Musician / DJ Invoice Template
Gig invoices are as much about the booking terms as the money: the deposit that locks the date, the balance due on the night, and what happens if the event moves. Putting these on the invoice avoids awkward conversations at load out.

Common questions
How much deposit should I ask for?
50 percent to confirm the date is standard for private events. Corporate clients often prefer full invoicing on net terms instead.
What about overtime at events?
Agree an overtime rate in advance and mention it in the notes. Adding surprise charges after the event is how you lose referrals.
