Entrance, set or both?
A flexible format for the way your event flows
In Newhaven, an entrance moves with people from a defined starting point to a clear destination. A performance set stays within an agreed area and gives guests a focused live feature. If your day would benefit from both, share the order and the time between each moment.
For an outdoor moment in Newhaven, include the walking surface, likely weather cover and any limit on where live music can begin. For an indoor set, the available floor space, guest position and sound handover become more important.
For a baraat or groom entrance in Newhaven, include the gathering point, expected route and who will lead the group. Explore our wedding dhol service and baraat and groom entrance guide.
DJ and venue coordination
Keep everyone working from the same plan
Dhol players can coordinate with a DJ when the handover is agreed in advance. Tell us whether the DJ will make an announcement, play a particular track or lower the music for the live entrance, and name the person who will give the final cue.
For a home departure or multi-address event in Newhaven, send the locations in order and allow for the handover between them. The dhol moment should fit the wider day rather than create pressure elsewhere in the schedule.
For Newhaven, venue access matters too. Let us know about parking or loading, stairs or lifts, outdoor surfaces, sound restrictions and where the players can wait without blocking guests or staff.
