Live percussion and djembe in Kortrijk
My home base. In Kortrijk and the surrounding towns I can be at your party within fifteen minutes.
Playing in my own town
In the Kortrijk area I have played almost 20 times since 2023, in Kortrijk itself and six neighbouring towns.
Kortrijk is home. I have played Kamping Kitsch here twice, as well as a public city event and a New Year's Eve party. In 2026 I played a wedding at Hoeve de Blauwpoorte. In the neighbouring towns I am a familiar face: five nights at Oud Gemeentehuis in Moen, club nights at Diedjies in Kuurne and Supernova in Waregem, parties in Deerlijk and Ledegem, and a wedding at De Stal in Wervik.
Travel time is minimal. From Kortrijk to Waregem, Harelbeke, Menen or Zwevegem takes fifteen to twenty minutes. That also makes it easy to visit the venue beforehand or meet your DJ.

Farmhouses, party halls and companies around Kortrijk
Around Kortrijk you will find plenty of farmhouses, party halls and renovated wedding venues, from the banks of the Leie to the countryside around Anzegem, Deerlijk and Wevelgem. They are often venues where a DJ carries the night and a live act makes the difference.
The area also has a strong business community. For a staff party, New Year reception or summer party in Kortrijk, Waregem or Harelbeke, live percussion breaks the ice after the speeches. See corporate events or weddings.
Winter nights in Moen, summer at Kamping Kitsch
Around Kortrijk the balance is different from the coast. Here I play as often in winter as in summer. Oud Gemeentehuis in Moen is the best example: five nights between November and April, in a cosy bar where the djembe stands right among the crowd. In summer it moves outdoors, with the retro stage at Kamping Kitsch and garden parties in Deerlijk and Waregem.
For a wedding or company party in the area that is handy: I know the venues, distances are short and it is easy to meet your DJ or venue. Mouscron and the French border are just around the corner too.
Questions about events in Kortrijk
Question not listed? Send me a message.
Can you visit our venue near Kortrijk beforehand?
Yes, around Kortrijk that is easy. A short visit helps choose the best spot and check power and space. We will find a time that suits you and the venue.
How quickly can you be on site?
Within fifteen to twenty minutes in most towns around Kortrijk. Travel is fully included. I always arrive in good time to set up and test.
Does live percussion work with our venue's sound limiter?
We check that per venue. Ask the manager which limit applies and whether the limiter can be adjusted. My digital percussion runs through the DJ mixer and stays within the same sound budget, which helps most in strict venues.
Can you suggest a DJ from the Kortrijk area?
Yes. I often play with local DJs, including several Friends of Sam. You get a duo that already knows the local venues.
