About us

Empowering the next generation of DJs and music producers

We believe in providing FREE DJ and music production skills for everybody at our inclusive events.

Our mission

We’re here to make music accessible through DJing.

Most importantly, we aim to provide this for FREE.

Since the creation of weDJ in 2024 – when On The Rise DJ Academy and Westend DJ collaborated on London’s first DJ Expo in over a decade – we have held an OPEN DECKS session and All Women Ableton Workshop at RichMix in East London, DJ workshops in Central Northwest London for FREE. We’ve also taken over G-Shock radio to spread the weDJ vibe and give our community the opportunity to connect with their audience.

Hands-on with DJ & Music Production tech

Try the latest kit – ask the people who make it any questions you may have.

Gain knowledge from experts

Learn from our carefully selected panel members and tutors.

Come to have fun and get in the mix

Bring your music on USB drive or a bag of records, drop in and play.
