Beyond the genre awards, categories include a group of industry-focused awards, with the Ibiza Icon award being given as, the awards state, “a tribute to the legendary figures who have shaped Ibiza’s music scene, leaving an indelible mark on the island’s rich club culture and in our hearts.” The Ibiza Track of The Summer award will go to the song that most powerfully soundtracked the summer of 2024 on the island, and a number of awards will acknowledge achievements in the industry and live music space outside of Europe. These awards will be be voted for by dance industry execs from the Association For Electronic Music (AFEM).

The ceremony is set for Oct. 2 at the island’s Club Chinois. Tickets for the event go on sale Sept. 13, the same day that public voting closes. 2024 marks the 23rd year for the DJ Awards, with the ceremony founded in 1998 by Ibiza residents José Pascual and Lenny Krarup.

The Awards are now under new ownership after being taken over earlier this year by Andy Grant, who recently told Mixmag that in 2024 “the most important outcome being to gain the respect of the global dance community as the new trusted guardians of this responsibility. Beyond that everything is on the table, and my vision is nothing short of positioning the DJ Awards alongside the Oscars and the Brit Awards in terms of scale, reach and recognition.”
