How much does it cost to hire Event DJs in California?

$Low price
from$100USD
$$Average price
from$420USD
$$$High price
from$1,350USD

Most DJs quote per event rather than per hour, with evening bookings in California running from about $100 to $1,350+ and typical spends around $420. Hourly figures usually only appear for short add-on slots or extra time at the end of the night. When comparing quotes, check what is included: sound equipment, lighting, setup time and travel are normally built in, while uplighting, an extended set or a separate system for a second room adds to the fee. December dates and peak-season weekends are the first to go, so confirm your date as soon as the venue is settled. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Photo of Regency Talent Regency Talent "Amazing!!!! Carlos was very responsive to any questions we had. The band was beyond what we expected. They were all so talented and super flexible. We’ve had issues with sound system before (this was a fundraising gala for a school district and we had an auctioneer) and Carlos made sure we had what we needed and took extra time with sound check just to make sure everything was perfect. The band played a dinner set and a 2 hour set. No breaks!! We are so grateful for Top Secret for having our event something special! We wil definitely hire them again and highly recommend them. Thank you, Top Secret" Based in Livermore, California Ava Laurora - Top Secret Band Performance -Gala Photo of sloKaraoke sloKaraoke "Julie & John provide a great karaoke show for a great value!
