February: Celebrating SWANA sounds!
Queer Open Decks is a free support and networking event for any LGBTQ+ DJs working within London/Online or those looking to learn basic DJ skills.
Started as a small meet up at the London LGBTQ+ Centre in 2022, we are now a growing community of genre-fluid LGBTQ+ DJs meeting monthly.
For this month, we'll be celebrating music from across the Southwest Asia & North Africa (SWANA) region! Everyone’s welcome to play - just bring curiosity, care and respect for the cultures behind the sounds.
Equipment details: We are able to accommodate both Vinyl, CDJs & Digital DJS (using either USB or laptops - with or without controllers).
Sign up details: During the night, we have 1x 30 minute slots from 6.30-7.00pm & 3 x 20 min slots that you can sign up in advance via our link in bio, followed by 5 x 30 minute slots from 8.00-10.30pm that you can sign up for on the night.
