Kandice VincentWe had a company mixer coming up, which I had been dreading for weeks. I was like, not another night of fake-laughing with my obnoxious coworker, please.
It seemed like the universe heard me because when I got there, the vibe was different. Instead of the usual elevator music that could barely cover the awkward silences between not-so-close colleagues, we actually got a cool corporate DJ!
Pretty soon, everyone was bopping, dancing, low-key raving—all in all, having an awesome time. And to think I almost skipped this event; who would’ve thought that hiring a DJ would make all the difference between life and death (by boredom)?
So, to help you plan a proper shindig, forget the embarrassing karaoke numbers and corny conga line. Here’s my list of the best corporate DJs in Toronto.
How much do corporate DJs charge in Toronto?
Corporate DJs in Toronto typically charge $800 to $2500. Basic packages for shorter events may start on the lower end, while premium DJs with lighting setups, emcee services, or customization can run upwards of $2,000.
Factors like day of the week, time of year, and venue size can also impact pricing. Some DJs offer hourly rates, but many prefer flat-rate packages for corporate gigs.
1. Scottify Productions
Business Address: Queen Beverly Post Office, 260 Queen St W
Website: https://www.scottify.ca/
Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottify.ca
Contact Details: (416) 729-1973
Business Hours: Mon – Sat: Open 24 hours
Since 2017, Scottify Productions has been bringing fun and energy to weddings, youth events, and yes, corporate functions.
Their DJ/MCs are there to guide the event, providing music during a networking cocktail hour, elegant tunes for dinner, or full-on dance floor vibes later on.
And if you’re particular about music, go on their Mixlist portal—you can handpick as much music as you’d like before the office event.
We also like that they offer several packages to fit a range of needs and budgets. You can choose from a simple “Plug & Play” DJ setup to packages with lighting and speakers.
For added fun, you can add a photo booth to your company party.
Note that you might want to book your corporate gig in advance, especially from May to October, which is peak wedding season.
He kept the dance floor full while incorporating our music
“Working with Scott was a dream! He did an amazing job in ensuring everything ran smoothly and on time. He also provided helpful tips and ensured everything met our preferences. Many guests complimented our DJ and how he kept the dance floor full while incorporating our music. I highly recommend Scott for any future events. Additionally, we had a photobooth, which was a huge hit, and the attendant running the booth was fantastic. They exceeded our expectations. You can’t go wrong hiring Scottify Productions!”

Spot-on music and worked in last-minute requests
“We had a great experience with Scott from Scottify, from start to finish. He’s a pro, and can guide you through his perspective on the process, leaving you feeling relaxed and confident that things are covered. We were a bit anxious about being over- or under-prescriptive about the music selections, but after chatting with him, it was clear he had it covered. He was receptive and flexible to our preferences and was able to fill in the gaps beyond that. Day of, his work was great. The music was spot-on, responsive to the crowd, and even worked in some last-minute requests we’d made, late in the planning process. Would absolutely recommend!”

2. Dialed-In DJs
Business Address: 1938 Bloor St W
Website: https://www.dialedindjs.com/
Instagram: Dialed-In DJs (@dialedindjs)
Phone Number: (647) 850-5692
Business Hours: Mon-Sun: Open 24 hours
Dialed-In DJs is a female-owned, LGBTQ-friendly DJ company that has been spinning since 2013. It’s led by Maren and Lucie, who have over three decades of experience rocking weddings, nightclubs, festivals, and corporate affairs.
I’m impressed by Maren, who has performed with major artists like Cyndi Lauper and Diplo. In fact, she’s a music producer herself.
They also have resident DJ and MC Lucie, who has a notable corporate client list—including Nike, Harley-Davidson, H&M, and Molson Coors. She even toured as the official DJ for the FIFA Women’s World Cup Trophy Tour.
As pros, they’re open to personalizing your event. Past requests include a custom mix of Greek and Latin American music and even a lion dance performance soundtrack.
Expect their fees to be high due to their extensive corporate experience.
Such a fantastic DJ, we could not have been happier!
“Lucie was such a fantastic DJ and we could not have been happier! She was extremely flexible regarding our various music preferences and allowed us to choose as much or as little of the music as we wanted. She provided us with many helpful questions and suggestions to make sure the evening went smoothly and everyone was living it up on the dance floor! We highly recommend that anyone and everyone work with Lucie!”

Best tunes kept our dance floor going all night
“Maren was such a dream to work with. Tom and I love music, and we felt that Maren was such a fantastic match for our tastes. In addition to being an incredibly cool human being, Maren played the best tunes and kept our dance floor going all night. I loved glancing over and seeing her jamming to the songs she was playing. We couldn’t have chosen a better person to DJ and MC our wedding. Thank you so much, Maren! We had a perfect day, and you helped make that happen! We will remember it forever!”

