Question

My birthday is coming up and I want to hire a DJ and wanted to know how much is it usually???

Answer 1

You might pay anywhere between $200 and $500 or more - depending on how experienced your DJ is and how long you want him to play for you. I would caution against hiring someone at the low price point unless you know they are good. The last thing you want is to spend money on a DJ that brings your party down! Asking for and checking references is also recommended.

What exactly are you looking for from a DJ? If you don't need the high power sound system and are just looking for someone who can play dance music, you might be able to get away with your own setup using an iPod with songs you can pre-select before the party. It would take more work from you on the front end, but it could save some bucks and you would ensure that the songs played are the ones you really want to dance to.
