My Experience as a DJ at Crowne Plaza Reading East

I've performed at Crowne Plaza Reading East many times and know exactly how to make the most of its acoustics, layouts, and vibe - especially within the ceremony and reception spaces, where ambience and lighting play such a huge role.

Whether it's setting the tone during your ceremony or keeping the dancefloor buzzing in the reception area, I tailor everything to match the feel of your day.

Crowne Plaza Reading East is a modern four-star hotel near Reading with two main function spaces: the Buckingham Suite for larger celebrations and the Frogmore Suite for more intimate ones. With over 174 bedrooms, spa facilities, and on-site parking, it takes the hassle out of guest logistics. The well-proportioned suites and modern fit-out make it straightforward to set up a sound and lighting rig that fills the room properly.
