5 Best DJs in Los Angeles (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Vespera Quill, Expert in Local Experiences and Cultural Analysis · ✓ Data verified August 2026 · 8 min read

A bad DJ can flatline an otherwise perfect wedding reception, and a great one becomes the thing guests talk about years later, which is exactly why finding the right DJs in Los Angeles matters. Second Song has logged over 700 reviews at a perfect 5.0, and every DJ company on this page sits at 4.8 or higher, so the real question is which team's roster and add-ons (lighting, photo booth, live music) actually match your event.

Short answer: Second Song leads with a perfect 5.0 across 712 reviews, matched closely by VOX DJs (4.9, 732 reviews) which also bundles lighting and photo booth services. Art of the Party DJs and All The Above Events both hold perfect 5.0 ratings as well, though with smaller review bases. Full-service DJ and MC packages for a wedding in LA typically run in the low thousands, though exact pricing depends on hours and add-ons.

Multiple named DJs (Kahai, Azure, Cale, Suki Rae, Daniel Cabral) praised individually for reading the room

4.8154 Google reviews

Rent For Event LA is a Los Angeles audiovisual equipment rental company supplying DJ equipment, sound systems, lighting and LED walls for corporate and live events. Unlike the other names on this list, it is primarily an equipment supplier rather than a DJ-and-MC service, and it also handles staging and production for larger activations.

What people praise

Wide range of AV and lighting equipment beyond just DJ gear
Delivery and setup described as smooth and on schedule for time-sensitive events
Useful for events that need a rented sound or LED system rather than a full DJ package

Worth knowing

Public reviews include a payment dispute with a third-party equipment vendor, worth asking about directly if it concerns you
This is an equipment rental company first, not a dedicated wedding DJ service

Our take: Worth knowing about primarily for AV and equipment rental rather than a booked DJ and MC. If you specifically need a live DJ for your wedding, the other names on this list are a closer match.

How we score

Every number on this page is computed from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the DJ company’s live Google star average. Review volume measures how many customers have rated them, ranked against other LA DJ companies. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from over 700 reviews carries more weight than a 5.0 from a dozen. Recency reflects how recently people are still reviewing. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does a DJ cost in Los Angeles? (2026)

DJ pricing in LA depends heavily on hours booked, add-ons like lighting or a photo booth, and whether you need full MC services for a wedding versus a shorter private party.

What to ask before you hire a DJ

Which specific DJ from the roster is assigned to my date?
Do you handle MC duties, including announcements and timeline cues, or just the music?
Is lighting or a photo booth included, or is that a separate add-on?
Can I submit a must-play and do-not-play list ahead of the event?
What is your backup plan if equipment fails during the event?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these DJs?

We started from every DJ company in Los Angeles with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Do any of these companies also provide lighting and photo booths?

VOX DJs and Art of the Party DJs both offer lighting and photo booth add-ons alongside DJ services. Second Song and All The Above Events focus primarily on DJ and MC work.

How far in advance should I book a wedding DJ in LA?

Popular DJs and companies book up months ahead for wedding season, so it is worth reaching out as soon as you have a venue and date confirmed.

The bottom line

Second Song is the safe default given its review volume and perfect rating, while VOX DJs is the stronger pick if you want lighting and photo booth bundled in with the DJ booking. Whoever you choose, confirm which specific DJ is assigned to your date before signing anything.
