DJ Mike & his team has been part of all our school event for more than 5 years now. Our events are incomplete without the great music & fun games Mike brings along with him. Very easy to work with, awesome library of music, amazing options in packages, organized, punctual & wonderful with guests of all ages. Highly recommend!!!
Mike Festa, owner of Critical Entertainment, was also our D.J. Mike was a complete professional throughout the entire process. He was easy to work with, knowledgeable, responsive, fairly priced and current with the trends. He and his crew exceeded our expectations. The dance floor was packed! He was present but not obtrusive, and skilled at getting the crowd out there and having a blast! If you choose Mike, and Critical Entertainment, you will be beyond satisfied.
Critical Entertainment is absolutely outstanding! Mike was very responsive and provided us with the best team for my company’s holiday party. From the photobooth to the DJ, everything was a blast! DJ Danny kept the energy high spinning hits after hits that had everyone on their feet. His talent for engaging the crowd made the night unforgettable—fun, lively, and full of excitement. I highly recommend him and his team!
Critical Entertainment played for our Corporate Holiday Party in Stamford this week. The music and energy were great! They played all our requests and kept the party going. Recommend!
My husband and I just had our wedding on 11/15 and we were more than pleased with Mike and Critical Entertainment!! He was so attentive to us, communicated clearly, and was very receptive to our requests. Everyone that we’ve had the chance to talk to have all said that they had the best time. Thank you Mike for your attentiveness and for guiding us through the structure of the night! We were so grateful for you!
DJ Ivan is our man! 3rd year in a row at our halloween party! gets everyone dancing
DJ Danny made our 10/12/2025 wedding a blast! Every guest had amazing things to say about the music and the overall vibes thanks to him. He is professional, organized, personable, energetic, and such a natural as far as changing songs, wedding party introductions, and planning even leading up to the event. Mike, with whom we spoke in the planning stages, was also incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and helpful in guiding us to curate the right music and have the most seamless experience.
We couldn’t be happier with Critical Entertainment! From start to finish, Mike made the entire process incredibly easy and stress-free. He took the time to understand what we wanted, offered helpful suggestions, and kept everything organized in a nice online portal. Our DJ, Ivan, was absolutely fantastic — he read the crowd perfectly and played a great mix of songs that everyone loved. The transitions were seamless, the energy was amazing, and everything ran so smoothly. We received so many compliments from guests about how much fun they had! We highly recommend Critical Entertainment. They helped to make our wedding an incredible celebration that we’ll never forget!
Hired Critical Entertainment for my wedding. Mike was wonderful, not only was the music was wonderful, I never danced so much in my life, But he was so attentive, communication with me and staff of the venue made the wedding come together with absolute no issues. Everyone had a blast. Truly an amazing time.
This was the best DJ ever! Everything was perfect and went smoothly! Thank you so much! I would recommend to anyone!
