Most disc jockeys earn between $5,000 and $40,000 per year. Lots of things can factor into that dollar amount. The disc jockey could be doing school dances every week for $100 each or they could be doing wedding 3 times a month for $1000 each.or example, I know there were radio DJs in New Orleans who made minimum wage. Most club and bar disc jockeys earn less than $25 per hour and many make minimum wage (or play for free). Mobile disc jockeys typically charge between $50 and $200 per hour. However, that shouldn't be confused with how much money they make.
