How much does a DJ for hire in the UK cost?

You should budget between £150 and £500 to hire a DJ in the UK for an event, depending on the service provider you choose on Poptop. The average cost is £300, and all you have to do is to fill out the Poptop form with your party details. Once this is done, you'll get an instant quote and can book straight away. Take into account that the length of the performance directly impacts the overall cost of the service. The service fee includes the use of all sound equipment, setup, and a soundcheck. The time of year and travel expenditures are all likely to influence the cost of hiring a DJ in the United Kingdom.

Who provides the sound equipment?

The DJ for hire will deliver the sound equipment and will also be in charge of putting it up before the event begins. So, there is no need to be concerned about providing the right equipment. DJ turntables, mixers, controllers, and speakers are some of the equipment that the vendor will provide. Before the event, the DJ will ask you about your favourite music genres, and they will take requests during the event. Just relax and enjoy your party to the full.

Is it a DJ who makes a set list for the event?

Yes, a setlist is provided by the DJ. However, the DJ for hire will ask you about your favourite music genres prior to the event. Also, rest assured that the DJ will take requests throughout the event. You and your guests will enjoy a lively and energetic show and you will go straight to the dance floor. The DJ offers multi-genre music for every kind of guest you have, so there's something for everyone to enjoy.

How much space do I need to set up DJ equipment?

The performance space required is 3 x 2 metres. A 240v plug socket is also required. Hire a fantastic DJ from Poptop to set up a superb music system and light display for your next special event. You and your friends may celebrate in style by dancing all night long to your favourite hits. Set options for your event include 1 x 3-hour set, 1 x 4-hour set, and up to 1 x 8-hour set.

Neil was great. He handled the Covid madness really well (and also the heater we paid to hire which was broken!) We were so busy and rushed that I barely spoke to him at all, and thankfully he was just excellent and used his initiative and experience to make sure the set up and music was great. Would recommend for any occasion.

The best DJ ever! Elizmi was just perfect. She was the DJ at our wedding and what an amazing night it was. She played banger after banger, read the room so well and everyone commented on how good she was. She was on time, set up without us even knowing and the whole thing was just seamless. Thank you so much for making our day so special and being such a wonderful evening DJ 🤍

We booked Ashley to play at our office summer ball. In the run up to the event, he was quick to respond to any queries we had and called to discuss the playlist and final details over the phone. On the night, he arrived early to set up in advance and played a brilliant set, including taking requests on the night. Thanks Ashley!

DJ ing was good. Friendly to all our guests and played all the songs requested. Didn't expect the karaoke bit at the beginning. If I'd known I'd have said no as just not my thing. However there acrobatics at the end had everyone amazed. They definitely have a great sense of humour if you want a bit of an act as well as DJ.

Archie and Aya were amazing - really made the party (my husband's 40th). They brought the Ibiza party vibe and had the whole party dancing for hours. 100% recommend and we'll have them back again soon!
