The countdown to Tomorrowland Belgium 2025 is officially underway — and this year, the stage might have your name on it.
If you’ve ever dreamed of sending a crowd into a euphoric frenzy under the iconic lights of Tomorrowland, the moment to turn that dream into reality is here. Tomorrowland Academy has launched its most exciting opportunity yet: the Tomorrowland Academy DJ Competition, giving aspiring DJs from around the globe a chance to perform live at Tomorrowland 2025.
This isn’t just another contest. This is your gateway to the global stage — a chance to share your unique sound with thousands of passionate fans and to join a lineup alongside the biggest names in electronic music.
🎧 Submit Your Mix. Share Your Passion. Play Tomorrowland.
From now until June 15, 2025, aspiring DJs can submit their 30–45 minute mixtape and a short motivational video at academy.tomorrowland.com for a chance to win the set of a lifetime.
Whether you’re spinning deep house, techno, trance, Afro beats, or melodic techno — the key is to be yourself. The jury wants to hear you — your vibe, your story, your journey through sound.
✔️ Pro tips for your mixtape:
- Dig deep: Avoid obvious chart-toppers. Show your personality with rare, exciting track selections.
- Make it flow: Keep transitions smooth but energetic. Long blends are fine — just keep them engaging.
- Tell a story: Think of your mix as a journey. Take listeners somewhere they’ve never been.
- Own your voice: This isn’t about sounding like someone else. Let your passion guide your sound.
Don’t forget: Alongside your mix, include a short video introducing yourself, your inspirations, and your dream of performing at Tomorrowland. Authenticity speaks louder than polish.
