We specialize in school dances. Whether you are hosting a large homecoming dance, throwing a glow dance party with black lights, or want to set the perfect atmosphere for your winter formal or prom, make your school dance one to remember with DJ Illusion.

Our dances start with state-of-the-art sound and lighting, brought to life using haze that makes beams of light visible through the air. And we keep the dance floor packed all night long with dance music and remixes, mixed live like it's played in clubs. Our music catalogue is kept up-to-date with the latest hits, and we play clean-edits of music, appropriate for guests of all ages, keeping both students and school administrators happy.

Our school dance packages range from $999 for a short, two-hour dance with up to about 250 students and can grow to upwards of $3,000 for our Club-Style packages that support large school dances of over 1,000 students. All packages include professional sound, lighting, setup, and teardown. No hidden fees.

DJ Illusion specializes in hosting school dances, from homecoming and prom to winter formals, TOLO, and spring fling. We even offer neon glow/black light dance packages to support your theme dances.

Yes, we play censored, radio-appropriate music suitable for guests of all ages. Students can request the songs they enjoy and administrators don't have to worry about explicit lyrics coming out of the speakers.

Both. Students are invited to submit requests and playlists ahead of time, and during the dance they can make live requests right from their phones using a scannable QR code. No app download needed. We weave requests into the live mix so the dance floor stays packed.

Yes. Purchase orders, school invoicing, ASB funding, parent committee checks, you name it. We make the paperwork easy on your end. We have master services agreements established with many of the school districts around Seattle making the booking process as easy as signing a statement of work to get a PO started.

For dances with up to about 250 guests, we use the RCF EVOX 12 column array system. For larger dances we leverage various configurations of JBL VRX continuous-array speakers and up to four 18" subwoofers for bass you can feel.

We include a professional, concert-grade hazer with most of our lighting packages. Haze is what makes beams of light visible through the air. We always confirm your venue's haze policy with you ahead of time.

Yes. Uplighting transforms your venue with customizable color washes along the walls and architectural features. It's a popular upgrade for prom and homecoming dances.

Absolutely. We bring backup laptops and audio/lighting redundancy to every event. Equipment failure isn't something you'll have to stress about.

As many schools are looking to book on the same days for spring prom and fall homecoming, we encourage you to book 6 to 12 months in advance. Our calendar books up quickly. Once your dance dates are confirmed for the year, we would encourage you to reach out right away.

We arrive one to three hours before events for load-in and setup, depending on the package and add-ons you select. Teardown generally takes about an hour. Things like how close to your stage we can unload, if we need to use an elevator or traverse stairs, all impact how quickly we can work. We coordinate directly with your venue coordinator to keep it smooth.

We cover the Greater Seattle area including Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Renton, Kent, Federal Way, Tacoma, Everett, and surrounding communities. Contact us for events outside this range.
