L-Acoustics Invests in Djaayz by Cathy Guetta to Turn Music into a Competitive Advantage for Hospitality Venues

MARCOUSSIS, France – September 2026 – L-Acoustics, the global reference in premium sound experiences and immersive creative tools including L-Acoustics DJ, today announced a strategic investment in Djaayz, the platform reinventing how venues discover and book DJs, alongside a commercial partnership between the two companies. With more than 14,000 DJs available and over 100 venues already on board, Djaayz brings real scale to the alliance, one that will help hospitality venues turn music from a background service into a genuine business driver.

In a highly competitive hospitality market, sound and music have become strategic differentiators. The collaboration helps venues create memorable guest experiences that strengthen brand identity and increase customer loyalty.

Djaayz helps venues source and program high-quality DJs, while L-Acoustics provides premium sound infrastructure for venues and spatial audio creative tools for DJs, including L-Acoustics DJ. Together, they help hospitality venues transform music from a background service into a business driver that attracts customers and increases engagement.

“At L-Acoustics, we see sound as emotion,” says Hervé Guillaume, CEO L-Acoustics Group. “Investing in Djaayz extends that commitment all the way to the artistic programming of the venues our technology brings to life—a natural alliance in service of unforgettable guest experiences.”

The partnership spans the entire value chain: DJ discovery and booking through Djaayz, combined with world-class audio experiences powered by L-Acoustics. This creates a seamless solution for hotels, restaurants, beach clubs, rooftop bars and lifestyle venues.

“I’ve spent my life creating nights people never forget, and it always begins with the music,” explains Cathy Guetta, Co-Founder of Djaayz. “With Djaayz and L-Acoustics, we’re giving every venue the power to create that same magic—the right artist, the perfect sound, an emotion guests carry home with them.”

The partnership also raises the standards of live music experiences across the hospitality sector. Djaayz gives DJs access to more bookings and professional opportunities, while L-Acoustics ensures their performances are heard with exceptional sonic quality and Spatial Audio experiences.

“L-Acoustics brings the sound of world-class electronic music festivals and clubs to hospitality venues,” expressed Laurent Vaissié, CEO L-Acoustics. “Our partnership with Djaayz offers the perfect platform for premium venues and DJs to connect seamlessly and scale their business through exceptional sound experiences, from stereo to fully immersive.”

For L-Acoustics, the partnership provides direct access to a large network of hotels, restaurants, bars and event venues already using Djaayz. It creates a scalable channel to introduce premium sound solutions and creative Spatial Audio tools such as L-Acoustics DJ into hospitality environments where experience quality is increasingly important.

“L-Acoustics investing in Djaayz is far more than capital: it is the meeting of two houses obsessed with excellence. Together, we want to make world-class sound and curated programming the new standard for the venues that matter,” concludes Raphaël Aflalo, CEO & Co-Founder of Djaayz.
