Select Mobile Disco is Your Perfect Choice for Weddings and Parties Across Cambridge
Looking for a mobile disco you can actually trust with your big day? Select Mobile Disco is Your Perfect Choice if you want a professional, reliable, friendly service that treats your event like it matters, because to us, it does.
We’re based just outside Cambridge and we’ve been DJing for 25 years, running this business for much of that time. That’s a lot of first dances, a lot of packed dancefloors, and a lot of lessons learned about what actually makes an event work.
We’ve built up plenty of very happy repeat customers over the years, and they’ve left us nothing but glowing five-star reviews. Take a moment to read DJ Jules’ full biography for a bit more insight into our years performing at venues right across the UK.
What You Get With Our Complete Mobile Disco Package
Here’s the honest truth: we don’t just turn up with a laptop and a speaker. We offer a complete mobile DJ service and full disco package, built around your event from the first enquiry to the last song.
Every booking includes:
- A stylish DJ booth that looks the part, not an afterthought in the corner
- A fabulous light show designed to fill the room
- Wireless microphones for speeches, toasts and announcements
- A top-notch professional sound system suited to your venue size
- Up-lighting in your chosen colour theme, at no extra charge
We specialise in weddings and party-type events, with full pre-planning built in as standard so the day runs seamlessly. We pride ourselves on a genuinely hassle-free approach, leaving you free to actually enjoy your own evening instead of managing it.
More Than Someone Who Presses Play
We’ve played bars, clubs, private venues, parties and weddings for over 25 years, across every genre going. Easy listening, pop, rock, floor-fillers, house, and everything in between.
That’s where your DJ becomes a much bigger role than most people realise. Reading a room isn’t guesswork, it’s experience. Knowing when to hold back, when to build, and when to drop the track that fills the floor, that only comes from doing it hundreds of times.
A Music Library Built for Every Taste
We’ve got an extensive music collection spanning all eras and genres, so every taste in the room is catered for, not just the obvious ones. We’re just as happy working from your own playlist or your guide to preferred genres, and we’ll arrange any suggested songs into a proper flowing set, not a random jukebox order.
We’ll always consult with you on music and timing beforehand, so your party is memorable for you and your guests, for all the right reasons.
As part of your package, you also get your own online event planner. You’ll receive a unique link once you book, letting you update your event requirements and keep us in the loop on every detail, big or small. To make things even easier, we’ve got a music database of over 100,000 songs to build your own optional dream playlist.
Worried about keeping the energy up all night? We’ve put together a full guide on how to avoid an empty dance floor, with proven DJ icebreaker tricks that genuinely work.
How Much Does a Mobile Disco Cost in the UK?
Let’s break it down properly, because pricing is one of the biggest questions couples and party planners actually want answered.
Most UK mobile discos are priced somewhere between £300 and £700 for a clear, all-inclusive booking, with national averages sitting around £514 per event, rising to roughly £574 in London. Where you land in that range depends on a handful of practical factors.
| Pricing Factor | Why It Affects Your Quote |
|---|---|
| Date and time of year | Peak Saturdays in wedding season cost more than a quiet midweek party |
| Location and travel | Venues further from your DJ’s base add travel time and cost |
| Duration | A four hour evening slot costs less than an all-day ceremony-to-last-dance booking |
| Scale of the venue | Bigger rooms may need extra speakers, subwoofers or additional lighting |
| Extras | Up-lighting, photo booths, karaoke and silent discos add to the package |
Choosing purely on price alone is one of the riskiest ways to book a DJ. A cheaper quote that skips insurance, backup equipment, or proper consultation can cost you far more on the night than it saves in your budget. The safest way to get an accurate figure for your own date and venue is to get your Instant Online Quote rather than rely on averages alone.
How Long Does a Mobile Disco Actually Run For?
Most UK mobile discos run for around four to five hours of music, structured to match how an evening actually unfolds rather than just playing on a loop.
- Background music as guests arrive and settle in
- A short mic moment for speeches, toasts or announcements
- The main dancing block, building from warm-up tracks to full floor-fillers
No awkward gaps, no dead air while everyone waits around. That structure is exactly why timing and pre-planning matter so much, and it’s covered in your online event planner from day one.
PAT Testing and Public Liability Insurance, Explained
Just in case your venue asks for paperwork, we’ve got that covered. But it’s worth understanding what these terms actually mean, because most venues now insist on seeing proof before they’ll let any external supplier set up.
Public Liability Insurance (PLI) covers you and the venue if something goes wrong, equipment causing accidental damage, or a guest being injured near the DJ setup, for example. It’s cover most venues genuinely will not compromise on.
PAT testing (Portable Appliance Testing) is the annual electrical safety check on every piece of equipment we bring, cables, lighting rigs, sound gear, all of it. It confirms the equipment meets industry standards for electrical safety, which venues need to see before allowing anything to be plugged in on their premises. For detailed information on PAT testing standards, the IET Code of Practice provides comprehensive guidance.
We can supply all the necessary compliance documentation, including our Public Liability Insurance certificate, risk assessments, and electrical safety certificates, whenever your venue asks for them.
Questions Worth Asking Before You Book Any Mobile Disco
Whoever you end up booking, these are worth asking upfront:
- Can you show proof of Public Liability Insurance and current PAT testing?
- How many similar events have you played, weddings, corporate, milestone birthdays?
- What happens with song requests, is there an online planner or is it all done by email?
- Will you liaise directly with the venue on setup times and sound restrictions?
- What’s included as standard, and what counts as an extra?
Asking these questions upfront isn’t awkward, it’s exactly what a decent DJ expects and welcomes.
If you want a deeper look at everything this actually involves on the night, our guide to what a DJ actually does at an event breaks down the MC duties, music flow and timings most guests never notice, but definitely feel.
Weddings, Birthdays and Corporate Events, Tailored to You
Every event type needs a slightly different approach, and that’s exactly how we treat it.
For weddings, we consult closely on your running order, first dance, and how the day flows from ceremony music through to last orders on the dancefloor. For 18ths, 21sts and milestone birthdays, it’s about energy, requests, and reading a younger or mixed-age crowd all night without losing momentum. For corporate events, it’s professionalism, punctuality, and music pitched appropriately for the audience in the room, whether that’s background ambience or a full evening party.
Whatever the event, we coordinate directly with your venue on setup, access times and any sound limiters, so there are no surprises on the day.
Also, if you’re celebrating at one of the many LGBTQ+ friendly wedding venues across Cambridgeshire or anywhere else in the region, we’re here to make sure your special day has the perfect soundtrack and atmosphere from start to finish.
