Enquire Now
I really want to have a great party with everyone on the dance floor – are you the right for that?

Absolutely! The New Classics regularly work at clubs, high end bars and premium private events in the UK / Europe and are experts in building an atmosphere and packing a dance floor.

Do you take requests on the night?

Of course! Our DJs have access to a wide range of music, so there can be something for everyone.

How long do you take to set-up?

90 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, the sound engineer will often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around.

Will you play our first dance?

Yes, as long as we have three weeks’ notice of the song, The New Classics will make sure they have the track for you.

How much space do you require?

How much power do you require?

2 x 13-amp sockets are fine for our system.
