What does an event DJ provide?

An event DJ plays music through the night, reading the crowd and building the mood from background music during drinks to a full dance floor later on. Most also handle announcements and work with your running order.

DJs can bring their own sound system and lighting or plug into the venue's setup. They pair brilliantly with live acts such as a saxophonist or violinist, and can theme a set to match your night, from 1920s swing to disco and current chart.

Where it works best

Christmas parties
Floor fillers for the biggest night of the year.
DJ with live acts
Sax, violin or percussion over the set.
Launches
A soundtrack built around your brand.
Weddings
From the first dance to the last song.
Themed nights
Sets matched to the era or theme.
Corporate parties
Music pitched to a mixed crowd.

Tips from our team

1
Agree the timings
Set times, announcements and the last song should all be on the running order.
2
Share must-plays and do-not-plays
A short list helps the DJ get it right for your crowd.

Check the venue system
