs the entire production so you can focus on your guests. We've done this at hundreds of events. The logistics are our problem, not yours.

  • Data You Can Actually Show Your Stakeholders

    After your event, we provide a full engagement report: total song requests, vote counts, peak engagement times, most requested genres, and audience participation rates. If you need to justify your entertainment budget to leadership or prove ROI on an employee appreciation event, we give you real numbers.

  • 300+ Songs. Every Genre. Every Generation.

    Your event has baby boomers, millennials, and Gen Z in the same room. A traditional band picks one vibe and sticks with it. Our catalog spans Motown to modern pop, classic rock to Latin, country to hip-hop, and the audience decides the mix. Everyone gets to hear something they love, performed live.

Frequently Asked Questions

uRequest Live is a 10-piece professional live band where your event guests choose the songs in real-time from their phones. Attendees scan a QR code — no app download needed — browse a catalog of 300+ songs across every genre and era, submit their picks, and vote on what gets played next. Our musicians then perform each winning request live on stage. Think of it as the energy of a packed concert combined with the personalization of a private playlist, except everything is performed by real musicians, not a speaker system.

Guests scan a QR code displayed at your event to access the request platform on their phone — no app, no download, no account creation. From there they browse or search our catalog, pick the songs they want to hear, and cast votes on other requests. The most popular picks rise to the top and our band performs them live within minutes. Event organizers can also set preferences, pin must-play songs, or block specific tracks. The whole system runs through a browser and works on any phone.

We perform at corporate events, galas, conferences, holiday parties, weddings, product launches, fundraisers, and team-building events. Basically any gathering where you want guests engaged instead of checking their phones under the table. We regularly perform for groups ranging from 50 to 5,000+ people, and we scale our production to match your venue — whether that is a boardroom reception or a convention center main stage.

For peak season events between September and December, we recommend booking 3 to 6 months ahead — those dates fill fast, especially for corporate holiday parties and galas. For off-peak dates, 4 to 8 weeks is usually enough lead time. The sooner you lock in your date, the more flexibility we have with production planning. Reach out anytime and we will confirm availability within 24 hours.

Yes. uRequest Live is based in Toronto but we perform across Canada and the United States. We have done shows in Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary, New York, Las Vegas, Chicago, and dozens of other cities. All travel logistics, equipment, and production are handled by our team as part of the planning process — you don't need to coordinate anything beyond your venue.

Pricing depends on your event date, duration, location, and production requirements. We offer packages for different event sizes and budgets, and every quote is custom. There is no obligation and no awkward sales pitch — contact us with your event details and you will hear back from a real person within 24 hours with a clear, itemized quote.
