On Avg, How much do Dj's earn per gig?

June 7, 2011, 11:35:18 AM

I know we have covered this in years past, but I am curious to find out if those numbers have gone up in recent years or gone down?

So what can a dj make in one night? Of course it probably depends on the size of the club, the location, the night/event, etc.

GO!

Re: On Avg, How much do Dj's earn per gig?

I would also like to mention that as an artist myself, I fully realize that money is not the driving factor in why dj's do what they do. I am sure artistic expression, happiness, excitement and having an otherwise very interesting and unique life experience is what counts .

Simply curious.

Couple of years ago, i think mid 2009 or so, someone trusty told me that Luke Fair earn 3000 euros for a 3 to 4 hours mix.. Not bad at all if you consider 2 to 3 shows per week

I assume legends like Sasha, Warren, Diggers or Hernan earns more than this

Re: On Avg, How much do Dj's earn per gig?

I reckon fees have gone down considerably in the last 10 years. I remember going to Gatecrasher for Oakenfold back in 1999 the venue was rammed and there where still about 2,000 people outside. I remember similar scenes outside Turnmills, Cream Gods Kitchen, Renaissance etc. I haven't seen anything like that since 2001

The economic financial melt down has meant [MS] had to cut the moderators wages so I opted to go as I have had a large financial wind fall.
