Salisbury DJ Academy

Salisbury DJ Academy is a not for profit community organisation based in Salisbury, Wiltshire. Our experienced tutors (who each have over 30 years of experience in the industry) offer private, one to one DJ and music tuition to people of all ages.

We also supply experienced, professional DJ's and mobile disco hire for all types of event (including bars, clubs, restaurants, hotels, birthday parties, weddings, open air events, festivals and corporate parties). No event is too big or small. We cover a wide area including Wiltshire, Hampshire, Dorset and further afield.

We specialise in dance music events, however our team of expeerienced DJs cover a much wider range of music genres so we can cater for everyone's music tastes. Whether it's a family party, wedding, background music in a restaurant or full on outdoor festival, we can cover it all.

We have a huge range of top spec DJ, sound and lighting equipment with sound and lighting tech available for hire locally, so if you're looking to hire equipment only for your event, we can also help with this.

All of our DJ's are fully insured and covered under our £10M PLI policy. Our electrical equipment is regularly PAT tested to ensure its safety and compliance with Health and Safety recommendations.

Darren, the founder of Salisbury DJ Academy has over 30 years experience working as a DJ. Starting out in the early 1990's at the age of 18 he quickly established himself as a regular fixture in the bar and club scene in and around Salisbury. In the early 2000's Darren signed for West Midlands based DJ Agency RME which led to weekly DJ residencies and regular guest spots in bars across the south. He now offers his DJ, events and mobile disco services to private and corporate clients as well as putting his wealth of experience to good use training the next generation of DJ's through Salisbury DJ Academy.
