Wedding
DJ Hochzeit AachenThe ballroom of a spa house, a park hotel or a castle in Laurensberg: The music carries your day from the reception to the last dance.
DJ Aachen · Imperial city in the tri-border region
From the Marktviertel to the Soers: music for celebrations in the city of Charlemagne.
Whether Pontviertel, Frankenberger Viertel or Laurensberg on the outskirts: I am Michael Zimmermann, and I build the music around the people celebrating with you. In Aachen, researchers, students, craftspeople and families who have lived here for generations stand at the same buffet, and how an evening can be shaped from that is something we clarify beforehand without rush.

Around Aachen
Charlemagne's palace, spa town and university city.
The cathedral was Charlemagne's palatine chapel, it has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1978, and kings were crowned here from 936 to 1531. The city has just under 264,000 inhabitants, more than 30 thermal springs and gives Printen their name; the RWTH, founded in 1870, shapes the cityscape with more than 44,000 students. Every year, the CHIO equestrian tournament in the Soers draws many visitors.
Whether your party takes place in a hall in the city center, in Burtscheid or in Laurensberg makes no difference to me. I also play in Würselen, Stolberg, Eschweiler and Herzogenrath.

About me
Behind the decks when the party starts.
I started in a nightclub and learned there to listen to the dance floor instead of to a list. That has grown into over 1450 events, more than 650 of them weddings, plus company evenings and birthdays of every size.
60 Google reviews with 5.0 stars show how that goes down with guests. At the start of every planning, I ask about the people in the room: how many, how old, from which circles.
At the DJ Allianz e.V., I give workshops on transitions and on reading the dance floor. In a city where university, crafts and family businesses come together, that helps me at almost every party.

Services
Everything included.
Sound and lighting for rooms of up to about 150 guests, wireless microphones for speeches and backup equipment come to every party. On request I add uplights, a photo booth, an audio guest book or live music to the DJ set. We discuss the schedule and music calmly beforehand, so that nothing is left open on the day itself.
Frequently asked questions
Questions before booking.
Short answers for everyone celebrating in Aachen and the Städteregion. More can be found on the pages for weddings, company parties and birthdays.
+49 176 700 580 27What do I get when I book you as a DJ in Aachen?
Music, sound system, lighting and announcements from a single source, whether the party takes place in the Frankenberger Viertel, in Brand or in Laurensberg. You decide how the evening is structured, and I carry it out.
Which towns around Aachen do you cover?
In all seven Aachen city districts and in places like Würselen, Stolberg, Eschweiler, Herzogenrath and Roetgen. Just tell me where you are celebrating.
When is the right time to enquire?
As soon as your date is set. Popular Saturdays are booked first, and within 24 hours you will find out whether I am free on that day.
We are celebrating with guests from the university, from craft businesses and from the neighborhood: Does your music suit such a group?
I start with tracks that almost everyone knows and let the evening grow gradually. You enter requests and no-gos beforehand, so that nothing plays on the night that nobody wants to hear.
What happens if a device fails during the party?
A second setup with a spare laptop is always in my luggage, also for parties in Stolberg or Herzogenrath. If a component fails, the music keeps playing anyway.
How do I get a quote?
Send the form or call, no matter where you are celebrating. I get back to you within 24 hours, we talk without obligation in a video call, and afterwards you have your personal quote.
Is your date already set?
Then enquire right away, before another couple or team books the same Saturday.
Listen & Watch
Even more options
DJ+ – live musicians over my mix.
Anyone who wants more than a DJ set brings in musicians from my network. They perform between tracks and fit into the schedule, whether in the hall, in the castle courtyard or in the garden. Which lineup suits your party, we decide together.
01
Reception · Opening dance
DJ + saxophone
A saxophone over calm beats turns the champagne reception into a moment your guests mention later.
02
Entrance · Surprise
DJ + vocals
A voice accompanies the entrance or surprises the birthday guest of honour exactly when nobody expects it.
03
Late evening · Dance floor
DJ + percussion
Percussion drives the evening on once the meal is over and the guests are meant to get moving.
04
Standing reception · Festive dinner
DJ + violin
A violin adds sparkle to a standing reception or dinner, whether in the hall, in the foyer or under the open sky.
