You know that feeling when you’re having a great time at a work party and then the DJ drops some intense techno beats that just… don’t fit? Yeah, we’ve been there.
At our year-end party, we hired a DJ recommended by an employee–he crushed it at her birthday, so we figured we were in good hands.
But as soon as the music started, we found ourselves awkwardly looking at our boss because of the highly inappropriate music the DJ played
We didn’t want to risk another cringe-worthy moment, so the next time we hosted a party, we took it upon ourselves to find the corporate DJs in Calgary who actually have the skill set to handle the vibes at corporate events.
We researched, talked to companies who have hired DJs, and even reached out to DJs themselves to make sure we only list down the best.
Stick around to see who made the list!

1. YYC DJ Services
Address: 918 16 Ave NW #157
Phone: +1 587-854-3310
Business hours:
- Monday to Saturday: 8 AM – 5 PM
- Sunday: Closed
YYC DJ Services really impressed us with their response rate. When we reached out for an undercover consultation, their team responded immediately and answered all of our questions. Past clients also said they always ensured the planning process was smooth and stress-free.
The DJs here know how to keep the energy high without making the event awkward and cringey. They’re great at connecting with the crowd and can seamlessly switch from DJing to emceeing when needed.
We also like that their custom playlists perfectly match their clients’ tastes and are always tailored to their preferences. This shows their ability to meet client requests while still transforming the venue into a lively space.
We were also impressed by their high-quality sound, video screens, and lighting setup. If you don’t want to stress about hiring different people, they’re worth considering.
They cater to corporate events, weddings, and even festivals, which tells so much about their versatility.
However, they’re closed on Sundays, and Saturday services wrap up at 5 pm. It’d be great if they could extend their hours on the weekends when parties usually happen.
They are professional, punctual, friendly and very easygoing
“If you’re in need of a professional DJ service for any event don’t hesitate to contact these guys; they are professional, punctual and above all else, friendly and very easygoing. They aren’t the cheapest in town, but if you pay for crumb cake, expect to get just that..especially if you’re planning a wedding, why would you ever cheap out on the biggest party that you’ll ever throw? Weddings are the equivalent to the Superbowl of parties, best to make it beyond memorable and forget about getting your cousin with a Bluetooth speaker to run the dance”

We knew he would be perfect for our wedding

2. Pez Productions DJ Calgary
Phone: +1 403-980-2172
Business hours:
- Monday to Friday: 10 AM – 5 PM
- Saturday to Sunday: 12 PM – 4 PM
Pez Productions knows how to create unforgettable corporate events by tailoring their services to match the vibe and preferences of their clients. They’re especially skilled at customising events and have even pulled off some themed parties.
Former clients mentioned that their team is full of creative ideas and suggests ways to improve the experience.
We witnessed their team expertly set up a lighting display which completely enhanced the atmosphere of the venue. Their LED dance floor was also a huge hit. It’s something you won’t find with many other DJs.
It’s also impressive how smoothly they transition between songs while keeping the energy high throughout the event.
What we appreciate about them is how their team is always prepared with backup plans for DJs, equipment, and technical issues. It says a lot about their professionalism and reliability.
However, they may not be the best fit for last-minute events. You’ll need to book them a few months in advance, and they require a 50% deposit upfront.
The whole team brought everything we hoped for and more to our event
“We used Fayyaz and the Pez team for our recent Banff wedding and could not have been happier with our decision. The whole team made planning a breeze & brought everything we hoped for and more to our event. From the ceremony to the cocktails to our reception – everything was professional & seamless. Everyone knows music is the most important thing at a wedding reception to set the mood and Fayyaz did an impeccable job. We had an absolute blast at our wedding and so did our guests – I could not imagine the day without Pez!”
– Ellie Butchard, Google review
They made me feel very confident in who we chose to DJ/MC our wedding
“Nigel from Pez Productions was the DJ for our wedding. Everything from the ceremony to the reception was perfect, both us and our guests enjoyed all the music the whole night! The process of going with Pez Productions was easy and they made me feel very confident in who we chose to DJ/MC our wedding. We would recommend them for any event time and time again!”

