A teen birthday party in Edmonton, such as a 13th or a sweet 16, needs a DJ who plays what the birthday teen and their friends want, keeps it clean, and keeps the night moving. Plan the music, the activities and the end time, then send us your date, venue and guest count, and you can compare options with prices for DJs who are available that day.
The birthday teen’s playlist
Ask the birthday teen for a list of songs they’d like, and any they don’t. Send it to the DJ early, and ask how they’ll mix it with songs the whole group will know.
Clean music
Teens and some parents will be in the room. Ask for clean versions of songs, and agree how the DJ will handle a request that isn’t clean.
Games and lights
Ask whether the DJ can run a few games or a dance-off between songs, and what lights they bring for the dance floor. If you’d like a moment for the cake or a birthday shout-out, tell them when.
Parents and the end time
Tell the DJ who the adults in charge are, and when parents will arrive for pick-up. Check with the venue what time the music has to stop, and agree an end time with the DJ so the last song comes before pick-up.
Questions to ask before you book
- Have you played teen birthday parties before?
- Do you play clean versions of songs, and how do you handle a request that isn’t clean?
- Can you work from the birthday teen’s playlist?
- Can you run a few games or a dance-off?
- What do you bring for the dance floor: speakers and lights?
- Can you make a birthday announcement for the cake?
- When will you arrive, and how long do you need to set up and pack up?
What changes the price
The price depends on how many hours you book, whether it’s a Saturday or in the holiday season, sound and lighting if the venue has none, and travel outside Edmonton.
How booking works with AGNT
AGNT is a booking company. You send us your date, venue and guest count, and we check which DJs in Edmonton are available that day. We send you options with prices. You pick one, and it’s booked once the deposit is paid. If your first pick isn’t available, we’ll tell you and suggest DJs with a similar style who are.
Some of the Edmonton DJs you can book through AGNT are Chad “The Chef” Cook, NICK DEGREE ° and HA HA. You can see more on DJs for hire in Edmonton.
How we put this together
We wrote this from what parents ask when they book a DJ for a teen birthday: the music, the activities, the lights and the end time. It doesn’t list prices, because they depend on your date, your hours and what you need. You’ll see prices with the options we send.
