Two days ago, the DJ Awards ceremony took place in Ibiza, bringing together artists, global industry leaders, and music lovers from around the world.
The 24th edition of the awards was held at ROTO Club in Ibiza Town, celebrating talent across 16 publicly voted categories and presenting 10 Grand Jury Awards.
The International DJ Award went to Bosnian-German artist Solomun, who has held his iconic “Solomun +1” residency at the renowned Pacha Ibiza for over a decade.
While the main category winners were chosen by public vote, the Grand Jury Awards recognized individuals, organizations, and festivals making a significant impact on the electronic music scene.
