"You have no idea the impact you've made. Thank you so much for your support and being there for us. It was brilliant to work with you guys too and I can only tell you amazing things from the feedback we have had. It was everything we wanted it to be from the outset.  You did us and the MND community proud and it kickstarted the evening perfectly. Thank you to you and your team once again for making it so seamless and such a special night to remember. We will be in touch for future events.

KELLY ANN BOWEN - ORGANISER - FOOTBALL AGAINST MND

"Wow.....what can we say??!! Batala were the absolute highlight. Our event had people ranging from 8years old to 80 all of them were 'samba'ing' away in their own unique way. We worked closely with them in the build up and the band worked seamlessly to put on an incredible show. Nothing was off the table, their flexibility, ideas and showcase was something to behold and certainly something Craig and I will remember for years to come. The pitch walk music through a tunnel of Batala musicians made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, and even though it was a charity match it got the blood pumping, the energy high and set the tone for an amazing event.

I honestly cannot recommend Batala enough. They will be 1st on our list for any future events, and that's a fact!!!"

MATT - FOUNDER - MONKEY FEST

Thanks so much to the band and especially to you for organising. It went really well and created such a great atmosphere in the arena. Thanks again for your flexibility and being adaptable on-site! It can be difficult organising big events remotely, so you helped make that easier for me, especially going down to do your own site visit. We’ll definitely book you again for future events!

"I wanted to extend a HUGE thank you to you and the team. From the moment we connected it has been a pleasure to work with Batala. The preparation work you did was reassuring. The high energy performance of the band  was captivating and brought tremendous energy to the streets. Feedback on socials are incredible, so much love for the band. What stuck me was the sheer enthusiasm on the band members. You could tell they loved what they do. Can’t wait to work with you again"

KATRINA HOUGHTON - ORGANISER - LIGHT UP LEIGH PARADE

""If Moet did awards ceremonies! What an experience. Thanks you to Batala Manchester for wowing the crowd in the opening of the ceremony! When you're dancing to the beat of your own drum you create your own rhythm. From the mouths of our guests - THIS is how you open an awards"

SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER - WIGAN BUSINESS AWARDS

"We were in serious need of some new music at our event. Everyone in our crew and our community were beyond blown away by Batala Manchester's dynamic drumming and larger than life sound. They are a friendly, professional and enthusiastic bunch who went the extra mile to fit right in with our event. We certainly look forward to having them back next year."

HEATHER SKOWOOD - CREATIVE DIRECTOR - WEST POINT LANTERN PARADE

"We loved having the Batala drummers at Rochdale Business Awards. Having had a four year hiatus you definitely made sure our event came back with a bang! The LED drums looked so spectacular outdoors as you welcomed people arriving and our guests couldn’t stop telling us how great you all were. Fabulous – thank you."
