Well can you believe the holiday season is upon us once again! I'm just going to have a little rant about booking a venue.


Please ensure when you book a venue you get the following information: Can the DJ park (for free) at the venue, and is there easy access to load in?

Is the event on the ground floor and if not is there a lift he can use to take the equipment to the room? What are the start and finish times for the DJ? (not the finish time of the venue) This is very important details that a DJ requires. In the past couple of months I've had issues because these questions were never asked of the venue management. I've had an event booked for 5 hours, when I was told 1 hour before I was due to finish that I had to stop the music.. The end time was the time everybody had to be out of the venue, not the time I stopped the music! I've had another event where not only was there no parking, the load in was treacherous. I managed to do it and had my fingers crossed all night as I had to park my car in a rough spot, but I'd have been well within my rights as per my t's & c's to cancel the event.


Finally, an event where I was told it was on the top floor but I could use the lift. Well upon arrival I was told under no circumstances was I to use the lift as it was for disabled people only.


For a smooth booking, get the information off the venue manager......


Happy Holidays!!
