Birthday Party DJ for Milestone 30th, 40th & 50th Nights
DJ Kim is a birthday party DJ for adults who want their 30th, 40th or 50th to feel like a proper club night: warm afro house as guests arrive, driving melodic techno at peak time, every record selected live. She is available for villas, rooftops, yachts, private venues and homes with the right sound system, in London, Dubai, Goa and worldwide.
AT THE DECKSAt the decks, red LED wall behind01 — WHO IT'S FOR
A milestone birthday that feels like a club night
Built for grown-up milestones
This is for 30th, 40th and 50th birthdays where the host and guests already love house and techno, or want a night that feels like their favourite club rather than a function room. Think a villa terrace, a rooftop, a yacht deck or a hired private space.
Who it isn't for
Kids' parties, an 18th run as a disco, karaoke, or a wedding-style set driven by guest requests are better served by a mobile party DJ. DJ Kim plays melodic techno and afro house only, so she is the right booking when that is the sound you want all night.
Read off your floor, not a list
Nothing is pre-planned. After twenty years and 500+ shows across 24 countries, including Ministry of Sound and Egg London, she chooses each record in response to how your guests are moving, so the night builds naturally instead of following a script.
02 — HOW THE NIGHT RUNS
What a birthday party DJ set with DJ Kim looks like
Arrival and sunset: afro house
As guests arrive and drinks go round, the set opens with warm, percussive afro house at a level people can still talk over. It is the part of the night that works on a terrace or yacht deck as the light goes.
Hear the sets →Peak time: melodic techno
After the cake and toasts, the energy lifts into driving melodic techno for the guests who came to dance. Set length and finish time are agreed in advance and shaped around your venue's sound limits, so the peak lands before the curfew.
Private events →What the host provides
The rider: 2 × Pioneer CDJ-3000 and a DJM-A9, two booth monitors and a sound system suited to the space, hired in if the venue has none. For dates outside London, travel and a hotel for DJ Kim and her manager.

| Set length | Longer sets are agreed in advance | Start and finish times, and when speeches or cake happen |
| Venue and sound | Villas, yachts and homes often have limits on volume or curfew | Whether there is a sound system, and any noise or time restrictions |
| Equipment | The set is played on 2 × CDJ-3000 and a DJM-A9 with booth monitors, from USB, no laptop | Whether your venue or a local hire company can supply the rider |
| Travel | Out-of-London dates cover DJ Kim and her manager | Nearest airport and preferred hotel area |

04 — BIRTHDAY QUESTIONS
Booking Questions
ANSWERED PLAINLYHow much does a birthday party DJ cost?
DJ Kim's fees are quoted per booking rather than published. The quote depends on the date, the city, the set length and any travel, plus whether the venue already has the rider equipment. Send those details and you will have an answer within two working days.
Can the set run from arrival to the end of the party?
It depends on the night you have planned. Her club sets usually run 60 to 120 minutes, and extended sets that carry a birthday from arrival through to the finish can be agreed in advance, shaped around your venue's curfew and sound limits.
How far in advance should I book a DJ for a 40th or 50th birthday?
As early as you can once the date and venue are fixed. She takes worldwide bookings and 2026 dates are limited, while 2027 is open, so weekend and festive dates are the first to go. An enquiry costs nothing and gets a reply within two working days.
Can I give the DJ a playlist for my birthday?
Not a track-by-track playlist. DJ Kim selects every record live from melodic techno and afro house, reading your guests as the night goes. Tell her the mood you want and anything to avoid, and she will shape the set around it.
Can DJ Kim play a 40th or 50th at our home?
Yes, if the space suits a club-grade set: room to dance, the rider equipment (2 × CDJ-3000, DJM-A9, booth monitors) and a sound system sized to the room, which can be hired in. Check neighbour and noise limits before you enquire.
