If you’re a DJ who plays funk, disco, R&B, and party tunes, Funkademia’s DJ competition might be the perfect opportunity for you. Since the club night will be taking over three rooms, they’re looking for a new DJ to fill one of those rooms with tunes. 

To enter the competition, head to Funkademia’s Instagram, follow them, tag yourself in the comments of the competition post, and send them a DM with a link to your mix. 

The winner of the competition will be chosen by the 30th of September with the winner’s DJ set happening in October. If you win, you will be paid for your set and will also be sorted with free drinks and guest list for your mates. 

Head over to Funkademia’s Instagram to enter. Good luck!
