Back to the Future-Themed Party in Burbank (Los Angeles DJ Serving Burbank, Hollywood, and Glendale)

 

Recently, I had the chance to DJ a truly unique kids' party in Burbank at Fun Ton Studio— a Back to the Future themed celebration!

The event took place at an actual movie studio, setting the perfect stage for a cinematic experience. From the moment I arrived, the décor was incredible: giant Back to the Future billboards personalized with the birthday boy’s name, colorful balloon displays, and even a miniature replica of the band set from the famous "Enchantment Under the Sea" scene. But the real star of the show? A full-size DeLorean Time Machine complete a driver who stayed the entire four hours.

When it came to the music, the theme guided the soundtrack. I started by curating a playlist inspired by the original Back to the Future soundtrack, which includes about 14 iconic tracks. I also added hits from popular 80s movies to keep the vibe authentic and fun. A few days before the event, the client sent over their playlist — and it was excellent! It had the kind of energy and track selection I would personally spin at my  own party.

What really made the night special was the feedback. The DeLorean driver came up to me and said the night flew by thanks to the music, and that the transitions were some of the best he’d ever heard. It’s moments like those that remind me why I love DJing events in Burbank and the greater Los Angeles area.

I was part of this event one more time. The first part of the night was dedicated to easy listening and we played songs by Kenny G which were mostly instrumentals. They also requested the Rat Pack such like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. For the most part, they were announcing winners for raffles and everyone eagerly waited for their number to be called.

  This group loved the slow songs so we had a few special ones that they enjoyed.  At Last by Etta James, Elvis Presley I Can’t Help Falling in Love and It’s a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong were slow song classics that got everyone to the floor.

We did a who has been married the longest contest where we excused folks who have only been married 5 years, then 8, then 15 then 20 and 25. The winning couple spent 65 years together so that by far was the longest than everyone in the building. We did a little country but most of the music was 80s music and the song that really got a good feedback was Standing Still by Elton John.

It was a good vibe overall for the event. It was held in the church hall which is super nice but they rarely have events there. It can easily be rented out for events but the church just does it for its own events. I believe they just want to keep it nice. People loved the old school music. They liked the disco and the 80’s classics. The hosts treated me well and it was a good event which everyone seemed happy.
