Parties and events

Events John is hired to DJ

Looking to hire a DJ in Melbourne for something other than a wedding? These are the nights John plays most.

Milestone celebrations

Big birthdays and anniversaries where the toasts are short, the names are right and the dance floor fills straight after.

Staff and end of year parties

Thank-yous and awards handled on the mic, then a set that gets the whole team up. More on corporate events.

Launches and activations

Live DJ sets and crowd hosting that keep a brand's space busy, as John has done for Kia at the Australian Open and the NBL.

Not dry hire

A DJ who runs the night

This isn't speaker hire with a laptop. You get a working DJ and master of ceremonies who plans the night with you and takes care of it on the day.

  • Running sheet built with you

    Every moment mapped: who speaks when, what plays under it and what happens if things run late.

  • Names checked

    Every speaker, award winner and family member, pronounced right before they hit the mic.

  • Music locked in

    Your must-plays, your do-not-plays and the songs for each big moment, confirmed ahead of time.

  • Venue and suppliers looped in

    John talks to your venue, planner and AV team so the timings line up for everyone.

  • Set up and sound checked early

    Gear tested and running well before your first guest arrives.
