DJ Mag Top 100 DJs Voting Begins
If you’re just getting into electronic music, the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll has a long history—dating back to 1993, when it was first introduced to mark DJ Magazine’s 100th issue. What started as a curated list of standout DJs has since transformed into the world’s largest fan-driven poll for electronic dance music artists. Now in its 32nd year, it continues to reflect the evolving tastes and global reach of the EDM community.
DJ Mag Top 100 Poll
Unlike many industry awards, the Top 100 DJs poll is completely open to the public—no nominations, no entry barriers. Fans are free to vote for any five DJs they admire, whether they’re rising newcomers or global icons. In 2024, Dutch sensation Martin Garrix reclaimed the #1 position for the fifth time, matching Armin van Buuren’s record for the most wins in the poll’s history. David Guetta, who held the top spot in 2023, came in second this year. The Belgian duo Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike secured third place, while Brazilian bass and house powerhouse Alok landed at #4. Rounding out the top five was Timmy Trumpet, the Australian DJ known for fusing live trumpet performances with high-energy dance music. AMF 2024 unveiled the results live at Amsterdam’s Johan Cruyff ArenA, followed by exclusive sets from Armin van Buuren, Green Velvet, Indira Paganotto, and Martin Garrix.
Looking ahead to 2025, DJ Mag has teamed up with Bridges for Music to launch a new fundraising initiative. The campaign will use the global reach of the Top 100 DJs platform to support young people through music education. Proceeds will fund scholarships for underrepresented youth to attend Bridges for Music’s programs in DJing and music production. These programs also include mental health support and cover students’ basic needs.
Fans this year have already voted for the Top 100 clubs with Hï Ibiza retaining its #1 spot. Mid last month they released the Top 100 Festivals for 2025 with Tomorrowland Belgium claiming the #1 Spot with it being no surprise. Voting for the 2025 edition is now open and will close at 23:59 BST on 10 September 2025. Cast your vote at https://top100djsvote.djmag.com.
