Premium Singing Telegrams in Dundee
A live, personalised surprise arranged for Dundee's regenerated waterfront, its university halls and the towns of Tayside around it.
Singergram in Dundee
What a surprise looks like here.
Dundee's waterfront has changed considerably in recent years, and the area around the V&A now offers a genuinely striking backdrop for anniversary and proposal bookings. Away from the river, the city's tight-knit residential streets in places like Broughty Ferry and the West End suit the more intimate family celebration.
The city's university population adds a lively, informal element to the calendar, with graduation-week and student birthday bookings needing a performance pitched to hold a young and easily distracted audience without losing its warmth. Dundee's compact size means most venues are within easy reach of one another.
No performer is based in Dundee itself, and each one travels for the booking, subject to availability, usually from further south. The city is well served by rail, so this generally causes no difficulty, though a little extra notice for an evening booking is always appreciated.
Where it happens
Rooms across Dundee
Waterfront restaurants and hotels
The regenerated area around the V&A and the Tay waterfront makes for a striking setting for anniversary and proposal bookings, and we liaise with the venue beforehand to time the arrival precisely.
University and student occasions
Graduation weeks and student birthdays bring a lively, informal audience around the university campus, and the performance is adapted to suit a younger crowd while keeping the same care in personalisation.

Not someone turning up, singing once, and leaving.

- 02A personalised message written from what you tell us
- 03Songs chosen for the person, not pulled from a fixed list
- 04Real interaction with the recipient, not a recital at them
- 05Surprise logistics coordinated with you, and with the venue
- 06The performance shaped around the occasion and the room

In their words
Genuine reviews from Singergram clients
Reviews from across the UK, reproduced as written.
I organised everything from Romania as a surprise for my husband in London, and the entire experience was seamless. Simon was our singer, and he was absolutely fantastic. My husband's reaction was priceless.
We had the most fantastic performance from Simon for my mum's 60th birthday on Friday. He remembered all of our names, the jokes and anecdotes about her. Not only was Simon professional, he was funny, witty, charming — and with a great voice to boot!
Amazing set from George yesterday. Booked at short notice, the communication was spot on. He arrived on time, and really made my daughter's 21st birthday one to remember.
Questions
Singing telegrams in Dundee
How much does a singing telegram in Dundee cost?
+
It depends on the length of the performance, the venue and how much personalisation is involved, so rather than quote a fixed figure, tell us about the occasion first. You will then be given a single clear price agreed before booking.
Do performers travel from outside Dundee for a booking?
+
Yes. There is no local branch, so every performer travels to Dundee for the occasion, subject to availability, usually from further south. Good rail links mean this rarely affects timing, though a little extra notice is always useful.
Can you perform at a waterfront restaurant near the V&A?
+
Yes. If the surprise is planned for a waterfront restaurant, we contact the venue in advance to agree timing and where the performer should wait, so the surprise arrives exactly as planned.
Can you arrange a surprise for a student birthday or graduation?
+
Yes. The performance is pitched to suit a livelier, younger audience during graduation week or a student birthday, while keeping the same personal touch.
Do you cover towns around Dundee such as Broughty Ferry?
+
Yes. Coverage extends to Broughty Ferry, Monifieth, Carnoustie and Arbroath, alongside the city centre.
