Schlosshotel Neustrelitz

Party DJ Neustrelitz · Since 2004
Neustrelitz is my home, and your birthday here should sound just right.
I'm Michael Zimmermann, party DJ, and I play live for your birthday in Neustrelitz instead of running a ready-made playlist. I've been behind the decks for more than 25 years, I've been doing private parties since 2004, and over 1450 events are under my belt so far. Whether you celebrate at home, in a restaurant by the lake or in a hall, I tailor the evening to you and your guests.
“We couldn't have wished for a better DJ.”
– Ben Kampen · Google reviewThe locations. The moments. My music.

You get exactly one shot. I had 1,450 to practise.
Kept the dance floor going until the very end - a great evening.

Parties around Neustrelitz
Here I name venues in Neustrelitz and the Lakeland where private parties are held. Which one suits you, we'll work out in conversation, and I align the booth and speakers to your room.
Whether it's a lake-view side room, an inn on the Haussee or a forest hotel with a garden: I tune the equipment and sound to your room. I like to use a terrace by the water for the reception.
Wherever you celebrate, I coordinate with the venue myself beforehand. If you wish, my LED uplights change color over the course of the party.
The Hotel am Schlossgarten itself advertises birthdays and galas. For the large hall as well as for smaller salons, I set up the equipment to suit the group.
Private parties are possible in the Orangerie in the Schlossgarten; how you book them, you clarify directly with the venue. I then coordinate with the venue.
Restaurant and guesthouse on the Zierker See, with side rooms with lake views for private parties and a lakeside terrace. In a small group, the music starts quietly and picks up tempo later.
The Biedermeier house from 1820 has a garden terrace and is suitable for family celebrations in a small circle. I'll coordinate the music with you.
Vaulted restaurant in a house from 1705 near the castle, with a second dining room and a lakeside terrace. In the vaulted room, I set up the system so that people can keep talking comfortably under the vaults.
The family-run traditional inn on the Haussee has a lakeside terrace. For a party at the inn with a terrace by the water, I bring the battery-powered setup if needed.
The forest hotel with its Johannesruh forest restaurant has a garden with a pond and advertises family and company celebrations. For a party in the garden, the music runs without an outlet via my battery-powered setup.
The wellness hotel on the Tollensesee is an address for larger parties. For large groups, I plan the equipment and lighting with the venue.
The selection is not a reference list. Please have the venue confirm spaces and dates before booking.

Who I am
Neustrelitz is my home: from 1998 to 2001 the Gummibärchen disco was my regular club there, and from then on I moved on to the parties I still play today. Since 2004, over 1450 bookings have added up, from an 18th birthday in the garden to a celebration with three generations under one roof.
At your party I stay in the background and let the music do the talking. I gladly take your requests, and my own edits blend today's charts and classics from the past so that the dance floor stays full, whether in Neustrelitz, on the Müritz or elsewhere in the Lakeland. Write me the date and guest count, and we'll sort out the rest directly.
For that I build my own edits that connect songs which otherwise never come together, and I also pass this knowledge on in workshops for the DJ Allianz e.V. Which songs you love and which are off-limits, we'll settle beforehand in a conversation, so that in the evening all you have to do is celebrate.
How it works
I reply to your message within a day. We then go over the music and schedule on a video call, comfortably from home. On the day of the party I set up on site and do the sound check, and I'm happy to answer questions in between at short notice. Read the whole process →
Request a dateBy sending your enquiry, the first step is done, and you will get a reply within 24 hours at the latest. In a short conversation by video you tell me about your celebration, and then your quote takes shape.
After you say yes to the booking, WhatsApp comes into play, because then you get my private mobile number. When the date is about seven days away, we go through the schedule, no-gos and requested songs together.
The soundcheck is long done by the time the first guests arrive: I set up one to two hours beforehand and settle the last details with you or the venue team. That way the equipment stays invisible.
The first guests arrive, and a relaxed lounge selection plays in the background, making conversation easier. Whoever is the centre of attention gets the right song at the right moment.
Music frames the meal, and the microphone is ready for speeches and announcements. I provide fitting music for games, surprises and the cutting of the cake, so that every item on the programme has impact.
With the starting signal on the dance floor, it is my turn. I read the crowd, steer the programme live in the right direction and bring all generations together until the very last song.
My services
Whether your party in Neustrelitz turns out calm in a small circle or wild with the whole gang, I build the program for it fresh for you every time.
01
If your birthday is a milestone one, I'm happy to plan something special: the favourite song from your youth, a surprise moment at midnight or an edit just for you. We talk it through beforehand, and I build the evening around what matters to you.

Your service package
As soon as you write to me, I take over all the music for your birthday in Neustrelitz until the last note of the evening. Otis Redding and Dua Lipa belong together for me, because on your dance floor several generations often celebrate together.
While your guests celebrate, I shape the music live around their mood without pushing myself into the foreground, and the microphone stays reserved for speeches and programme items.
Add-on
To match the music, I change the colour of my LED uplights over the course of the evening, entirely in the colour you want for the celebration.

At my photo station your guests help themselves, with a digital gallery and props for spontaneous photos included.

Neustrelitz is my home, and from here I also plan birthdays in Wesenberg, Mirow, Neubrandenburg and the Feldberg Lake District. You'll find the matching venues further down.
This is how I plan with you: I reply to your inquiry within 24 hours, in a video call we clarify location, guest count and music requests, and on the day of the party I set up in good time and do the sound check before your guests arrive.

A whole evening of nothing but Mallorca-style party hits, techno without connection to the crowd, or a rigid request list played top to bottom is not my thing. German-language pop hits, on the other hand, I gladly play if they suit you and your guests. If you're picturing a lively party, talk to me.
My craft is mixing live for guests who want an evening with a feel for the moment: clean transitions, the right track at the right time, instead of just pressing play. That's why I'd rather tell you beforehand what I don't do than have you disappointed on the night.
If that doesn't suit your party, I'm not the right one, and that's fine. If it does, let's talk.
Contact
I am curious how you would like to celebrate, and I put together the music your guests want to dance to with you. Since milestone birthdays are usually planned early, they are often booked six to twelve months ahead, but shorter-notice parties also work with four to eight weeks.
