Whether Bessungen, Arheilgen or Kranichstein, Pfungstadt or Seeheim-Jugenheim: I am Michael Zimmermann, and I mix what suits your guests. I have gathered over 25 years of experience, and what plays on any given night is ultimately decided by the people in front of the booth.

Occasions

What are you celebrating in Darmstadt?

Three pages for three kinds of celebration: pick the card that fits your date in Darmstadt or Southern Hesse.

Wedding

DJ Wedding Darmstadt

From the Art Nouveau house to the castle hall to the garden at the Orangery building: I provide the soundtrack for your day, from the reception to the final song.

Company party

DJ Corporate Event Darmstadt

Summer party, year-end celebration or anniversary: with the right music, the staff celebrates freely, even after a day full of presentations.

Birthday

DJ Birthday Darmstadt

The big round one in the studio, the thirtieth in the villa: the music follows the guests and what the guest of honor likes to hear.

Around Darmstadt

City of science with Art Nouveau.

Darmstadt has carried the title City of Science since 1997, the Technical University has existed since 1877, and the Mathildenhöhe with the artists' colony of 1899 has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2021. To the southeast begins the Vorderer Odenwald, to the south the Bergstrasse.

Your party can take place in a villa in Bessungen, in an old factory hall or in a village on the edge of the Odenwald. Pfungstadt, Weiterstadt, Griesheim and Seeheim-Jugenheim are also part of my service area.

About me

More than one genre.

Anyone who starts out in a nightclub learns early that no plan replaces a room full of people who want to dance. This led to over 1450 events, including more than 650 weddings, plus company evenings and birthdays from living rooms to large halls.

You can read how people experience me on Google: 60 reviews, an average of 5.0 stars. The music I choose depends on the age of the guests, their number and the occasion you are celebrating.

In workshops of the DJ Allianz e.V., I pass on how transitions succeed and how to read the mood in the room. This knowledge helps you when grandparents, college friends and colleagues are all supposed to share the dance floor.

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 do I get when I book a DJ for Darmstadt?

Music, sound system and, if you wish, the announcements all come from one source, whether the party is in Bessungen, in Kranichstein or in the city center. You decide how the evening is structured, and I make it happen.

Which places around Darmstadt do I travel to?

To all districts of Darmstadt and to places such as Pfungstadt, Weiterstadt, Griesheim, Dieburg, Seeheim-Jugenheim and Bensheim. Just tell me where you are celebrating.

When should I get in touch?

Best as soon as the date is set, because popular Saturdays go quickly. Within 24 hours I will tell you whether the day is still free.

How do I find music that everyone likes?

With mixed groups, I alternate between classics, current charts and house and watch what the dance floor accepts. We clarify requests and no-gos beforehand.

What happens if the equipment fails?

A second set with a backup laptop is always in the car, whether in Eberstadt or in Ober-Ramstadt. If something fails, the music keeps playing anyway.

How do I get a quote?

Write to me via the form or call, whether you are celebrating in Arheilgen or in Roßdorf. I get back to you within 24 hours, we arrange a non-binding video call, and afterwards you receive a personal quote.

Is your date already set?

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

DJ+: live musicians in the set.

Anyone who wants more than a DJ set can bring in live musicians from my network. They play between the songs and adapt to the schedule, whether the party is in the city or on a farm along the Bergstrasse. We decide together which lineup suits you.
