Dj awards reveal 2024 winners following unforgettable ceremony and afterparty
The fantastic first edition of the newly revived DJ Awards was a hugely successful night of music and celebration at Chinois, Ibiza, on October 2nd. Winners were announced in several key categories and special Industry Awards were handed out to legends of the scene by venerable hosts BBC 1 tastemaker Jaguar and Katie Knight. The magical evening marked a welcome return for the DJ Awards which is now very much back as ‘The Oscars of dance music’ once again.
This year was the first time in four years that the DJ Awards honoured its well deserving winners, with music lovers, industry insiders, and members of the public all in attendance at the star-studded event. The mood was high on fun after an epic Ibiza summer and the awards came thick and fast with plenty of great acceptance speeches.
