DJ Paderborn · City of springs and the Pader
From the Pader springs to Schloß Neuhaus: music for celebrations in East Westphalia.
Whether city centre, Elsen or Schloß Neuhaus on the outskirts: my name is Michael Zimmermann, and I tune the music to the people sitting at your table. In Paderborn, students, IT specialists, families with long local roots and guests from all over the Paderborn region celebrate together, and how we turn that into a well-rounded evening, we discuss calmly beforehand.

Around Paderborn
Springs, cathedral and computer city.
Around 200 springs feed the Pader, which is only 4 kilometres long and flows into the Lippe at Schloß Neuhaus. Charlemagne stayed here in 776, the cathedral was begun in 1009, and with almost 156,000 inhabitants Paderborn is the district town in the Detmold administrative region. The Heinz Nixdorf MuseumsForum, the world's largest computer museum, shows its collection across roughly 6,000 square metres, the university has over 16,000 students, and the Libori-Fest is celebrated for nine days.
Whether your celebration is in the city centre, in Elsen or in Schloß Neuhaus makes no difference to me. I play just as readily in Bad Lippspringe, Salzkotten, Delbrück and Borchen.

About me
Behind the booth when the party is on.
I started out in a nightclub and learned there that the dance floor tells you more than any list. By now it is over 1,450 events, including more than 650 weddings, plus company evenings and birthdays of every size.
60 Google reviews with 5.0 stars show how guests respond. Before I plan, I want to know who is celebrating: how many guests, which age groups, which occasions.
At the DJ Allianz e.V. I run workshops on transitions and on how to read a dance floor. In a city where university, technology and mid-sized businesses meet, that helps me almost every time.

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.
Frequently asked questions
Questions before booking.
Short answers for everyone celebrating in Paderborn and the Paderborn region. More can be found on the pages for weddings, company parties and birthdays.
+49 176 700 580 27What does your offer include if I book you as a DJ in Paderborn?
Music, sound system, lighting and announcements all come from me, whether the celebration takes place in the city centre, in Elsen or in Schloß Neuhaus. You decide how the evening is structured, and I make it happen.
In which places around Paderborn do you play?
In all districts of Paderborn and in places such as Bad Lippspringe, Salzkotten, Delbrück and Borchen. Just tell me where you are celebrating.
When is it worth making an enquiry?
As soon as your date is fixed. Popular Saturdays go first, and within 24 hours you will know whether I am free that day.
Our guests include university friends, colleagues from the tech industry and relatives: does your music work for a group like that?
I start with tracks that almost everyone knows and let the evening build slowly. You enter requests and no-gos beforehand, so that nothing plays that nobody wants to hear.
What happens if a piece of equipment fails in the middle of the party?
A second setup including a spare laptop is always in my luggage, also for celebrations in Delbrück or Salzkotten. If one component fails, the music keeps going.
How do I get my quote?
Fill in the form or call, wherever you are celebrating. Within 24 hours I get back to you, we talk without obligation in a video call, and afterwards you receive your personal quote.
Is your date already set?
Then enquire right away, before another couple or team books the same Saturday.
Listen & Watch
Even more options
DJ+ – live musicians over my mix.
Anyone who wants more than a DJ set brings in musicians from my network. They perform between tracks and fit into the schedule, whether in the hall, the foyer or the garden. We decide together which line-up suits your celebration.
01
Reception · Opening dance
DJ + saxophone
A saxophone over mellow beats turns the drinks reception into a moment the guests will mention later.
02
Entrance · Surprise
DJ + vocals
A voice accompanies the entrance or surprises the birthday guest of honour exactly when nobody expects it.
03
Late evening · Dance floor
DJ + percussion
Percussion drives the evening on once the meal is over and the guests are meant to get moving.
04
Standing reception · Festive dinner
DJ + violin
A violin adds sparkle to a standing reception or a dinner, whether in the hall, the foyer or under the open sky.
