DJs and Musicians in Gisborne

Gisborne is the most isolated city in the country by road, and that shows up in every quote: the specialist may be coming over the hill from Napier or the Bay of Plenty. Say what you need and NovaPay asks the businesses that are actually here first.

COMMON QUESTIONS
What if nobody in Gisborne does this?
Then the honest answer is that it comes from out of the region, and the quote should say so with the travel in it. NovaPay asks locally first and widens rather than pretending the choice is bigger than it is.
How is it priced?
Usually a rate for a set number of hours, plus travel and sometimes gear hire. Ask what happens if the night runs long, since overtime is charged and is easier to agree beforehand.
Can I choose the music?
Most will take a must-play and a do-not-play list and read the room in between, which is the part you are paying for. A DJ who will only play your list is not really being used.
Do they bring the sound system?
Usually, though some venues have their own and some have sound limits or curfews. Say the venue in your request, because it changes what is needed and what is allowed.
How far ahead should I book?
For a wedding or anything in December, months. Weekend dates go first, so give the date early and you will have more to choose from.
