    Well, go and check if the hanging monitors have a powercord going into them. If so, they are powered and no amp is needed. If not, ask them how in heavens sake they do parties there.

    Then ask your friend who booked the room what the conditions were when he booked it. If he booked it without a PA or amp, he's at fault and he should make up for that. Very straight forward.

    If it turns out that he didn't book the room including PA, you should go to a near rental shop and ask for a mobile DJ setup.
    That includes speakers on a stick, subwoofer, amplification (built-in or external), DJ mixer but no CDJ's. But that's an expensive joke. That also means you won't have any monitors.

    I have no idea of the dimensions of the said room, but if it's small, lets say 100 ppl, you can also get some good quality full-range powered speakers.
    At my venue we usually use Meyer Sound CQ-1's for DJ monitors but they can also be used to make about 100 people deaf in a small-ish room. But they are some beefy speakers.

    Getting an amp only without knowing how the speakers in that room are wired might damage them. That's gonna be a nasty amount of cash you're gonna have to pay.

    Anyways I have seen a rental shop online near me. Will any amp do the job pretty much ?

    the ones I have seen have nl4fc outputs. However the speakON wires he has at the venue are nl2fc? are they universal all the speakON outputs on amps ?

    Thanks
    NL2 type cord ends will fit in NL2type outputs and NL4 type outputs. NL4 type cord ends won't fit into NL2 type outputs. You should be fine. How many cord ends do you have and how many speakers?

    Thanks for the help everybody!

    It is good to know the NL2s Fit into NL4s -

    There are 2 NL2 cord ends for 4 speakers. Tbh though I think im just gonna try find somebody else to DJ who are experienced with mobile DJ setup. It seems too much hassle.

    I don't have a clue what wattage their speakers are so I would not be able to rent an amp ?

    You could, but you could also blow up all four speakers, something that isn't very favorable..
