Book an artist in Sweden

It depends on the DJ, the length of the set and the type of event. A professional DJ usually costs SEK 6,000–15,000 per night, while well-known names can charge more. Newer DJs building their careers often charge from SEK 4,000 - great for smaller parties. The price in the reply is what you pay – Jocky doesn't add a booking fee.

A troubadour (an acoustic singer-guitarist) usually costs SEK 6,000–15,000 per night, much the same as a DJ. A live band with several musicians is typically SEK 15,000–40,000 depending on the number of members, set length and travel. You always get a firm price from the artist before you decide, with no booking fee from Jocky.

No. Searching, listening and sending requests is completely free, with no obligation. You only pay once you've chosen an artist and confirmed the booking.

Most artists reply within a few hours and almost all within 24 hours. If you send your request to several at once, you see all the replies in one place and can compare price, availability and format straight away.

As well as DJs, you can book live bands, troubadours, saxophonists, quiz hosts and stand-up comedians. They're all booked the same way – search, send a request, compare and choose.

It means we've checked their identity and contact details and that the artist can invoice – through their own company or through Jocky. Verified artists have also accepted our terms on cancellations and delivery, so you know where you stand before you book.

Yes. Jocky has artists all over the country, with the widest selection in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö. Many are happy to travel – just say where the event is and the artist will include any travel in their reply.

Yes. We book far more artists than the ones shown on the site. Tell us who or what kind of artist you're after, and we'll tap into our network and get back to you with suggestions – usually the same day. Contact us and we'll sort it out.

If the artist falls ill or can't make it, we'll help you find a replacement at short notice – often the same day. You never pay for a gig that doesn't happen.
