Michael Zimmermann at the DJ decks – music for celebrations at Bodensee

DJ Bodensee · Obersee to Untersee

Music for celebrations on every shore of the lake, from Friedrichshafen to Radolfzell.

I am Michael Zimmermann, a DJ with a passion for it since 1998. Whether on the Obersee near Langenargen, in Meersburg or on the Untersee near Radolfzell: I pick the music that suits your group. From that I build an evening piece by piece.

What do you need music for?

Behind the three cards are pages with questions, answers and places for each occasion by the lake. Tap the one that fits your celebration.

Wedding

Wedding DJ Bodensee

From the sparkling wine reception on the lake terrace to dancing late into the night: music, hosting and equipment for your day between Überlingen, Konstanz and Bregenz.

Company party

Corporate event DJ Bodensee

Staff party in Friedrichshafen, summer party on the shore or Christmas party in the hall: the music adapts to the team and the venue.

Birthday

Birthday DJ Bodensee

Whether in Immenstaad, in Meersburg or at a country inn: music for the birthday guest of honour and all the guests.

The lake sections

Four areas, one lake.

If you plan from the water, you think in sections: the Obersee with Friedrichshafen and Langenargen, the Überlinger See with Überlingen on the north-western shore, the Untersee with Radolfzell. In the south-east there is also the Rhine valley, where the Alpine Rhine flows in, and each of these corners has its own character.

Celebrations take place by the water, in the hall of a town like Konstanz, on a terrace or in a garden. I tailor the music to the room and the time of day.

About me

One set of decks, many shores.

I first played in 1998, and over the years that has grown into more than 1,450 celebrations, over 650 of them weddings. The records are files now, but what has stayed is the feel for when a room is ready for the next song.

At a celebration by the lake the generations mix: someone sitting on the terrace in the afternoon often wants different music in the evening from friends from their student days. Self-made edits bring the two together without it sounding like a ready-made kit. The 60 reviews on Google average 5.0 stars.

I also pass on what I know: I run workshops for the DJ Allianz e.V. So if you book me for a celebration between Überlingen and Konstanz, you get a DJ who also teaches his craft to others.

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.

What does the DJ take care of at a celebration by the lake?

I take care of the music for the whole evening, from the reception on the lake terrace to the last song, and the announcements too if you wish. The necessary equipment is of course included.

Which places at Bodensee are possible?

From Friedrichshafen, Konstanz, Überlingen and Meersburg via Immenstaad, Langenargen and Radolfzell to Kreuzlingen, Romanshorn, Rorschach and Bregenz. Tell me where you are celebrating and we will go through the details.

When should I get in touch?

Popular weekends are often booked early, so it pays to enquire in good time. Get in touch sooner rather than later, and I will tell you within 24 hours whether your date is still free.

And what if the guests have very different tastes in music?

Whether it is a family gathering on the Obersee or a company team in Friedrichshafen: I span the range from classics through chart hits to house, and I see on the dance floor what works. We settle your wish list and any no-go songs beforehand in a conversation.

What if the equipment fails?

A second sound system, a second laptop and a backup controller are always with me at celebrations from Überlingen to Bregenz, so the music keeps playing without interruption.

How does the enquiry work?

You use the form or give me a call, I get back to you within 24 hours and we arrange a non-binding video call. After that comes a quote tailored to your evening by the lake.

Is your date already set?

Then enquire right away, before another couple or team books the same Saturday.

DJ+ – live music that flows into my set.

If you are celebrating by the lake, you can add musicians from my network to my set. We discuss the instrument and the moment in the running order in the preliminary talk, and the transition from the decks to live sound stays seamless.

Strings for the sparkling wine reception and during dinner, festive enough for speeches and toasts.
