Frequently asked questions

How much does a DJ from DJ G Beats cost?

It depends on the type of event, how long it runs and what you need. For a standard 4-hour event, prices typically range from €400 to €600.

Weddings, corporate functions and larger parties can cost more when they need extra lighting, a custom playlist or extended hours. Send your date and venue for an exact quote.

Where in Ireland do you cover?

DJ G Beats is based in Athlone, Westmeath, and covers all of Ireland. Most events are across the Midlands: Westmeath, Roscommon, Offaly, Longford and east Galway.

How long does set-up take?

Usually 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the venue and how much sound and lighting your event needs. Everything is set up and tested before your guests arrive.

It's worth allowing an extra 30 minutes for any adjustments. If you need a custom set-up, mention it when you book so the time can be planned.

Is it worth having a DJ at a wedding?

Yes. A DJ reads the room and changes the music as the night goes, which a playlist can't do. DJ G also makes announcements, takes requests and keeps the dance floor busy from the first dance to the last song.

Sound and lighting are included in DJ packages, so the room looks and sounds right all night.

How many hours should a wedding DJ play?

Usually 4 to 6 hours. That typically covers background music while guests arrive and during the ceremony (30 to 60 minutes, if needed), about an hour for the drinks reception, and 3 to 4 hours for the meal, the first dance and the dance floor.

Every wedding runs differently, so the timeline and playlist are planned with you before the day.
