The agreement
Terms & conditions
Plain-English terms for booking Xavish. They exist so both sides know where they stand — nothing hidden, nothing unreasonable. Last updated 11 August 2026.
01Who you're dealing with
“Xavish”, “we” or “us” means the DJ and entertainment service operating as Xavish, based in Sydney, New South Wales, ABN 44 124 605 622. “You” means the person or organisation making the booking. Contact: xavish.dj@gmail.com · 0432 832 670.
02Making a booking
An enquiry through this website is not a booking. A booking is confirmed only when we have agreed the date, location, performance times and fee in writing (email or message is fine), and any agreed deposit has been received.
Until then the date stays open and may be taken by someone else. We’ll always tell you if another enquiry comes in for your date before you confirm.
03Deposits, fees and payment
A 50% deposit confirms your booking and secures the date. It is deducted from your total fee. The remaining 50% is payable on or before the event date, unless we agree something different in writing.
The deposit is non-refundable. It reflects a genuine cost to us: once your date is confirmed we stop taking enquiries for it and turn other work away.
Additional time beyond the agreed finish, extra travel, or extra equipment requested on the night may attract an additional fee, agreed with you at the time.
04Changes and cancellations
Plans change — tell us as early as you can and we’ll do our best to help, including moving your booking to another available date where we’re free. Where we can move you rather than cancel, your deposit moves with you.
If you cancel, the cancellation fee is 50% of the agreed fee — which is covered by the deposit you have already paid. Nothing further is owed, and the deposit is not refunded. Please give us at least one month’s notice before the event date wherever you can, so we have a fair chance of refilling it.
If we ever have to cancel due to serious illness, injury, or events genuinely beyond our control, we will tell you immediately, help find a suitable replacement DJ where possible, and refund amounts you have paid for the performance that did not go ahead.
05What we need from you
To perform safely and well we need: safe and lawful access to the venue at the agreed setup time, a dry and weather-protected performance area, safe access to mains power, and enough space for equipment.
Please make sure the venue is aware of the booking and of any noise limits, curfews or equipment restrictions that apply. Where a venue imposes a limit — including any noise limiter or curfew — we will comply with it.
06Equipment, safety and behaviour
Our equipment remains our property at all times. Only Xavish and approved crew may operate it. You are responsible for loss or damage to our equipment caused by you, your guests or your other suppliers, other than fair wear and tear.
We want everyone to have a great night. We may pause or end a performance if there is a genuine risk to anyone’s safety or to the equipment, including threatening or abusive behaviour. We’ll always try to resolve the situation with you first.
07Music, requests and licensing
We take requests and build the set around your crowd, but final track selection and mixing remain our creative decision, using our professional judgement on the night.
Music licensing for public performance at a venue (for example APRA AMCOS licensing) is generally the responsibility of the venue or event organiser, not the DJ. Please check your venue holds the licences it needs.
08Photos and video
We sometimes capture short clips or photos of the setup, the lighting and the dance floor to share on our social media or website. If you would prefer we don’t post anything from your event, just tell us — before or after — and we won’t, or we’ll take it down.
09Liability
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law, which cannot be excluded.
Where the law allows us to limit our liability, our total liability in connection with a booking is limited to re-supplying the services or refunding the fee you paid for them. We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, and we are not responsible for failures caused by venue equipment, venue power, or restrictions imposed by the venue.
10Website content
The Xavish name, logo, panther mark and site content are owned by us or used with permission, and may not be reproduced without consent. Photography and footage used for atmosphere on this site is either our own or licensed stock, and does not represent any specific event or endorsement.
11Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. If something goes wrong, talk to us first — most things are sorted with a phone call.
