Beatport’s Mobile Stage “The Block” Lights Up Junction 2 Festival 2025

Debuting this summer at London's iconic Junction 2 Festival on July 25-27, Beatport has further transcended its digital roots with The Block – a high-impact mobile shipping-container stage and beacon for emerging DJs to showcase their talent at some of dance music's most coveted events.

After launching our first-ever Beatport Live x The Block DJ competition in early July, we sifted through over a thousand mix submissions and crowned 12 winners, each earning a 60-minute set and passes for themselves and their crew. Across the weekend, the crowd packed in for stellar, sun-soaked sessions from these breakthrough selectors – plus surprise appearances from Azzecca and Ma Sha, Love On The Rocks founder Paramida, and Ninja Tune favorites O'Flynn and Sofia Kourtesis.

Riding high on the success at Junction 2, Beatport is thrilled to launch a second competition inviting more DJs to take The Block stage at Rockstar Presents: Creamfields 2025, happening August 21-24, 2025. Learn more here.

Here’s a recap of the standout performances by our winners and secret guests at this year's Junction 2 Festival. Each set came alive in its own way, so press play and relive the magic below.
