Hire Dueling Pianos in Chicago, IL & the Surrounding Area
Don’t settle for background music when you can turn the room into a sing-along. A Dueling Pianos International show is a performance like no other that combines expert emceeing, live requests, hilarious bits, and sing-along moments that unite the whole room.
When you’re planning an event and want to skip dead air and awkward transitions, this is the entertainment for you. Our emcees can guide the timeline, cue awards and toasts, and keep the energy buzzing for your guests.
We bring the pianos and sound, tailor the set to your event, and let you actually enjoy the night!
Chicago Entertainment That Gets Everyone Involved

Dynamic, Fun-Forward Entertainment for the Chicago Area
Most events lose energy when music fades into the room. Our format fixes that. Two pianos face the crowd, the players trade songs, take live requests, and lead easy sing-alongs. The result is steady engagement without awkward lulls or volume fights.
Because the audience helps shape the playlist, the show fits many formats and spaces. Galas, school fundraisers, weddings, festivals, park events, and private parties all work. Ballrooms, banquet halls, breweries, tents, gyms, and fairgrounds do too! All ages feel welcome, and any crowd size stays engaged.

Artists With Experience That Shows
Finding talent that can host, play, and read a room is hard. Our musicians do all three. Years of stage experience mean they’ve worked out all the kinks so you get tight timing, quick improv, and confident emceeing. Solos land, harmonies lock, and the room stays with them from the first chorus to the last.
They can keep it clean for family nights or make it a little risqué for late shows in club settings. They invite requests, land the jokes, and keep people smiling for a performance that leaves a lasting impression.
