Who You're Seeing: DJ Franzen
Career Highlights
Key to the city of Las Vegas awarded May 2015; May 28 formally declared DJ Franzen Day by civic proclamation — a distinction shared by very few entertainers in the market. Top-rated afternoon DJ in Las Vegas radio history at Hot 97.5 FM; TWITCH.tv's top-ranked DJ. Source: teamwhynot.com/dj-franzen
Sound & Style
Hip-hop and R&B resident DJ shaped by three decades of Bay Area radio heritage — DJ Franzen's Hakkasan R&Bae Wednesdays sets draw from deep catalog knowledge spanning West Coast hip-hop, 1990s R&B, and current chart material, shaped by early career years at 106.1 KMEL and co-hosting Snoop Dogg's nationally syndicated radio show. His sets blend old school, hip-hop, R&B, and reggae with emotional range informed by Jay-Z, Tupac, Frank Sinatra, and Sade influences.
The Hakkasan Experience
DJ Franzen at Hakkasan: What to Expect
R&Bae Wednesdays have made Hakkasan Nightclub the Strip's defining midweek R&B destination through spring and summer 2026, and DJ Franzen's weekly Wednesday slot anchors that positioning with three decades of catalog depth that no other Las Vegas DJ working the R&B format can match. The night runs from 10:30 PM to 4 AM across Hakkasan's 80,000-square-foot five-level complex at MGM Grand, occupying both the upper-level main nightclub room and the dedicated 10,000+ square foot Ling Ling Lounge hip-hop floor on Level 3 — giving R&Bae a vertical range that most single-stage events cannot provide. Franzen's programming reads the specific characteristics of Hakkasan's main room: the multi-story LED installation and concert-grade sound system respond to R&B's mid-tempo rhythmic architecture differently than to high-BPM EDM arrangements, and his three-decade catalog knowledge — West Coast hip-hop from KMEL's 1990s prime, golden-era R&B that dominated radio through the early 2000s, the contemporary production that connects those reference points to current material — gives him the range to sustain five hours without repeating the structural patterns that plateau most resident DJ sets. Wednesday night at Hakkasan draws Las Vegas locals, hospitality workers, and entertainment industry professionals — a midweek crowd that tends to know music more deeply than the weekend tourism audience and can follow deeper catalog pulls without losing the floor. His radio background anchors this: fifteen years as the highest-rated afternoon DJ in Las Vegas history at Hot 97.5 FM and co-host of Snoop Dogg's nationally syndicated show across 35 markets gave him audience-reading skills built on actual ratings feedback, not nightclub guesswork. Guest list through NoCoverVegas provides complimentary entry on Wednesdays; ratio enforcement is more relaxed than weekend nights and bottle service minimums run $400–$500 below Friday–Saturday peak pricing, making R&Bae the most accessible Hakkasan night for mixed or male-heavy groups.

Arrival Tip
