Here you can read reviews and tes­ti­mo­ni­als to find the right DJ for your wed­ding recep­tion or other event. Once you have found a DJ who matches your expec­ta­ti­ons, cont­act them in good time to cla­rify avai­la­bi­lity, prices and other important details. Arrange a face-to-face mee­ting or a video call to dis­cuss details such as music requests, pro­gramme and equip­ment as well as addi­tio­nal ser­vices.

The cost of a party and wed­ding DJ in Heidelberg can vary depen­ding on various fac­tors such as the DJ’s expe­ri­ence, the length of the per­for­mance, the size of the party and the spe­ci­fic requi­re­ments. In gene­ral, prices for a party DJ for a cele­bra­tion in Heidelberg can range from €300 to €2000 or more depen­ding on these fac­tors.

Per­for­mance: DJs per­form in front of an audi­ence and play their music live. They are often respon­si­ble for the enter­tain­ment and crea­ting a cer­tain atmosphere.

Ope­ra­ting equip­ment: DJs ope­rate their equip­ment, which typi­cally includes turn­ta­bles, CD play­ers, mixing con­so­les, con­trol­lers and spea­k­ers. They must ensure that the equip­ment is working pro­perly and is set up correctly.
