Jay-J has toured the world, performing at La Terraza (Spain), Pacha (Ibiza), Zouk (Singapore) and Ministry of Sound (United Kingdom). Last year, Jay-J performed live at the 2006 MTV Australia Video Music Awards, on both the Red Carpet and during the Awards Show.

In 2008, Jay-J was selected as one of 8 musical artists (which included Tiesto, Benny Benassi, Kaskade, Jes, Serge Devant, Lucas Prata & Cezar) for Coca Cola's WE8 project for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. Each musical artist was provided with a theme and using music as their form of expression, created a song that expanded on their inspiration drawn from the theme.
