Carnival Freedom offering teen DJ classes

Monday, 07 Oct, 2014 0

Playing around on the decks is nothing new on a cruise ship but Carnival Freedom is giving it a whole new meaning with shipboard DJ classes for teens.

The cruise line has teamed up with Miami DJ Irie for a DJ academy at sea called called Spin U for teens aged 15-17.

Part of Carnival’s Club O2 teen program, kids will be instructed in how to operate the latest mixing and sound equipment, mix songs of all genres, pump up a crowd, and even how to cultivate the right DJ ‘attitude.’

Introductory 30-minute sessions are free and a second 45-minute class covering more comprehensive skills in mixing and scratching costs $20.

A further advanced DJ Master program of three one-hour classes is $99.

DJ Master students will compete in a ‘battle of the beats’ and the winner gets the chance to entertain guests poolside on Lido Deck.

The cruise line said Carnival’s shipboard DJs will be available for one-on-one sessions with budding DJs.

Spin U is now being trialed on Fort Lauderdale-based Carnival Freedom with plans to roll out it on all ships in 2015.
