Find a DJ for a bar or club

Thomas & LorenzoFounders of GIGZMAP

In a bar or a club, the DJ brings people in and keeps them there. The right one fits your venue and comes back every week.

Here’s how we’d go about it.

Think residency, not one-off

A DJ who plays the same night every week builds a ritual. Regulars come back for them. Try two or three DJs, then keep the one that works.

The style has to fit the venue

A cocktail bar, a pub and a club don’t expect the same music. Describe your crowd, when people arrive and when the energy should peak.

Be precise about the gear

Decks, mixer, monitors: say exactly what you have, with the models. The DJ knows right away whether they need to bring anything.

Fee and hours, agreed upfront

Flat fee, drinks, a cut of the door: agree before the night, in writing. Rates depend on the city, the hours and how well known the DJ is.

Get them involved

A DJ who shares the night with their community brings people in. Give them a visual to post: it works for both of you.
