She’s back, and she means business – Honey Dijon presents ‘Honey F#cking Dijon’ at Chinois Ibiza. The globally adored icon returns to Chinois, Thursdays June 5th to July 24th for 8 dates, double that of her last year Chinois residency, so double the chance to see the legendary Chicago-born DJ and her supreme selection of the world’s best guest DJs.
Where else but Chinois for Honey’s instinctive style mixing golden era disco, techno and her own house blend of New York/Chicago sounds, with a warm welcome for worldwide visitors and world music? After all, Chinois is ‘the club of Ibiza’, embracing the unique energy and spirit of the island to create a diverse yet inclusive community. Chinois’ cutting-edge sound system, immersive sensual visuals, and a dancefloor-first experience ensure resident and guest DJs of the calibre of Honey (F#cking!) Dijon.
“I’m excited to be back at Chinois this summer — we’re bringing the heat straight to the dancefloor,” Honey says. ‘Nothing beats the raw, unfiltered energy of the club—the lights, the bass, that connection between me and the crowd. It’s where music breathes, where it lives. Chinois has that energy, that vibe. I’ve got some of my favourite artists joining me on Thursdays throughout June and July, and I’m really looking forward to it. Can’t wait to see everyone there.”
Apart from igniting Chinois dancefloors, recently Honey has increased her already global status in music and fashion, inc. walking in WILLY CHAVARRIA’s show at Paris Fashion Week; her contribution to the DJ Kicks compilation series (October); her latest release C*NTY with Kevin Aviance; and press support inc. Vogue, L’Officiel, GQ, New York Times, Notion, Guardian… All
since emerging from the underground to produce with Beyonce, collab with Jamie XX et al, play the biggest venues, and create runway soundtracks for Vuitton and Dior.

UNCLE WAFFLES, Swazi-born, South Africa-based DJ & ‘Princess of Amapiano’ (Billboard), her 2022 debut single went 7x platinum in SA and was then sampled by Beyonce – together with a viral clip of her dancing while DJing, her swift rise to global star was assured.
