The international music competition Red Bull Turn It Up will be held in Georgia for the first time on November 14 at the SAMA club. In this tournament, DJs will have to not only show their technical skill but also demonstrate a creative approach, quick reactions, and the ability to connect with the audience.
Four pre-selected DJs will take part in the first Georgian competition: Tropic Ananana, Halal Gvantsal, noki, and NAKASHA. Their task will be to creatively respond to thematic musical challenges and win the votes of the audience.
How the Competition Works
The tournament consists of three rounds. In each round, the DJs will take turns playing B2B (back-to-back) sets for several minutes on pre-determined themes. The winner will be decided by the audience: listeners will judge the participants on creativity, energy, and music selection, voting for their favorite by raising red or blue light-up wristbands.
The winners from each pair will meet in the final round. In addition to the thematic challenges, the finalists will face a freestyle round where they can showcase their musical taste and improvisation skills.
There will be only one winner. They will represent Georgia at the international final, which is scheduled for February 2027 in Dublin.
After the competition, the musician Kordz will continue the evening. The doors of the SAMA club will open at 8:00 p.m. Tickets can be purchased on the Tkt.ge website.
