New acts added each week

Pete McGregor Entertainment (PME) is owned and operated by Pete McGregor, a well known Auckland jazz and rock 'n roll bassist Pete originally started this web site in 1998 to promote his own bands and those in which he worked as a sideman. However he started to get inquiries for other types of bands and entertainers, so he added these to the site as well. This grew and grew and still grows with more acts being added each month. Not just bands, but also tribute shows, comedians, and public speakers. All acts added to the site are either known to Pete and/or his experienced staff, or undergo a audition process and evaluation by PME staff before they are added to listings. This assure quality.

Currently PME have hundreds of acts listed on this site plus hundreds more available.
Even if you cannot find your favourite band on the site, chances are PME can get them for you with their extensive industry contacts.
PME include acts right throughout New Zealand

PME offer clients:
Professional prompt service
PME is run by entertainers so we know what can be done and what cannot be done. We know what band will not suit a certain style of event. We know the stage size required etc. A lot of small details like these are missed by other entertainment agents who largely leave the booking arrangements to young office girls with no entertainment experience. (apologies to all office girls- Sorry girls!)
All acts offered through PME have been vetted by the PME listing process as to suitability. We choose which acts we add to our listings. Not all applicants are accepted - your guarantee of quality.
Full discussion with client as to suitability of act(s) for your event
All bookings secured by written contracts for both Client and Act
Clear contractual arrangements regarding meals, refreshments, dress codes, set up times, stage size, etc (no surprises - better than dealing with an act direct!)
Only top quality, reliable acts provided
All Taxation issues handled by PME
Client and act contacted in week preceding event to ensure everything is as arranged.
Fees held effectively in trust for payment to act. Payouts are made to the act 5 working days after event, so there is time for client to query payment if there are any issues with performances.
Follow up after event to check on client satisfaction
Where applicable client feedback (good and bad added to act sites)
