Ever dreamed of being Avicii or David Guetta? Well now’s your chance as CHIC Punta Cana by Royalton Luxury Resorts has announced a new partnership with The DJ Dispensary for two three-day DJ Retreats this September.   Where better to learn how to mix, loop, pulse and scratch than the adults-only All in Luxury CHIC Punta Cana, where Vegas’s inimitable sass and style meets Miami’s urban vibe on the beach in the Dominican Republic.

As the only global business specializing in international DJ retreats, a maximum of 10 participants will take part in a three-day master class led by expert DJs who boast appearances at leading venues across the world, from London’s Ministry of Sound to Ibiza’s legendary Café Mambo.  Open to DJs of all levels, including novices, two daily hands-on master class sessions will feature theory and practical skills with lessons that teach techniques like beat matching, equalizing sound and cueing, with private tutor time for participants to individually excel. Once the art of entertaining is perfected by all, retreat participants will play a live set for the party-ready crowd at CHIC.

“DJ sets and live music performances are central to the overall guest experience here at CHIC,” said Hotel Manager Jonathan Iriarte. “We just hosted our first ever international electronic music event, and welcomed the acclaimed DJ Sandra Collins who joined a roster of respected local artists at our Full Moon Party earlier this month. Now it’s time to turn the tables and let our guests in on the action.”

“For us, the setting for our DJ retreats is as important as the DJ course itself,” said Matty Wainwright, owner and founder of The DJ Dispensary. “The vibe, cool atmosphere and luxury amenities at CHIC will set the stage for an incredibly exciting and inspiring experience for us all. We can’t wait to get the party started.”

This summer CHIC is also offering a range of themed evenings including pool parties with live sets from the central island DJ stand, and beach BBQs that include Cirque-style circus acts and performances from the in-house dancers, the CHIC Angels.

Outside of workshops, guests can unwind on the resort’s white sand beach or lounge at pools, where private cabanas are available. They can also indulge in a rejuvenating massage or facial in the lavish spa with hydrotherapy circuit.  The resort offers all-included gourmet dining at five à la carte restaurants, an Oxygen Bar and a “Culinary Experience” chef’s table.

Along with beautifully-appointed suites with the designer DreamBed, 24-hour concierge services, complimentary Wi-Fi, rain shower heads and in-room liquor dispensers, guests could opt to stay in the opulent CHIC Mansion. The stunning 10,500 square foot private home offers six guestrooms, seven bathrooms, a private pool and Jacuzzi, fully-stocked premium bar and lounge, full kitchen, dining room, wine cellar and pool table and services of a private chef and butler.

The three-day DJ Dispensary workshops will run September 24-26 and September 27-29. Per person prices from $1,400 include:
