Hi from Norfolk

[garybaldy]

Hi, im thinking about setting up a childrens disco business and ive joined this site to learn all i can. I need to be aware of the legalities, the equipment, safety/environment, party games, pricing, and how to generally be a childrens DJ.

I would like to play music for small children up to 12 years of age.

Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated as im a complete novice.
My partner does balloon twisting and decor, plus temporary tattoos. (She will be helping me with the party games)

Together we were hoping to sell ourselves as a 'party package'

Any member from norfolk who is doing the same thing, please let me know your catchment area. I dont want to tread on anyones toes and would rather work with, than against other djs

Hi Gary & :welcome2:

(Love the forum name BTW :D )

You'll find people very helpful of here: even when we overlap areas. We believe 'networking' rather than 'cut-throat' business practices benefit us all in the end ;)

You'll also find this thread will become just a 'hello' thread from the membership. Please feel free to post any specific questions you have in the relevant forums. (I would suggest you start having a good read in the Children's Entertainers Forum (http://www.forum.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=33) for starters :thumbsup:)

Welcome Gary, as has already been mentioned look in the Childrens Entertainer section of the forum. One person worth speaking to is Mr. Mayhem, who is probably the most experienced/best entertainer in this type of work, he is very knowledgeable and friendly and would be able to offer you invaluable advice. :)
