Book this act
Warner Leisure Hotels
Simon has built up somewhat of a name for himself at Warners and there was quite a bit of excitement from Leisure members when they found out that Simon was performing. He did a great job and worked the crowd really well, giving a solid performance as always. He also used the band for his songs, which was a refreshing change from ‘click tracks’, and it would be nice to see him back in the near future.

We booked Simon Sands to entertain members after our Club Championship Dinner and Presentation. He was enjoyed by all and once again proved to be a very professional and entertaining comic. We would recommend Simon and would definitely hire him again in the future.
East Brighton Masonic Centre
Simon performed as an after-dinner cabaret for our Burns Nite Celebration. The age range of our group was from 20 to 80 and Simon’s choice of material, and the way in which he presented his act, was enjoyed by everyone. On a personal level, I found him very pleasant, professional and a joy to do business with. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him for future events or to recommend him.
Friends of Bridgwater & Albion
We would like to say a big ‘thank you’ for your recent performance at the above club for our Sponsorship Lunch prior to the league match. As you know, we had a sell-out and when we booked you, the choice could not have been better. Your performance was first class – even with a problem with our mic, but your handling of the fault was excellent and surely the sign of a true professional. In conclusion, the feedback we have had has been excellent and has maintained our high standards of entertainment. We wish you well for the future and certainly would have no hesitation in recommending you.
Chobham Golf Club
Simon was such a great success at our previous Seniors’ Dinner that we had no hesitation in booking him again. On both occasions he pitched his act perfectly for the mixed audience of 60 and 70-year-olds and we hope to welcome him back again soon.
Grand Burstin Hotel, Folkestone
Just saw you and had to let you know I think you’re amazing!
