Use our online music planner to tell us exactly what you want to hear, what genres to stick to, and which songs are must-plays and do-not-plays. You can be as hands-on or hands-off as you like.

Tips for Planning the Perfect 21st
A few things that make all the difference when planning a milestone birthday party.
Think About Your Full Crowd
21sts are unique — you might have your nan on the dance floor next to your uni mates. Brief your DJ on the crowd mix so they can plan a set that keeps both generations happy, transitioning smoothly across the night.
Use the Online Music Planner
Our online music planner is your secret weapon. Map out must-plays, do-not-plays, genre preferences and even the vibe for different parts of the night — arrivals, dinner, dancing, midnight. The more detail, the better the result.
Plan Your Key Moments
Entrance song, speech music, cake moment, first dance on the floor — tell your DJ in advance so every transition is seamless. A great DJ makes these moments feel effortless, but they take planning behind the scenes.
Book Before Your Date Fills Up
Saturday nights book out fast, especially during summer and around school leaving dates. Lock in your DJ as soon as your venue is confirmed — a 3-minute quote is all it takes to secure the date.

Real Reviews from Real Birthday Parties
"I would highly recommend you guys again. The service from Paul Anthony through to our great DJ on the night was fantastic. My twin and I had a great night, and it was partly thanks to the music. Was great, thanks again!"
"Paul was very helpful from the first phone conversation right up to the last song of the night. He was happy to play my favourite songs. It was nice to have someone so interested in customer service and satisfaction."
"I had MobileDJ.com.au at my birthday celebration and absolutely loved it. The DJ arrived on time, had a great selection of music and was happy to take requests. Family and friends were up and dancing all night. Thanks again!"
