Absolutely amazing service kept 47 kids entertained for 3hrs all age up too 13😅 definitely recommend will be using them again had lot people saying DJ was brilliant
Excellent service all round
It was easy to book. The bouncy castle was set up in time and taken down in time. Delivery was included in the hire charge. Very importantly, the children enjoyed bouncing on the castle. Thank you. Would recommend this company.

Wedding booking
Booked Playback Events for our wedding, and we weren't disappointed, what a great night. Booking was really easy and straightforward, we originally chose to have the disco, then later we added karaoke which went down well with our family and friends. Rich was professional and friendly playing all the songs we requested. He got everyone on their feet to either dance or sing. I would highly recommend booking Playback for your event. We would certainly use again.

Wedding Speeches
I was worried about delivering my groom speech at my wedding last Friday, so gave Playback a call on Monday to see if they had some mics we could borrow. Rich was so helpful and managed to squeeze us in last minute, and they setup a dual speaker behind the top table with 2 microphones. Very reasonably priced and it made all the difference on the day. Thank you Playback Events!

Fabulous Halloween Party
We attended the Halloween party at the weekend and it was fantastic. The management of the event was great, the team running it were always in control, had great interaction with the children and the DJ was energetic and fun. Great event and at a price point affordable for all.
Absolutely incredible!
Absolutely incredible! I booked you for my 30th birthday in Rainworth and sadly had a large amount of people cancel on me last minute, so the turnout was rather poor on my part, so I truly felt for the DJ. However! This did not deter him one bit and he did everything in his power to ensure I had a wonderful time, for those of my family and friends that DID make it, we had an amazing time dancing and even had a dance competition with the DJ which cracked us all up; my nieces in particular LOVED this!
I ensured when booking to request certain songs and genres, and all of these were honoured on the night, as well as additional requests from my guests, the DJ even found us our obscure K-Pop requests!
The lighting and display/set up was also incredible and really made the room sparkle.
I can’t thank you all enough for a wonderful 30th, I had an incredible time and genuinely think the DJ saved the night! I’ll be recommending you all to any friends and family and will ensure I book with yourselves again!

We attended a new years event with playback events and wow it really was such an amazing night. He kept the kids and the adults well entertained. Literally everyone was up dancing. He played such a great variety of music so there was literally something for everyone. Honestly it was the best night, we can’t wait for the next one.
Thank you Richard!
Don't have the karaoke in my opinion...
The owner of the company was a pleasure to deal with. I paid extra to have a karaoke, but the DJs however did not provide booklets/song sheets which is OK but they didn't even try to encourage guests to sing nor did they play requested songs. They were very young and seemed to just want to have a drink and play thier own taste in music, I requested mostly 80s and 90s (it was a 40th party) they barely played either! Most of the older guests we invited didnt stay as (I found out later) they didn't like the music. I won't use them again which is a shame as like I said the owner was lovely.
