Cost of a party

[ampassasinbirmingham]

also we were looking to book the party around the dj's schedules, but one agency i contacted wouldnt give me the artists diary dates so we could see who was available and when? WTF is that about?

Thats a bit shit, most good agencies will give you a list of when certain dj's are available. Although i doubt you'll get very far with most if you havent already got a definate date booked. Most will have the dj's schedule on their websites as well. What sort of dj's are you after?

Stay Up Forever are a damn good agency, look after all the Liberators, Guy Mcaffer, Rackitt e.t.c

If their up your street, have a look on their website, thier contact details are on there, you'll prob need to speak to Rachel who is spot on.

Havent got the details of any others as i'm in work, but if you need any more help give us a pm will try and get some more for you.

main thing i think is to know your crowd...if you already have at least a 100 following of friends and there friends then look at a headliner round you £500 mark and really push your pr and you should do ok . but if its just a small crew and you want it to grow i surgest you put on smaller partys with just good solid residents that play well and grow your crowd untill you hit that 100 - 150 mark then get headliners round 300 to 500 pound mark and then you could cover things better. trouble is £500 sounds a lot to spend and people think you should be able to book a club filler with that...tbh tho is not the case always... is all about the right pr /word of mouth and following, you could be trowing the £500 away if you dont have all of those.
To be fair tho can get some great djs for around £500 just gotta make sure you back it up with right night.

hope that helps.
