Tomorrowland is igniting the dreams of budding DJs worldwide with its latest competition, offering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to perform at their renowned festival this July
Tomorrowland Academy invites DJs to showcase their unique sound. To enter, hopefuls must submit a mixtape, 30 to 45 minutes in length, that captures their individual style and flair. The mix should include not only mainstream tracks, but also undiscovered “hidden gems,” showcasing the DJ’s ability to surprise and delight the audience. Also, the festival emphasizes the importance of clean transitions and engaging arrangements to maintain a dynamic and compelling listening experience.

In addition to their mixtape, contestants are asked to create a motivational video. This personal touch should highlight their background, aspirations and what drives their passion for music, giving a face and story to the sound.
Entries must be submitted via the Online Tomorrowland DJ & Producing Academy platform. Interested artists should activate their memberships and file their submissions by the 15th of June to be considered.
Previous competitions have spotlighted exceptional talent like The Yard Woman, a genre-defying artist from London with Greek roots, who graced the House of Fortune Stage.
