Discover the world of DJing at this fun Read & Rave session for children.

Meet DJ Mu-Mu, learn how turntables and vinyl records work, and enjoy music, dancing, reading and creative activities. Children can even have a go on the DJ decks, with bookable five-minute slots available.

Part of this year’s ‘Read to the Beat’ Summer Reading Challenge. The Read & Rave is open to everyone, but you’ll need to book at the library if you’d like a turn on the decks.
