Music Workshops That Get Everyone Involved
Bring music technology to life with high-energy, hands-on workshops in DJing, music production, beatboxing and more.
From a single workshop or school enrichment day to festivals, community projects and large-scale events, our professional tutors bring the equipment, energy and industry experience to create something young people will remember.
We work with schools, councils, youth organisations, charities, festivals and community partners across the UK – and every experience can be shaped around your audience, venue and objectives.
Got an idea? Let’s make it happen.
Our Workshop Experience
Whether we’re working with a small group or delivering a large-scale event, our workshops are designed to get young people involved from the start.
From a single workshop to a full enrichment day, we'll shape the experience around your audience, timings and objectives.
Our DJs, producers, beatboxers and creative practitioners bring real-world skills, personality and energy into every session.
Professional equipment and everything needed to deliver the workshop comes with us – making it easy to bring music technology into your setting.
Young people don't just watch. They get hands-on, learn new skills, create something of their own and, where possible, have the opportunity to perform or showcase it.
Explore Our Workshops
Our workshops are designed to make music technology exciting and accessible for the young people you work with.
No previous experience is needed. We get complete beginners involved quickly, while adapting sessions for those who already have experience. Whether you're planning a school enrichment day, youth programme, community project or event, we'll shape the experience around your group.
Give your young people the chance to get behind professional DJ decks and experience what it's like to mix for themselves.
We make it easy for complete beginners to get involved and start mixing quickly, while our tutors can challenge more experienced DJs with creative transitions, effects, beatmatching and performance techniques.

We'll get beginners making beats and experimenting with drums, samples and sounds straight away, while those with more experience can explore recording, arrangement, sound design and production techniques.

NEW - Mobile Music Lab
New for 2026, our self-powered Mobile Music Lab takes the Noise Academy experience on the road – bringing professional DJing and music production directly to schools, communities and events.
With dedicated DJ and production spaces onboard, young people can step inside, get hands-on and start creating, with no existing equipment or facilities needed at your venue.
But it doesn’t stop inside the Lab. We can build the experience out into:
- DJ and music production workshops
- Walk-in and pop-up activities
- School and community programmes
- Festivals and public events
- Holiday activities
- Street performances
- Live DJ sets and showcases
- Larger outdoor music experiences
The Lab can even form part of a programme where young people learn and create during the project before showcasing their skills through a live performance.
From a small group session to a large public activation, the Mobile Music Lab gives us the flexibility to bring music technology almost anywhere.
