Pioneering Nepali DJ Tenzing to summit Everest

Tenzing Sherpa, one of Nepal’s pioneering DJs, has announced the ‘Everest Expedition 2024’ with the slogan ‘Stop Global Warming, Save the Himalayas’. DJ Tenzing aims to conquer the world’s highest peak, Sagarmatha (Mt Everest), within a month.

The expedition’s purpose extends beyond personal achievement; it also seeks to promote tourism and raise awareness about the impact of climate change, says DJ Tenzing. 

Hit Bahadur Tamang, Minister of Culture, Tourism, and Civil Aviation, commended DJ Tenzing for his efforts to raise public awareness through this expedition. Minister Tamang presented DJ Tenzing with the national flag of Nepal, expressing government support for his endeavor. “I am pleased that the government has pledged to offer any necessary assistance during my expedition,” DJ Tenzing said.

Hailing from Solukhumbu, DJ Tenzing has been organizing musical programs in the Solukhumbu region for the past 12 years, particularly on International Everest Day, commemorating the historic ascent of Mt Everest on 29 May 1953.