3. Boyd Entertainment
Address: 35 Prestwick Cove SE
Phone: +1 403-703-8869
Business hours: Monday to Sunday: Open 24 hours
Boyd Entertainment knows how to cover all the bases. They offer packages that cover everything from DJs and MCs to lighting, and even photo booths.
It’s a great setup because it saves you from having to book multiple vendors, which makes planning way easier. Plus, their range of packages works for different event sizes and budgets, so there’s something for everyone.
Their DJs are seriously skilled too. One former client mentioned that she asked for a last-minute song change at their event, and the team handled it calmly and collected.
Their digital photo booth was another highlight. It’s a fantastic way to capture memories and gives guests something interactive to enjoy.
However, we did hear from someone who didn’t get to hear their requested songs. While some DJs in their team are great with requests, others may not be as flexible. It’s worth checking in about that when booking them.
The ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner music were all lined up perfectly
“Boyd Entertainment was so great to work with! Vince kept everything so organized with email updates, fillable information forms, and answers to any questions I had, he was a fantastic MC during our wedding as well! The ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner music were all lined up and on point perfectly, Vince is so friendly and easygoing, and he kept the dance floor bumping all night!”
– Katie M., Google review
Our guests were talking about how much they loved his music selection!
“Vince Boyd brought our wedding reception to life!! He has his own unique rhythm and style. All the guests at our wedding were talking about how much they loved his music selection! Highly recommend Vince for any event!!”

4. Dance! Shout! Productions
Address: 2704 Palliser Dr SW
Phone: +1 403-829-8080
Business hours:
- Monday to Friday: 9 AM – 5 PM
- Saturday: 12 PM – 4 PM
- Sunday: Closed
With over 20 years of experience, Dance! Shout! Production’s reputation speaks for itself. They’ve worked with big names like Safeway and Garmin which says a lot about their quality of service.
We loved how their DJs kept things professional with their attire but still knew how to make the dance floor fun. It’s also a nice touch that they slightly decorate their equipment that complement whatever the event’s aesthetic is.
They’ve got a great sense of timing too. They know exactly what song to play next to keep the crowd happy.
Pricing is simple, with their standard package covering up to six hours. That includes wireless mics, LED dance floor lighting and unlimited consultations. We think this helps ensure your event turns out how you want it.
If you’re looking for extras, they also offer photo booths and event lighting.
Just keep in mind they’re pretty popular in the area so booking them might be difficult. We’d suggest locking them in a few months ahead of your event.
The entire party is still raving about how great he did
“We hired Dane! Shout! for our company Christmas party and I have nothing but great things to say about working with this team and DJ Dwight! The scheduling was very easy and Jason was so easy to work with. DJ Dwight was so much fun the entire party is still raving about how great he did and how much he connected with the group. We will definitely be hiring them again for our next event!”
– Madison Huffman, Google review
He ensured the music and setup fit our taste and event space
“Our wedding experience with Jason was fantastic. In addition to walking us through what to expect on our special day, he ensured the music and setup fit our taste and event space. The dance floor was never empty and he definitely knew how to work the crowd with the transitions! Definitely Calgary’s best DJ!!”

5. Revolution Entertainment Inc
Address: 2 Ave NE Unit 416
Phone: +1 780-452-5211
Business hours: Monday to Sunday: 9 AM – 8 PM
Revolution Entertainment has been in the business for over 20 years, and they offer different DJ packages you can choose from whether you have a big or small event.
Their Revolution Experience package is a great option if you want it more personalised without stressing over the event’s flow. It already comes with a DJ who takes song requests and even organizes games to keep things lively.
When it comes to their DJ service, we loved how their playlist was a blend of crowd-pleasing hits to those personal requests that make each event special. That seems to be the reason the dance floor stayed packed, and the energy never dropped.
They can also take on the role of MC, and clients have said they’re easy to work with, asking all the right questions to make sure the event goes smoothly.
Their sound system was crystal clear. There were no hiccups with the microphones or music transitions.
However, we’ve heard from some previous clients who’ve had issues with refunds. It’s important to check the contract before securing them to avoid any of these reports.
He was responsive and a good communicator ahead of time
“I am beyond happy with Revolution! I had Quinton, one of the owners, as the DJ for our Party and he was the absolute best! He was responsive and a good communicator ahead of time, listened to all of our planning and special requests and was very professional. He literally played every single song I asked him to and kept the dance floor full all night! The music flowed perfectly throughout the night and his MCing was timely, clear and on point. I highly recommend it!!!”
– William Akio, Google review
They were super easy to work with and had great communication
“We had an amazing experience with Revolution Entertainment! They were super easy to work with and had great communication throughout the process. The booth itself was a breeze to set up and use, and it was a hit at our wedding!! Everyone had so much fun using it! The photos were uploaded to a Dropbox link afterwards, making it easy to share with our guests. Highly recommend their service and products, everything was seamless and perfect!”
