There will be adequate set up time available usually 30 minutes before the start time of the event and 30 minutes after the event to break the set down. The client should indicate what access is available, stairs, lifts, Car parking etc. This is not a cost to the client.

 

The client and the DJ both confirm that there is no third-party interest on the booking and no previous bookings of these dates for this event.

 

Paying a booking fee for your event or function is a 25% non-refundable deposit to secure the booking the 75% remaining balance 1 month before. Any non-payment could allow us to change our work schedule without prior notice.

​

Payments

If you use internet banking, you can make a payment straight into our bank account via BACs. Please ensure you include your surname and the date of your event as a reference and confirm it with us, so we can identify it.

​

Non-payment of any fees owed within 30 days after the date of the event will result in legal action.

​

Cancellations

The DJ will be holding your date exclusively for you and will turn away all other work.  The potential loss of work in the event of a cancellation is real and tangible. Momentum DJs will accept a cancellation from 2 months to 4 weeks prior to the event date as an acceptable notice period. The client will be charged 50% of the agreed booking fee.

 

Cancellations within 4 weeks or less of the event date will be charged 100% of the agreed booking fee.

​

If you do need to cancel, please inform us at the earliest convenience and be aware that all formal cancellation requests must be made by email from the contact email address we have on file for the booking. No telephone cancellations can be accepted.

​

In exceptional circumstances, should the event need to be cancelled for reasons entirely beyond the client’s control, then the booking payment can be transferred to a new date. Momentum DJs will try to fulfil its obligations in the events of unforeseen circumstances by any other means should this be necessary. If it is not possible to do so or an agreement cannot be reached, then the standard cancellation policy will apply.

The Client is also responsible for any damage to The DJ's equipment caused by any person at the event. The client will be charged for the full cost of any repairs required. The client will be advised of any damage as soon as it is caused.

​

Health and Safety

In the event of fire, flooding, public disturbance, terrorist activity or any other threat to the public, the DJ will act responsibly and in good faith but will not be held responsible to evacuate any venue or building where he is present and / or working within, unless the fire regulations for the venue specify otherwise. In this situation this would usually incur a vocal announcement which the DJ would undertake.

​

The Venue

The client will allow suitable time for the installation and dismantling and removal of equipment (minimum of one hour).  The venue and client must also ensure that safe and adequate power is available. The DJ will ensure that any equipment that requires connection to a power source is electrically safe and conforms to the HSE EAW Act 1989, and any amendments thereafter.

  
If you are booking additional entertainment (e.g. singer, comedian, band etc) as well as hiring a DJ, please consider and think about the amount of space available and where the client will put the audio equipment. Speaker location is usually best if it is no greater than 10 meters either side from the position of the presenter. If you require additional entertainment services, we’d be happy to discuss your requirements.

​

The DJ also reserves the right to refuse to continue any event prior to the start should there not be sufficient floor space to allow the audio / lighting equipment to be assembled safely.

​

The DJ reserves the right to substitute alternative entertainment should uncontrollable circumstances dictate the need to do so.

 

The DJ will be responsible for producing certificates of Public Liability Insurance and P.A.T. Testing carried out on our equipment.

 

We will not be responsible for any damage or loss to private or public property caused by invited guests or members of the public.

Refreshments

As the DJ works very unsociable hours, we ask if non-alcoholic drinks could be supplied. Please do not offer alcoholic drinks whilst our staff are on the venue’s premises.

​

All bookings should be taken on the understanding that the venue is in possession of the necessary entertainment & liquor licenses.

​

The DJ is not responsible if the venue is found to be in breach of the terms of their license.
