DECAdance
One Night. Five Decades. Endless Memories.
You know that song. The one that hits before your brain catches up.
DECAdance builds an entire night around that moment.
Every hour, the room changes decades. Dress your era. Find your people.
Built for the culture. Open to everyone. This floor is yours.
Because under a mirrorball, everybody gets to be somebody, baby.
Because life's too short for small hair, small hooks, or small feelings.
Because keeping it real means no fronting, no sidelines, and everybody gets a verse.
Because the songs we burned to CD deserve a full-volume comeback.
Because every generation can be the main character on the same dance floor.
That's DECAdance.
The first DECAdance film drops after the first night.
Until then, move through the eras. Every panel is a taste of what happens when the room commits.
Five Steps. One Night. Every Memory.
The decade that raised you. Shaped you. Or the one you missed and always wanted.
Sequins, leather, denim, chrome, mesh. Whatever makes the memory visible on your body.
Every hour, the room changes. New sound. New energy. New version of the night.
One floor, every generation, one song landing on all of them at once.
Not just a great night. A song you'll hear next week and immediately be back in this room.
Who are you here?
DECAdance is one experience with five doors. Find yours.
Choose Your Era
Yours if the dance floor has always been church, runway, and release valve at once.
Born in Black, Latino, and queer spaces. Tonight's floor started there.
Don't read about it. Open it.
Five artifacts. Five decades. Tap one.
Preview the Night
Two eras are live. The Disco floor and the 90s floor. Press play before you show up.
More eras drop as the night gets closer.
The Night Journey
Every transition is intentional. The room shifts. The music shifts. The crowd feels it, and the next memory starts before the last one fades.

Partners
DECAdance is a public experience, but it's designed to work for the people who build rooms for a living. Venues, sponsors, promoters, and brands can enter this format without flattening what makes it special.
A format that fills your room and gives people a reason to come back.
You know your room. We bring a format that holds it for hours and resets on the hour.
Cross-generational pull
Disco to Today reaches guests your regular programming misses.
Built-in bar spend
Nostalgia crowds stay the full night. Each era transition resets the energy.
Repeatable by design
One test night becomes a monthly or quarterly residency.
Discovered, not delivered.
Composite data from DC-area residency and pop-up formats. Your venue modeled on request.

Created by DJ DJ
DECAdance was created by Derrick Johnson II, also known as DJ DJ, a Washington, DC and DMV-based DJ, creative director, and experience strategist with 25 years of building moments people don't forget.
As a DJ, he knows what it takes to move a room. As an experience architect, he knows how to build a format that travels. DECAdance is where both of those things became one room, and one idea that can scale to any city ready for it.
DJ DJ is the sound. Derrick is the structure. DECAdance is where both of them walk into the same room.
