Over the course of the years, the Third Floor Network has produced hundreds of live events across the globe. We have booked DJs, artists and hosts for every type of occasion ranging from music festivals, concerts, corporate events, artist tours to weddings, high school reunions and elementary school dances. We’ve also hired DJs for birthday or family house parties and in some cases even made playlists for long road trips or backyard boogies for our clients. We’ve worked with the best in the business when it comes to moving a crowd from DJ Jazzy Jeff, DJ Vice, Questlove, Z-Trip, Chromeo, etc. but understand not everyone has the budget that a music festival, nightclub or corporation may have to hire these trusted professionals for their event, so with a little help of a few of our favorite DJ friends we’ve created the tips below alongside a network of DJs to help you find a perfect man or woman to get the job done no matter your budget.