3. Disc Jockeys Unlimited
Business Address: Dupont St & Christie St
Website: https://www.discjockeysunlimited.com/
Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dju_toronto/
Contact Details: (416) 537-2065
Business Hours:
- Mon – Thurs: 1 PM – 6:30 PM
- Friday: 1 PM – 5 PM
- Saturday: 2 PM – 5 PM
Disc Jockeys Unlimited or DJU was created in 1963. We like that the current owner, Ivan, has DJ’d at over 1,000 events.
You can begin with a pre-event phone consultation, followed by access to a private client portal, which acts like a 247 event planning assistant. It helps you manage music choices, timelines, and other important details.
Every corporate DJ package includes a licensed DJ who arrives early, sets up a sound system with lighting, and provides basic MC services—ideal for groups of 100+.
Music-wise, you’ll be listening to customized tunes, from 1940s classics to the latest hits. The sky’s the limit since you’ll have access to their library of over 80,000 tracks.
While the company’s long history is impressive, some of the branding and materials might feel a bit old-school compared to newer DJ services.
Would definitely invite Ivan to perform again
“We hired Ivan for a corporate event. Our team is quite pleased with the experience. Ivan set up everything ahead of time, the music was according to our taste, and Ivan was entertaining. Would definitely invite Ivan to perform again.”

Ivan was the life of my party!
“Ivan was the life of my party! He played the songs requested and was a pleasure to deal with! We can’t thank him enough. He gets 5 stars ++++++. I recommend him for any venue.”

4. Kooltempo Toronto DJ Services
Business Address: 161 Bay St
Website: https://www.kooltempo.com/
Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kooltempodj
Contact Details: (647) 966-4141
Business Hours: Mon – Sun: Open 24 hours
Kooltempo Toronto DJ Services is a mobile DJ company that’s low-key famous. They were the #1 DJ service in Toronto in ThreeBestRated.ca and have snagged the WeddingWire Couples’ Choice Awards for seven years straight.
They offer customizable music in various genres—hip-hop, reggae, disco, rock, dance, and more. Plus, their DJs use top-tier gear from Numark, Pioneer, QSC, and Yorkville, as well as controlled intelligent lighting from American DJ and Chauvet.
We like that they’re the only DJ company in the 6ix that offers a satisfaction guarantee. That’s probably why they have an amazing corporate client list, which includes Microsoft, Costco, Ikea, Estee Lauder, and Telus, just to name a few.
A heads up about possible bumps on the road—some clients have mentioned occasional bad mixes, where transitions between songs felt off.
I can’t ask for a better DJ
“Kooltempo/Dave was such an easy vendor to work with. I’m so thankful they were able to accommodate us through 2 date changes because of the pandemic. They have a system wherein you just fill it with genres/songs of your choice, and they’ll do the rest. I can’t ask for a better DJ. Thank you again for everything.”

Dave was a fantastic DJ
“Dave was a fantastic DJ. Very organized and professional. The equipment was high quality and brand new. Was able to gauge the audience to get the dance floor moving and to keep it moving. Highly recommended!”

5. Maximum Music DJ Service
Business Address: 4 Mimico Ave, Etobicoke
Website: https://maximumdj.com/
Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maximum.dj/
Contact Details: (647) 549-6642
Business Hours: Mon – Sun: Open 24 hours
Maximum Music DJ Service has over 30 years of experience. Their mission is quite simple—pack dance floors with guests and make sure the event flows smoothly.
Before your corporate event, they partner with you to help plan the party and create a celebration that fits your brand or team vibe. Then, they set up and use high-end sound systems that fill the space.
As for playing songs, their DJs read the room and mix on the spot. They also weave in your “must plays,” making sure the mood is curated based on your preferences.
In addition to company parties, they’re available for weddings, quinceañeras, Sweet Sixteens, fundraisers, and more.
Unfortunately, we heard about deposit refund issues for events that were canceled or didn’t happen. This seems unfair, especially if their former clients followed the cancellation policy.
Absolute blast because every song was a favorite
“I was not certain whether to get a DJ – I am so incredibly happy that Rod, the owner gave me a call to chat, which convinced me to hire his team. Rod was extremely responsive, professional, and a joy to work with. Our DJ, Nigel, was absolutely exceptional. He nailed our music taste to a T, and he really ensured an amazing night was had. All of our friends have been commenting on what an amazing playlist he had and that they couldn’t believe how great he was. We are pretty laid-back, so I didn’t know what to expect from a DJ, but it was an absolute blast because every song was a favourite. We danced until the venue kicked us out! Thank you, Rod and Nigel!”

Anthony (DJ) was absolutely amazing!
“Anthony (DJ) was absolutely amazing! He kept checking in with us and making sure we stayed on track with timing. He was a great MC. He was great with the kids by showing them the cool buttons on the equipment, which they loved! He played a great variety of music, and our guests had a great time dancing. He went above and beyond. Definitely felt like everything was in good hands for our special day. The whole process of booking with maximum music was easy and straightforward. It was great working with Rod and Anthony.”
