Your DJ questions, answered

How much does a DJ cost?

DJ prices are $300 to $800 on average for birthday parties, corporate events, bar/bat mitzvahs, and other private parties. Wedding DJ prices are $500 to $4,500. The average cost to hire a DJ depends on the event type and length, your location, the DJ's experience, and the package and add-on services you select. Average DJ prices for various event types are:

How much should you tip a DJ?

The standard tip for a DJ ranges from 15% to 20% of their total fee, depending on the even type, duration, and complexity, and the services provided.

Marsha
Nov 16th 2019: If anyone is looking for a totally professional DJ that goes above and beyond for making your event spectacular, then DJ Matt is for you. He literally saved our wedding event from a last minute catastrophe. His mood lighting was totally unexpected by me but just set the stage for the memorable night that I will never ever forget. He kept the celebration going at all times. This guy knows his stuff about professionalism. I highly, highly recommend him......the best DJ I have ever seen in action. On a scale of 1 to 10 he’s a 100! Rock on Matt.....You’re the best!!!!!!!! Thank you. Marsha. Mother of the Groom
