DJ Awards Ibiza · 26th Anniversary
The definitive passport to the music industry's inner circle. Join a curated Founder Circle for a 3-day, all-inclusive residency at the five-star Nobu Ibiza Bay — front-row VIP seats at the 26th Anniversary DJ Awards Gala at Amnesia, the Met Gala of dance music, plus premier tables at Pacha and Hï.
Powered by frictionless wearable tech and private chauffeurs, every detail is curated. Just land in Ibiza and turn your phone to Do Not Disturb.
This isn't a ticket — it's an introduction. Across one unforgettable week you'll trade stories with founders, artists and tastemakers who shape the culture, dine where money can't buy a table, and step behind the velvet rope as one of the chosen few. Come as a guest; leave as part of the circle.

Founded in 1998, the DJ Awards is the original and most respected honour in global dance music — uniquely celebrated for prioritising artistic excellence over popularity contests.
For Backstage guests, this is a rare opportunity to enter the inner sanctum of an industry-led institution where icons such as Carl Cox and Pete Tong have historically gathered. Unlike gamed or commercialised rankings, this is an award that cannot be bought — where the world's greatest artists show up in person to celebrate the true heartbeat of the dancefloor.
As a Backstage guest, you are seated among industry titans and global legends for an immersive, cinematic production that celebrates the pioneers defining the sound of a generation.
Your evening begins on the Red Carpet, surrounded by global press and flashbulbs as the world's most famous DJs arrive.
Mingle with the jet set and rub shoulders with the legends in the island's most iconic venue space.
Join 500 hand-selected guests at premium round tables of ten — the inner circle of electronic music under one roof.
A luxury sit-down dining experience with curated menus and a full premium open bar throughout the ceremony.

At midnight the gala transitions into a legendary celebration — private balcony suites for Ibiza Classics sets until 6 AM.

Three more ways into the inner circle — from the Miami Art Basel takeover to the Orient Express and the DJ Awards 2027 Launch Party. Each sold online now.
Bypass the art-world noise and step into the inner sanctum. Five nights of oceanfront opulence at the iconic Faena Hotel South Beach — a private champagne preview among the monumental Faena Art sand installations, a hosted VIP table at Factory Town, and the invite-only DJ Awards USA Global Launch & Fundraiser with Gospel NYC. Add expert-led private gallery tours, fine dining at Zuma Downtown and premium tables at Club Space — Miami Art Week, entirely stripped of friction.
The ultimate elite pilgrimage fusing music heritage and five-star luxury travel.

An elite Siena vineyard stopover, Michelin-starred dining wrapped in live jazz and string quartets, deluxe en-suite rail cabins and five-star suites in Rome and Venice.
An exclusive two-night residency at the five-star Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay, Friday 30 July to Sunday 1 August, built around the official DJ Awards season launch. Two coveted guest-list placements join an elite circle of 250 industry leaders, world-famous DJs and 2026 nominees for a sunset champagne reception aboard Coral Ocean — a $300m, 270ft mega-yacht — with a live set from DJ Awards Grand Jury Chairman Miss Monique. As the sun dips below Ibiza’s Old Town you transition seamlessly to Amnesia for Glitterbox, with full VIP access and premium bottle service at your dedicated table (all included). Recharge the next day by the Nobu pool, then a light, refreshing open-air dinner at Zuma with breathtaking views of the Old Town, before your driver whisks you to UNVRS for a VIP table, guest-list access and bottle service at the legendary El Row.
