Kiwi DJs Nelson

DJ Nelson

Planning an event at the top of the South Island? Kiwi DJs covers Nelson, Tasman and Marlborough, bringing the same team standard we run everywhere: an experienced DJ, quality sound and lighting, and wireless microphones for speeches.

The region is wedding country, with vineyard venues through Marlborough, coastal sites towards Abel Tasman and golden weather that books outdoor ceremonies with confidence. We also cover corporate functions, birthdays and parties across Nelson city.

Send a Spotify playlist through before the night so your DJ arrives with the list, or brief the DJ and let them read the room. Requests are welcome from the first dance to the last.

Vineyards, beaches and the golden hour

Nelson and Marlborough weddings lean outdoors, from Moutere vineyards to beaches near Kaiteriteri, which makes ceremony sound planning the local skill. Battery powered speakers, wind aware microphones and a second full setup at the reception venue are standard practice, and travel from Nelson city across Tasman and Marlborough is priced into every quote.
