DJ EPK guide for 2026: what goes in a DJ press kit and where to host it

A DJ EPK is an electronic press kit: a page that brings together your bio, mixes, photos, booking contact and the details someone needs to consider you for a gig. You can send it to clubs, promoters, festivals or event clients as a single link, with a separate PDF available if they ask for one.

Heya is made by the team that wrote this guide, so read its row with that in mind. Prices come from each company's own pages, checked on November 9, 2026.

The short answer

How to build a DJ EPK page

  1. Gather your materialPut your bio, photos, mix links and booking details together before you start building. Add any press quotes or gig credits you can verify.
  2. Choose your builderCompare the publishing address, media options and price of the plan you'll use. Check whether a custom domain is included, supported or something you'll need to buy separately.
  3. Introduce your actPut your DJ name, a short description of what you play and your booking contact near the top. Make it clear what someone is enquiring about.
  4. Add music and photosUse a mix that represents the bookings you want, then add your photos and any relevant performance video. Label links plainly.
  5. Link supporting filesAdd buttons for downloadable press photos, a PDF one-sheet or a tech rider where relevant. If a file lives elsewhere, check that someone can open it without requesting access.
  6. Check and publishOpen the published page on your phone, play the media and test every contact link. Send the page link with your booking enquiry.

What goes in a DJ EPK

Start with your DJ name and a short bio. Say what you play, where you're based and what kind of booking you're putting yourself forward for. Don't make the reader dig through a long personal story before they reach your music.

Keep it specific.

Add photos that you're happy for a promoter to use, with a clearly labelled download link if the page images aren't the files you want published. Include photo credits where needed.

What belongs beside that? A representative mix, relevant performance video if you have it, selected gig credits and press quotes you can attribute. Leave out anything you can't back up.

Put your booking email somewhere easy to find, and name the booking contact if someone else handles enquiries (use their current details). Your social links can sit alongside it, but keep the booking route explicit.

Mixes, links and the tech rider

Choose the mix for the person you're sending the page to. If you're approaching a club, lead with a set that represents what you'd play there; if you're pitching event work, use material that reflects that work.

Label each mix with enough detail to tell the reader what they're opening, and if you include several, put the one you want them to hear first at the top rather than leaving them to choose.

Then test playback.

Use hosted tracks where your plan supports them, or embeds from a supported service. On Heya, music comes through Spotify or SoundCloud embeds, and video through YouTube or Vimeo. A PDF one-sheet or tech rider needs to live elsewhere, linked from a button.

Keep the rider separate from the bio. State your actual setup requirements and contact details, and don't list equipment needs you haven't checked. Can the recipient open the file without signing in? Check that too.

Keeping it current between gigs

After a gig, check whether anything on the page needs changing. Add a new credit if it belongs there, replace a mix when you have a better fit, and remove dates or details that are no longer current.

You don't need to rewrite everything.

Keep your booking contact current, including the name of anyone handling enquiries for you. If you're changing who receives those messages, test the contact link after editing it (not just the text beside it).

What about the files you've linked? Open the photo downloads and rider from the published page, check their access settings, and replace old versions wherever they're hosted.

And before you send the EPK to a different kind of client, read the introduction and listen to the mix you've put first. Keep the material that fits the booking you're asking for, without adding claims you can't support.

FAQ

What is a DJ EPK?

A DJ EPK is your electronic press kit: an online page or document you send to someone considering you for a booking. It brings your introduction, music, photos and contact details together. Think of it as the material you want a club, promoter, festival or event client to review, rather than your full archive.

What should a DJ press kit include?

Include your DJ name, a short bio, representative mixes, press photos and a clear booking contact. Add relevant gig credits, attributed press quotes and performance video if you have them. A tech rider can sit behind a separate link. You don't need to fill every category if you don't have material for it.

Should a DJ EPK be a PDF or a website?

Use a website as the main link if you want a page with playable media and content you can update. Keep a PDF one-sheet available if a recipient asks for one, and link your tech rider separately. On Heya, PDFs are hosted elsewhere and reached through a button; the page itself holds text, images, buttons and embeds.

Is there a free DJ EPK maker?

Yes. Beacons has a free-forever plan, Carrd has a free Basic plan, Heya has a free plan with no time limit, and Wix offers a Free plan. Check each plan's publishing address, branding and features before choosing. Bandzoogle instead offers a 14-day free trial, after which an upgrade is required to keep the site active.
