Inside your dj studios
Club-standard equipment. Customisable lighting. Our DJ studios allow you to replicate the club experience solo or back-to-back with your friends, no matter what your skill level.
Premium and Pro DJ
Our two-deck DJ studios are approximately 65 square feet, and our three-deck DJ studios are approximately 130 square feet. Both can hold up to a maximum of five people (including the lead booker) per session.
Virtual club DJ
Broadcast directly into our Virtual Club on Sansar™, from our new VIRTUAL CLUB DJ test studio at PIRATE.COM Greenwich. This product is in beta.
PIRATE.COM’s brand new Virtual Club DJ Studio broadcasts you live into our virtual reality nightclub, built in the Sansar™ platform, where you can perform to friends, family and others joining you in the club. All you need to do is turn up to the studio and play - we’ll do the rest.
This first-of-its-kind studio has been fitted with state-of-the-art audiovisual live streaming technology. The audio is captured directly from the DJ mixer, synchronised with the video captured by our built-in HD camera and is streamed straight into the club. It’s plugged in and rolling 24/7 - as soon as you step inside the room you are live.
No extra set up or sign-in required and we provide a simple set of instructions for anyone who wants to join you in the club.

Local vibes
Looking for live music in Cardiff? Head to Womanby Street, one of the city's oldest streets, it's now synonymous with the city's live music scene. Artist-run The Moon and Fuel are two of our favourites, while Clwb Ifor Bach is also recommended for those who like to rock. Finally, TramShed is another quality music and arts venue — located in a Grade II-listed building that was once the old tram depot.
