Planning an event in Perth and wondering what a dance floor will set you back? Whether you’re organising a wedding, corporate function, or backyard party, understanding pricing helps you budget effectively and avoid surprises.
This guide breaks down what you can expect to pay for dance floor hire in Perth in 2026, what affects the price, and how to get the best value for your event.
What Does Dance Floor Hire Typically Cost in Perth?
Dance floor hire in Perth generally ranges from ~$750 to $8,500+ depending on the floor type, size, and duration of your event. Here’s a quick breakdown by floor type:
Classic Parquet (Timber-Look) Floors start from around ~$750 for a 2m x 2m area. These are the most affordable option and suit almost any event — from hotel ballrooms to garden marquees. The warm timber-look finish photographs well and works with both formal and casual settings.
Black & White Checkered Floors typically start from ~$1250 and are popular for corporate events, themed parties, and award nights. The high-gloss finish creates a striking visual impact.
LED Starlight Dance Floors start from around ~$1000 and create a magical atmosphere with twinkling LED lights embedded beneath the surface. These are the top choice for weddings and gala events where ambiance matters.
Outdoor Dance Floors start from approximately ~$750 and are specifically engineered for grass, gravel, and uneven surfaces. Perth’s garden wedding scene has driven strong demand for these.
Custom Branded Floors — pricing on application. Corporate clients often request custom wraps, logos, or colour matching for product launches and branded experiences.
What Affects the Price?
Several factors influence your final quote.
Floor size is the biggest variable. A small 3m x 3m floor for an intimate gathering of 30–40 guests costs significantly less than a 8m x 8m floor for a 200-person corporate gala. As a rule of thumb, allow 0.5 square metres per guest you expect to dance and roughly 30% of guests will dance at any given time.
Floor type matters — LED and premium finishes cost more than standard timber-look options, but they create a noticeably different atmosphere.
Delivery distance can affect pricing if your venue is outside the Perth metro area. Most suppliers include metro delivery in their base price, but regional venues (Margaret River, Busselton, etc.) may incur additional transport fees and accommodation.
Event duration — most quotes are based on a single-day hire, but multi-day events or festivals may attract different rates.
Setup complexity — outdoor installations on uneven surfaces or venues with limited access (stairs, narrow doorways) may require additional labour.
How to Get the Best Value
Bundle your hire. If you need both a dance floor and staging — as many weddings and corporate events do — hiring from a single supplier saves you coordination time and money. CorpraHire is one of the few Perth suppliers offering both, which means one delivery, one setup team, and one invoice instead of two.
Book early. Perth’s peak event season (October–March) fills up fast. Booking 4–8 weeks ahead gives you the best selection and avoids last-minute premium pricing.
Right-size your floor. Oversizing wastes money; undersizing cramps your guests. Use the size guide above or ask your supplier to recommend based on your guest count and venue layout.
Ask about package deals. Many suppliers offer reduced rates when you combine dance floor hire with other equipment like staging, lighting, or furniture.
