Started in 1968, the company was initially known as Band Booking Centre. The name became a misnomer as the range of entertainment extended beyond bands to include street theatre, comedians, floorshows, mcs and speakers and eastern state performers. Thus becoming BBC Entertainment.

Today's managing director, Ms Beth Ormsby began her career at BBC Entertainment in 1976 as a Junior. With a passion for the business and event perfection, she was soon promoted to the position of Manager in 1980. By 1986 she was Junior Director. Three years later - she bought the company. What Beth doesn't know about the entertainment business, isn't worth knowing! Beth ensures that all her team share this knowledge and have a passion for the business of entertainment.
