5/5 from 816 reviews
Photo of Gradalicious Gradalicious "Very good, our guests are happy with the music and the performance. The atmosphere was very fantastic!" Based in Bussum, North Holland (38 miles from Arnhem) Yuting Cheng - KTS International Exhibition Consulting UG Photo of Vintage Vinyl DJ | Jazz Central Agency Vintage Vinyl DJ | Jazz Central Agency "Kars responded quickly and efficiently. He helped us find the perfect solution. We chose the vinyl DJ who perfectly suited our whisky event. The DJ was always on time and adapted his choice of records to the atmosphere of the event." Based in Amsterdam, North Holland (51 miles from Arnhem) 27th October 2025 Lies Photo of Bijou Trio Bijou Trio "I was searching for a jazz band for a luxury event I planned in Amsterdam and came across Bijou Trio, what an incredible find! Out of all the entertainment companies I contacted, they were the first to respond (within hours!), and their pricing was by far the most competitive. When the event day came, they exceeded every expectation. Impeccably presented, charming, and professional, these 3 young men brought the atmosphere and true artistry to the event. Their performance was elegant, polished, and musically outstanding. I later found out they are formally trained musicians with a university background in music and it shows. Highly recommended for anyone looking for world-class jazz with genuine soul and sophistication." Based in Amsterdam, North Holland (51 miles from Arnhem) Nadia Duran - Nadia Duran Events - Sydney Australia Photo of Sofia Michelle Sofia Michelle "There hasn’t been a lot of great song options for wedding music. It’s always either lacking or overused. Sofia put together such a great song list for us. We had a video prepared last minute and Sofia chooses the perfect songs to go with it. It was such a beautiful moment for us when they go live. We got so many compliments from guests." Based in Amsterdam, North Holland (51 miles from Arnhem) Andrianna Pan - Wedding Dinner Photo of Jazz Moments Jazz Moments "Jazz Moments set the ideal tone for our reception with their refined and tasteful music. Their ability to play beautifully while remaining in the background made them the perfect choice for our wedding. Truly professional and talented musicians." Translated from Dutch Based in Rotterdam, South Holland (61 miles from Arnhem) Hanna & Wim - Private Wedding Photo of Black Thursdays Trio Black Thursdays Trio "Great performance! What a fantastic trio! And very nice men. Professional and flexible, highly recommended" Based in The Hague, South Holland (69 miles from Arnhem) 20th March 2026 Raymond - Private Event
