Wakestock are looking for brand new DJ talent to open this year’s festival.

As well as bringing top name bands to North Wales each summer, we also play host to some of the UK’s leading DJ talent. We have already announced Calvin Harris, Annie Mac, Zane Lowe, DJ Fresh, Flux Pavilion, High Contrast, Jakwob, Doctor P, Disclosure and Burns will all be performing at this year’s festival.

Now we are offering you the chance to play alongside them opening the South Stage on Friday 6th July. Judging the competition this year alongside the Wakestock bookers, we have DJ, presenter and long time friend of the festival Goldierocks who will be picking her favourite mix from the 5 finalists selected by the Wakestock bookers. So what are you waiting for?

To enter you need to post your mix on Mixcloud and get promoting it because you’ll need at least 100 listens to qualify for the competition, so don’t sit back and wait for the judges to get in touch, get busy tweeting, blogging, facebooking and pushing it as hard as you can! The winner will receive their full tickets including camping for the weekend, plus a ticket for one of their mates. The closing date for entries is May 1st and the winner will be announced that month.
