Set in the heart of Ibiza’s Marina, Chinois’ opulent ambience, dynamic 360º degree screens and cutting edge sound system make it the perfect venue for the DJ Awards ceremony and afterparty. On a high in their third year with some of the most exciting residencies of the summer, this will be another unmissable party under the disco ball.
Doors open at 10.30pm with awards ceremony taking place 11.30 to 12.30. BBC Radio 1 tastemaker Jaguar returns to present the awards alongside respected electronic music personality Katie Knight, a regular face in Ibiza, who will also be interviewing artists backstage after the ceremony while the afterparty kicks off in the club at 12.30am.
Sets come from the legendary Luciano who will be presented on the night with his Ibiza Icon Industry Award and is sure to serve up a magical set of stripped-back minimal with signature Latin flair. Also playing will be artists nominated in the categories that have been voted for by the public. They include Cristoph (HUB IBiza Studios Tech House), Mathew Jonson (Live Act), Ben Sterling (The RIOT Noise Breakthrough Artist) and Ibiza mainstay Manu Gonzalez.
Other categories include International DJ Of The Year 2024, House, Drum & Bass, Techno, Progressive House, Organic House, Afro and Trance, all of which have been chosen by a public vote. Interspersed with voted categories, the winners of some special Industry Awards will be presented with their trophies having been selected by a specially assembled team of industry professionals.
Founded in 1998 by José Pascual and Lenny Krarup, the DJ Awards have long been recognised as the ‘Oscars for electronic dance music’. Now under new ownership and with fresh investment after a four year hiatus, the awards make a welcome return and continue to champion excellence in global dance music.
The DJ Awards 2024 is an unmissable event that recognises the achievements of a wealth of underground musical talent from the last 12 months and is the start of an exciting new chapter in the long-running story of these iconic awards.
