This is what a DJ Camp for teens looks like!
A Summer Camp for DJing & Music Production
Camp Spin Off is where DJ’s go to play! If you’re an aspiring DJ between the ages of 13 and 17, this is where you can turn your curiosities and dreams of learning how to DJ or beat making into reality during an action packed week at summer camp!
We are the only specialized overnight summer camp focused on building a positive outdoor learning environment where you can live, eat and breathe DJ culture with people that share the same passion and interest.
For six-days and five-nights, we bring together the world’s best DJs, instructors, speakers, performers and counselors. Our unique program of events and activities keep everyone involved and with each camper leaving with new skills, new friends and an unforgettable experience.
What is Camp Spin Off?
Camp Spin Off is a 501(c) non-profit organization that strives to bring together teenagers from around the world with one common passion: music. The only overnight summer camp of its kind, Camp Spin Off uses DJing and Music Production as a means to inspire creativity. Our mission is to provide teens with a life-changing outdoor camp experience through music.
We foster a unique summer camp community where music lovers, aspiring DJs and budding music producers are able to hear, create and experience music differently through sound challenges, technical and theory based DJ classes, music production and business classes. When campers aren’t in the lab formulating DJ sets or transforming random sounds into a beat, you can find them on the zip-lines, learning how to salsa dance, playing water volleyball, tie-dying shirts or finding their zen in a morning meditation session.
What’s new for the 2018 season?
Camp Spin Off is growing…by one day! Starting in 2018, Camp Spin Off is pleased to extend the length of camp by adding an additional day! Now, campers will enjoy 6-days and 5-nights at the only overnight camp dedicated to DJing and Music Production for teens! REGISTER NOW!
Getting to camp is about to be easier than ever! With so many campers coming from all over of the world, Camp Spin Off now offers a complimentary shuttle with two pick-up locations: Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and from Scratch DJ Academy, Los Angeles.
Life after Camp Spin Off
“When I found out about Camp Spin Off I was immediately intrigued since I had never even touched a turntable before. All I knew was that I had a passion for music and DJ culture. Attending camp helped me begin to realize what career path I wanted to take. I loved music, but when introduced to the business aspect of the music industry, I knew I found something. After attending camp for 2 years I began volunteering for Camp Spin Off, spending most of my time contributing to the Camp Spin Off social media. With that volunteer experience, I was able to network and acquire a summer internship at a music artist management company in Los Angeles, and I am now working towards a career in Digital Marketing. It’s amazing to think that one class over a couple of summers really shaped me into the person I am today. I am forever grateful for Camp Spin Off!”

What parents are saying…
“My son was barely 13 years old when we first learned about Camp Spin Off, so I was nervous about sending him to an overnight camp in California since we live in Arizona. I spoke with the staff about my concerns and they put my mind at ease. We registered him. When I arrived to drop my son off, all of my worries went away. To see the operation of things, I felt comfortable and excited for him. My son came back from his first year with a new found energy and excitement. He found his “people” and potential. Each year he comes home with so much inspiration. Not just for music, but overall. I can’t believe this will be his fourth year at Camp Spin Off! We are excited for the Junior Counselor program when he can no longer be a camper. This camp has really changed his life!”

Throughout the year Camp Spin Off works to raise funds to award scholarships for nearly half of the campers that attend. With the help of individuals, small businesses and corporate donors, the Annual Scholarship Fund was created to meet the goal of providing access to DJ and music production instruction for youth with limited financial means. The Annual Scholarship Fund receives scholarship applications throughout the year, awarding scholarships to youth with compelling stories and a strong need for financial assistance.
