Tomorrowland is once again opening the door to dreamers. The world-renowned festival’s educational platform, Tomorrowland Academy, has officially launched its DJ Competition, giving rising artists across the globe the rare chance to perform at Tomorrowland Brasil 2025 — one of the most iconic stages in electronic music.

The winner will earn a spot at The Gathering, the official open-air opening party at DreamVille, on Thursday, October 9. This isn’t just any warm-up set — it’s a chance to play alongside global headliners in front of thousands of passionate fans under the Brazilian sky.

Submit Your Mixtape, Join the Legacy

Artists have until September 19, 2025 to submit a 30–45 minute mixtape that reflects their signature sound, creativity, and technical skills. Alongside the mix, participants must upload a short motivational video sharing who they are, what drives them, and why this opportunity matters.

Here’s what Tomorrowland is looking for:

Track selection that goes beyond the obvious — dig for hidden gems
Creative, clean transitions and energetic progression
A vibe that reflects your personal artistry and emotion
Confidence, ambition, and a clear vision in your video submission

Submissions are open now via the official website!

Launched as an inclusive, skill-building initiative by Tomorrowland, the Tomorrowland Academy serves as both an online and in-person educational hub for new and emerging talent. Whether you’re just starting out or deep in your music career, the platform offers tools to grow — including:

DJ & Production Courses for all levels (e.g. How to Make Techno, Beginner DJ, Ableton)
Soft Skills Training on networking, branding, and music industry navigation
Masterclasses with elite artists like James Hype, AFROJACK, and Agents Of Time
Remix Contests & DJ Battles to put your skills to the test
Livestreamed feedback sessions with A&Rs and bookers from Tomorrowland Music

Real Artists. Real Impact.

This isn’t a gimmick. The Tomorrowland Academy has already helped launch breakthrough careers. Earlier this year:

AYDEN LOYDE played the Reflection of Love stage at Tomorrowland Winter 2025
David Herrlich won a DJ comp and delivered a standout performance at Tomorrowland Belgium’s House of Fortune

The opportunity is real. The platform is legit. And the stage? Legendary.
