Common Questions for Hiring a Bartender

How much does it cost to hire a bartender in Los Angeles?

A bartender’s rate can range from $30 to $60 per hour. To factor in the cost of a bartender for a private party, you’ll need to consider the following:

• The party’s geographical location
• The date of the event
• The bartender’s special skills and training
• The number of people at the party
• The bartender booking service

Does the cost depend on my party’s location?

Bartenders in different cities can have varying rates, with some earning above or below the national average. For example, bartenders in New York could make about 30% above the national average, while bartenders in Las Vegas and San Francisco may earn about 44% to 48% above the national average, respectively. The cost can also vary depending on the local economy and the strength of the local hospitality staffing service.

Can I book a bartender during the holidays?

Booking a bartender during the holidays is a great idea as they bring the perfect festive atmosphere to your event. However, it may cost a little more as event bartenders usually charge more for events held on or near a holiday due to the increased demand during these times of the year.
