How can I become a DJ at Electric Forest in Rothbury, Michigan?

Electric Forest is offering aspiring DJs and producers an opportunity to join their 2025 lineup through a competition.

The Discovery Project aims to spotlight emerging talent in the electronic music scene, which is the spirit of Forest to start. So if you think your name deserves to be up there with Louis The Child, Justice and Tiesto, this is your chance to prove it.

Winners of this competition will not only perform at Electric Forest 2025, but will also receive an artist pass, a guest pass, a one-night hotel stay, and a course at ICON Collective which is a premier Los Angeles-based music production school.

Electric Forest is renowned for its unique blend of electronic music, jam bands, and immersive art installations set amidst the natural beauty of Michigan’s forests. It’s more than just a music festival; it’s a community experience that celebrates creativity and self-expression.
