Michael Zimmermann at the DJ booth, DJ for Leverkusen

DJ Leverkusen · City on the Rhine, Wupper and Dhünn

From Wiesdorf to Opladen: music for parties in the city between the Rhine and the Bergisches Land.

A city that grew together in 1930 from Wiesdorf, Schlebusch, Steinbüchel and Rheindorf and gained Opladen in 1975 does not have one sound that everyone shares. I am Michael Zimmermann, and I build the evening from whatever comes together at your party: football friends, groups of colleagues, family from the Bergisches Land. How that works, we discuss before it gets serious.

Who celebrates here in Leverkusen?

Every occasion has its own page. Pick the one that fits your date in Leverkusen or the surrounding area.

Wedding

DJ Wedding Leverkusen

A rococo palace in the park, a villa on the Dhünn or a hall at the Forum: the music follows your day from the reception to the last dance.

DJ Corporate Event Leverkusen

Summer party, year-end celebration or anniversary between the stadium, the Forum and the conference venue: the music brings departments and sites together.

From the harbour in Hitdorf to the park by the motorway bridge: the music suits your guests and your own taste.

Around Leverkusen

Chemical hub, football city, city on the river.

Leverkusen has just over 168,000 inhabitants and three city districts, and lies on the Rhine where the Wupper flows into it; the Dhünn runs through the east. The stadium in Küppersteg, the rococo Schloss Morsbroich with its museum in Alkenrath and the Neuland-Park, which opened in 2005 as a state garden show, shape the picture. The new housing district on the former railway grounds in Opladen is part of it too.

Whether you celebrate in Wiesdorf, Schlebusch or Hitdorf makes no difference to me. I also play in Cologne, Monheim am Rhein, Langenfeld and Leichlingen as well as in the towns of the Bergisches Land.

About me

One booth, many kinds of party.

I learned the craft in a nightclub, at a dance floor that judges more honestly than any request list. Today I have over 1,450 events behind me, more than 650 of them weddings, plus company evenings and birthdays from living room to ballroom.

You can read up on what to expect in 60 Google reviews averaging 5.0 stars. Before I say yes, I want to know who is coming and what may be played.

At the DJ Allianz e.V. I give workshops on transitions and on reading the dance floor. In a city where matchday friends, plant colleagues and relatives from the Bergisches Land celebrate side by side, that skill is often in demand.

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 we get when we book you for a party in Leverkusen?

Music, sound system, lighting and announcements, as far as you want them, all from one source. The schedule of the evening is up to you, the execution is on me.

Which places around Leverkusen can we book you for?

For Cologne, Monheim am Rhein, Langenfeld, Leichlingen, Burscheid and the towns of the Bergisches Land. Just tell me the venue.

How early should we get in touch?

As soon as the date is set, because popular Saturdays go first. I answer your inquiry within 24 hours.

Football fans will be celebrating next to people who have no interest in the stadium: can that work together?

Yes. I start with tracks everyone can get into and then open up the evening step by step. Singing together works with hits from several decades, without anyone being left out.

How reliable is the equipment if something fails midway?

A second setup including a backup laptop is always ready. If one part fails, the music keeps playing without an audible break.

How does the first contact work?

You fill in the form or call me. You get an answer within 24 hours, then comes a non-binding video call, and only after that the quote.

Is your date already set?

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

DJ+ – Live music on top of my mix.

If a DJ set is not enough for you, I bring along musicians from my network. They perform between two tracks and then step back again, whether you celebrate in a park, a hall or on a terrace. We decide together who joins.
