What we handle
Why a valley party needs a little extra planning
Lewiston sits lower than anywhere else in Idaho, and summer evenings in the valley stay warm long after dark. That suits a late outdoor dance, but gear and guests both need shade during the day and a plan for power on a lawn or patio. Dark Star is based in Coeur d'Alene, a little under three hours north by road, so your DJ arrives early to load in and test sound before anyone shows up.
These are the kinds of Lewiston events the Party & Event DJ service is built for.
Milestone birthdays
A set that runs through the decades your guests grew up with, a microphone for toasts and lights that turn a rented room into a club.
Class and family reunions
Give your DJ the era your classmates danced to and the songs that defined it, and the night plays like a yearbook.
School and campus dances
Dance-floor lighting changes a gym or campus hall. Your DJ follows school rules on lyrics and volume and keeps students moving.
After-parties
When a reception wraps early, an after-party in a hotel lounge or rented room keeps going with its own music.
House shows
A show in a living room or rented space gets sound sized to the room, then your DJ turns it into a dance party.
Riverside summer gatherings
Outdoor parties near the water need power, a covered spot for gear and a sound plan that respects any park rules on amplified music.

- Start and finish times: An evening birthday and a late after-party need different hours. Tell us when the music starts and when the last song plays.
- Kind of crowd: A school dance, a reunion and a house show each call for different pacing, sound levels and lighting.
- Indoors or out: Outdoor sites may need extra cable, a power source and cover from sun or a passing storm.
- Live music: Acoustic guitar, piano or vocals during dinner is the only add-on, charged for each hour it is performed.

Questions we get
Do you charge travel for a party in Lewiston?
Lewiston is a long drive south from Coeur d'Alene, so travel is part of planning any event there. The cost depends on your venue and timing, so ask us with your details and it will show up clearly in your quote.
Can you run music at an outdoor summer party in the valley?
Yes, with a few basics in place: power within reach, a shaded or covered spot for the gear and a start time that works with the heat. Many valley parties wait until the sun drops before the dancing begins.
Our class reunion has a wide age range. How do you handle that?
Fill the must-play list with songs from your school years and add anything the group will not tolerate to the do-not-play list. Your DJ blends eras and watches who is on the floor, changing course when the room tells them to.
What should a school send before a dance?
Your DJ needs the building and room, the start and end of the dance, a rough headcount and the school's rules on explicit lyrics. Put banned tracks on the do-not-play list in the portal so chaperones can check it ahead of time.
Are the microphones and gear kept clean?
Yes. Gear is sanitized between events, and single-use earplugs come along for anyone who wants a break from the volume. Speakers can be aimed away from tables where people want to talk.
