Beatport will run two DJ contests giving an artist the chance to win an opening slot for a weekly show, airfare and accommodations at The Cosmopolitan.
Beatport, the world’s largest store for DJs, producers and their fans, is partnering with Marquee Dayclub at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip for Beatport Fridays, a 16-week residency running every Friday this summer through Sept. 4. The series marks Beatport’s first-ever weekly residency.
Beatport is bringing its curation and network to one of Las Vegas’ most iconic venues. The residency, which kicked off May 1 with Miss Monique, includes underground favorites and mainstay festival headliners. From melodic and progressive house to peak-time tech house, the series aims to match Marquee.
“This collaboration marks a significant evolution in our daytime programming,” says Jason Strauss, Co-CEO at Tao Group Hospitality. “At Marquee, we’re passionate about bringing world-class talent to Las Vegas audiences. By partnering with Beatport for this series, we leverage their unrivaled authority in dance music to highlight the best that the electronic scene has to offer.”
“Beatport is bringing the curation of our digital store directly to Las Vegas,” says Ed Hill, Chief Brand Officer at Beatport. “We’ve designed this lineup to showcase the full breadth of our community, with established favorites and the freshest talent currently climbing our charts.” The Beatport Fridays lineup:
