DJ Ali was brilliant for my Mum and Dad wedding renewal, great selection of music genres for all different ages of people who came. We've used city nights disco for all of our events we have and been amazing every time, also so easy to get hold of and quick responses and good prices too for the service given, would highly recommend.

Tony was just brilliant for my son's 5th birthday. He kept all the children fully entertained and they all had a brilliant time. There was a great mixture of games and dancing and he worked closely with us to ensure it ran smoothly. I would highly recommend!

Fantastic service & value from this local/regional DJ agency, thanks to Vernon and his partner in crime Tony. Professional setup, fully insured and a wonderful vibe at our nine year olds birthday party. If we organise another disco or want to bring the noise, we know who to call!

Just wanted to write and say how fabulous Tony was! He really did make the evening. It was a surprise for our group of friends who we have not been able to party with for months so it made it even more special. It was a Murder Mystery - Murder at the Disco and Tony set the tone brilliantly and played the best Disco tunes. My friend Jane summed it up by saying I havent danced that much in ages
Thank you so much and Im sure we will be using Tony again!

We were so pleased with everything - right from our initial enquiry, through the arrangements/booking process and of course the night itself. DJ Tony was great and we couldn't be happier with how he did it.
If/when we arrange another party, City Nights Disco will definitely be top of our list to book again!
