Michael Zimmermann at the DJ booth, DJ for Düsseldorf

DJ Düsseldorf · Rhine Bank and Lower Rhine

From the Altstadt to Kaiserswerth and out to the Lower Rhine: music for your party.

Whether Pempelfort, Oberkassel or the Medienhafen, Neuss or Ratingen: I am Michael Zimmermann, and I put together the music that suits your guests. In this city, what plays on a given evening often depends on who is sitting at the table, which is why we talk things through beforehand, by phone or video call, about the guests and the schedule.

Occasions

What is on in Düsseldorf?

Three pages for three kinds of party: open the card that fits your date in Düsseldorf or on the Lower Rhine.

Wedding

DJ Wedding Düsseldorf

An orangery on the Rhine bank, a banquet hall in the museum quarter or a house with a garden: the music carries your day from the drinks reception to the last song.

Company party

DJ Corporate Event Düsseldorf

Summer party after the trade fair, year-end celebration in the Medienhafen or an anniversary in a concert hall: the music holds the evening together.

Birthday

DJ Birthday Düsseldorf

From a milestone birthday in an Altstadt brewery pub to a garden party in Oberkassel: the music follows you and your guests.

Around Düsseldorf

State capital on the Rhine, a city of fashion and trade fairs.

Düsseldorf is the state capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, has around 619,000 inhabitants and is divided into ten city districts. The Königsallee with its luxury brands, the Gehry buildings in the Medienhafen and an Altstadt with more than 300 pubs and restaurants packed into a small area shape its character.

Whether you celebrate in the Altstadt, on the Rhine bank or in a suburb like Kaiserswerth makes no difference to my planning. I am also behind the decks for you in Neuss, Ratingen, Meerbusch and Hilden.

About me

At the decks for every occasion.

My journey began in 1998 behind the mixing desk of a nightclub. There I realised that music only works when it suits the people in the room. Over more than 1450 events this has become a craft, including over 650 weddings as well as company parties and birthdays of every size.

If you would like to read up beforehand, you will find 60 reviews on Google with an average of 5.0 stars. When planning, I first ask two questions: who is coming, and how should the evening feel?

As a lecturer at DJ Allianz e.V., I pass on my knowledge of transitions and of reading a dance floor in workshops. In a city where fashion, media and trade fair people celebrate alongside Altstadt regulars, this helps me every day.

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 choose a DJ in Düsseldorf?

You get music, equipment and, if you like, announcements from one person, whether you celebrate in Flingern, Oberkassel or the Medienhafen. You decide how the evening is structured, and I put it into practice live.

Which places on the Lower Rhine do I play in?

In all of Düsseldorf's city districts as well as in Neuss, Ratingen, Meerbusch, Hilden, Langenfeld and Mettmann. Tell me where your party is taking place and we will sort out the rest in a conversation.

When does it make sense to send an enquiry?

As soon as you have a date, because popular Saturdays and the weeks around trade fairs are booked up quickly. Within 24 hours I will let you know whether your day is free.

We are a mix of regulars from the Altstadt and people who have moved here: what music suits that?

I start with songs that almost everyone knows and let the mood decide where it goes. You enter your requests and no-gos beforehand, and I mix the transitions myself.

What happens if a piece of equipment fails in the middle of the evening?

My kit includes a second setup with a spare laptop, so the music keeps playing even if something fails, whether in a hall on the Rhine or in a garden marquee.

How do I get a quote?

Send the form or give me a call. I will get back to you within 24 hours, we will talk about the party in a no-obligation video call, and afterwards you will receive a personal offer.

Is your date already set?

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

DJ+ – live musicians on my mix.

If a DJ set is not enough for you, I bring in musicians from my network. They play live over my mix and adapt to the schedule, whether you celebrate on the Rhine bank or in a hall in the harbour. We decide together which line-up suits your evening.
