The three girls met in a dancing school in Eindhoven, where their dancing skills were discovered by a record producer who signed them up for their first single "Hide and Seek" under the Djumbo Project.

In 2009-2010 Djumbo hosted the pop and showbizz game show Kies je ster (Pick your star) for broadcast on TROS.

The format was a spinoff from the classic Ren je rot (1973-1983), itself being the Dutch version of Runaround.

In 2015, following Lotte Prijs's departure, Djumbo held a new round of auditions, selecting Danique van Rosmalen as their new member.
