Find the best DJ for your event


Finding the right DJ means matching their expertise to your event's unique demands. A professional wedding DJ in San Diego can orchestrate the perfect soundtrack for a ceremony in Balboa Park or a stunning reception overlooking the cliffs in La Jolla. For the corporate world, a DJ can energise a conference in the UTC area, a military ball, or a company holiday party on a yacht in the bay. For private parties - the right DJ will create a personalised soundtrack just for you.

Why hire a professional DJ?


While using a pre-made Spotify playlist or assigning music duties to a family member may seem like cost-effective alternatives, they lack the specialized expertise of a professional DJ. A professional's value lies in their ability to read the audience, curate a dynamic atmosphere, and adapt the music in real-time to keep the dance floor consistently energized.

DJ hire in San Diego FAQs

How much does it cost to hire a DJ?

According to Bark data for the Pacific region, a DJ can cost between $500 and $1,000. As one of California's most desirable destinations, you can expect costs in San Diego to be higher than the average. The price can vary significantly based on several factors:

  • DJ's Experience: A well-known club DJ will command a much higher fee than a talented newcomer.
  • Event Type & Duration: A 5-hour wedding at a Temecula winery, including travel and MC duties, will cost more than a 3-hour birthday party in Chula Vista.
  • Location & Logistics: A location that requires significant travel or a venue with difficult parking and complex load-in rules will likely impact the cost.
  • Equipment Needs: A large beachfront event requiring an extensive sound system and lighting will be priced higher than an indoor event with a built-in sound system..

How do I find a cheap DJ in San Diego?

To find a budget-friendly DJ in San Diego, planning ahead is key. When you post your request, provide as much detail as possible to get accurate quotes. While "cheap" is relative, here are a few tips for getting an affordable DJ:

  • Book on a Friday or Sunday: A Friday event is often more affordable than a prime Saturday in La Jolla or Coronado.
  • Look for rising talent: An up-and-coming DJ can offer great value and a fresh perspective.

  • Hire hyper-local: A DJ based near your event may have lower travel costs and therefore be cheaper to book.

Getting multiple free quotes allows you to compare prices and find the best professional who fits your budget and vision for your San Diego event.

How much do San Diego DJs charge per hour?

A San Diego DJ's hourly rate depends on their experience, the event type, and the day of the week. Most professional DJs have a minimum booking time of 3-4 hours, particularly for popular Saturday dates. For an accurate price for your specific needs, it's best to request free quotes.

What’s the secret to keeping a party dancing all night long?

Know your audience and play the songs to match! We do several theme events as well as big venues. We have over 90,000 songs to choose from... We will set up a meet and greet to get to know what is expected of us from the first to the last song.

How would you describe your ‘style’?

Our style if very flexible. We come fully prepared with song lists as well as DO NOT PLAY list. Our goal is to keep the guests dancing, the organizer happy and the referrals coming! With so many options including languages we are ready to meet your style!

What do you love most about your job?

What we love most is the people. Seeing them enjoy themselves because we took the time to get to know them as well as come prepared to provide the best service we could. Afterwards, knowing that we made a difference and that it was a positive one is very rewarding.

What inspired you to start your own business?

We have done several events as a contractor for another business and it was not as pleasurable as owning our own. The difference is we will make every effort to provide excellent service as well as listen to our clients. When you are working for someone else they may not have the same passion and it shows.

Why should our clients choose you?

We make them the priority. It is not our event in name but we can make it OUR event by partnering with the clients. It is about team work and how to excel as one without egos. When we do our best it shows on the referrals and that will show on your scorecard based on the reviews.

Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.

Yes we can. We have had to think outside of the box during this last year with quarantining and no public events. We use several apps and programs that allow us to work with Zoom, Teams and other streaming platforms like Facebook, Twitch and Instagram. We have created DropBox files with playlists as well as used SoundCloud and Spotify to provide services to our clients.

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?

We are one of the only or few DJ Sound Systems that come with a full size sneeze guard. We wear our face masks at all times, carry our own sanitizers, gloves and Lysol sprays. We bring our non-contact laser thermometer to take temperature checks, sanitized pens and we come fully insured to protect the venue. As an added feature, we refund all deposits if the event is canceled due to Covid-19 closure, illness or related reason (must be Covid-19 related). We will also reschedule to a future date as long as it is available up to three reschedules in a 12 month period.
