DJ Mag has opened voting for the Top 100 DJs list in aid of Bridges for Music. You can submit your top 5 DJ picks until September 10, 2025, via this link.
For the past five years, Martin Garrix has held the number one spot on this chart, taking over from the 2023 winner, David Guetta. With this, he has equaled the number of wins held by trance icon Armin van Buuren.
Voting is completely open – anyone can vote by registering with their email address and choosing any five DJs, regardless of their popularity. This is the 32nd year of the poll, which has grown into the world’s largest publicly voted poll and serves as a key insight into the most popular DJs in electronic dance music.
Last year’s list was announced live from AMF 2024 at Amsterdam’s Johan Cruyff ArenA, followed by exclusive performances from Armin van Buuren, Green Velvet, Indira Paganotto, and the winner, Martin Garrix.
This year, DJ Mag has partnered with Bridges for Music to launch a fundraising campaign aimed at empowering young people through music. The funds raised will provide scholarships for youth from underrepresented communities to enroll in Bridges for Music programs in music production or DJing. All programs include mental health support through mindfulness and counseling, as well as covering students’ basic needs.
You can donate to the campaign after voting at the same link.
