    I charge double my normal rates, Not too bothered if I don't get a booking this year either as I would rather spend it with my family for once.

    Like Tony said we have had this subject before and the norm seems to be double bubble for Christmas Eve and Old Years Night. Certainly in the many years I have been doing this that has appeared to be what most artistes expect. Every year there is always some twerp who posts that to charge extra is ripping the client off and he only ever charges normal rate for NYE - well more fool him!

    For once? You're only 20 Steve - how many NYE have you done??!!!

    This subject really depends on who you are charging. I do 2 x bookings for very good clients on NYE and couldn't possibly charge them treble, though normally just under double.
