Holiday parties
A cocktail set while people arrive, a short program with the leadership welcome and awards, then a dance floor that works for a mixed-age crowd. The photo booth earns its keep here.

Corporate event DJ and MC for the Bay Area
Holiday parties, launches, galas and offsites need someone who can run a program on the mic, keep presenters audible and still get a room full of coworkers dancing. We bring the sound, the host and, if you want it, a photo booth with your logo on the strip.
- Quoted per event, one invoice
- Presenter mics and walk-up music
- Photo booth with branded strip
- Certificate of insurance on request
Event types
The events we're asked to run most.
Each one gets a different mix of hosting, music and production. Tell us which it is and we'll quote the right shape.
Launches and activations
Walk-up music for speakers, clean mic handoffs, playback for the sizzle reel, and a DJ who can hold a room at low volume for two hours of demos and mingling.
Galas and award nights
A host who reads names correctly, cues each award with music, keeps the program on the clock and hands off to the auctioneer or keynote without dead air.
Offsites and summer picnics
Daytime sound for a winery lawn, park or campus courtyard, a host for the games and announcements, and a set that keeps energy up without drowning conversation.
What we handle
Sound, hosting and the small things that stall a program.
You get one contact before the event and one crew on the day. Your venue only has to provide power.
Program and presenters
Wireless handheld and lapel mics for speakers, a confidence check with each presenter, walk-up and walk-off music, and playback for video or slides through the PA.
- Run of show built with your planner or EA
- Timing kept to the minute
Music that fits the room
Background sets for networking, a curated program playlist, and a dance set that reads the crowd. Explicit-free on request, and we honor a do-not-play list.
- Brand-appropriate selections
- Volume managed around speeches and dinner
Photo booth with your logo
Unlimited sessions, prints on site, a strip designed with your logo and event name, prop kit and attendant. Great for recruiting events and client nights.
- Digital gallery for the team after
- Fits a foyer or a corner of the ballroom
Lighting and look
Uplighting in your brand colors through the venue, dance floor lighting for the party portion, and a clean DJ booth that photographs well in the recap.
- Matches the brand deck
- No strobes or effects unless asked
Venues
From a SoMa rooftop to a South Bay campus.
Travel is included anywhere in the Bay Area. We load in about two hours before doors and coordinate with the venue's AV and security.
Hotel ballrooms and conference venues
San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose hotel ballrooms, where we either bring the full system or tie into the house PA for a program that spans a general session and a party.
Tech campuses and offices
Peninsula and South Bay headquarters, cafeterias turned into party rooms, and courtyards for summer events. We work around badge access and loading docks.
Rooftops, lofts and warehouses
SoMa, Dogpatch and Jack London Square spaces with great looks and no built-in sound. We size the PA to the room and light it so it photographs well.
Wineries and outdoor sites
Napa, Sonoma and Livermore offsites, Presidio lawns and park picnics. Power runs, weather plans and local music cutoffs are sorted on the planning call.
Need the event on Oahu for a company retreat? We travel; destination dates include one flat travel fee. See the Oahu page for how a destination date works.

Corporate FAQ
Questions from event planners and EAs.
The ones that come up when a company books us. The general questions (holding a date, payments, overtime, insurance) are answered in the homepage FAQ.
Can you work with the venue's in-house AV?
Yes. For hotel programs we can work with the house PA for the general session and bring our own system for the party portion. We coordinate with the venue's AV lead ahead of time.
Do you host, or just play music?
Both. The MC runs the program: welcome, introductions, awards, raffle, toasts and transitions, scripted with you beforehand so names and titles are right.
Can the music be clean?
Yes. Explicit-free sets are standard for corporate dates unless you tell us otherwise, and a do-not-play list is honored.
What paperwork can you provide?
A certificate of insurance for our equipment, a W-9 and any vendor forms your finance team or venue requires. Ask for them with the quote so nothing holds up the booking.
How far ahead should we book?
Holiday parties in December fill first; many companies book them in September or October. Launches and offsites move faster and can usually be arranged within a few weeks, subject to the calendar.
