DJs For Hire London

Summer is fast approaching - meaning people all over London and the country are getting ready to blow off some post-covid steam. In the upcoming months there are going to be festivals, house parties, boat parties, raves, you name it, it’s happening. So with the demand for parties going through the roof and as things heat up, you can imagine there’s also a rising demand for one other thing too - DJs! 

As the premier electronic music academy in London we have access to thousands of talented DJs available for hire.

It’s one thing to recognise that you need a DJ for your party or function, and another to hire one that’s a good fit. The DJs mixing ability and use of FX might be smooth, but if it’s not the crowd's genre of music or they don’t hear songs they can sing and dance to, the party will fall flat and people might leave earlier than you intended. It can also occur the other way around too. The music at your event might be great, but if it's badly mixed and mistakes are being made by the DJ, your crowd will tend to notice and it will disrupt the rhythm. Especially if your DJ is playing on large speakers like a PA sound system. With these important factors in mind, it can be difficult to narrow down your choice of DJ. Luckily, we can do the heavy lifting for you!

Because we are one of the best DJ schools in London, training up hundreds of students a year, we also have a huge, diverse network of alumni. These alumni have all been students of ours and some have even gone on to become very successful DJs! We uphold a strong curriculum at LSA, so you can ensure that our graduates have been taught with care and precision. There are so plenty of DJs with varying styles and experiences to choose from, and we can narrow your choice down according to your needs. You could hire a multitude of DJs including:

Types Of DJs Available For Hire in London

Many of the DJs in our alumni group are travelling DJs, meaning that they carry all the equipment necessary to put on a good party - including lights! They’ll be well equipped whether your party is a birthday, anniversary or just a good old fashioned raver! Contact us via email with your requirements and we’ll get you a quote. 

Wedding DJs

If you’re looking for a DJ that can elevate an already magical day, we can provide many suitable options. A lot of our DJs specialise in open formatting, meaning they are extremely proficient at playing varying genres of music within a short time period. Don’t worry, they will also take requests!

Corporate DJs 

We can say with confidence that whatever industry or company you work for we’d be able to supply a great DJ for the occasion. Some of our Alumni have played at events for huge corporations in fashion, finance and many more across the world.

Retail DJs

Buzzing retail environments like that of the flagship stores on Oxford Street require a DJ that can really read the room, setting the pace for shoppers and providing that extra experiential element. 

Bar DJs

A DJ in a bar can really lift up the customer experience, and can often draw crowds if they can be noticed by passers by. They can often be as open-format as you like, or they can focus on a couple of specific genres if you’re trying to create a certain vibe in your bar.  

Sporting Event DJs

Sporting events draw huge, passionate and lively crowds. It’s at these events that DJs have the opportunity to play in front of thousands who will be listening while there are breaks in the event. A good sporting event DJ understands the sport and is able to read the crowd and choose a track that could even start a stadium-wide chant!
