It’s that time of year again—DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs poll is officially open, giving dance music fans around the world the chance to vote for the artists who have soundtracked their year. Voting is open now and runs through 16th September 2026, with this year’s campaign once again supporting Bridges for Music.
Now in its 33rd year, the Top 100 DJs poll has become one of the most anticipated annual moments in electronic music. What started in 1993 as a special feature celebrating the 100th issue of DJ Magazine has grown into the world’s largest publicly voted DJ poll, reflecting the artists making the biggest impact across the global dance music scene.
One of the reasons the poll remains so popular is its simplicity. There are no nominations or pre-selected finalists—fans can vote for any five DJs they feel deserve recognition, whether they’re international headliners or rising names making waves in the underground.
Last year, David Guetta made history by claiming his fifth Top 100 DJs title, putting him alongside Martin Garrix and Armin van Buuren as the only artists to reach the No. 1 spot five times. The results were revealed during a special event at [UNVRS] Ibiza, followed by performances from Armin van Buuren, Boris Brejcha, Indira Paganotto, Jazzy, Miss Monique, and Guetta himself.
With another incredible year of releases, festival performances, and breakthrough talent, the race for the 2026 rankings is officially underway. Whether you’re backing a longtime favorite or championing an emerging artist, now is your chance to have your say.
Voting closes on 16th September 2026, so be sure to cast your vote before the deadline. Fans can cast their votes now at top100djsvote.djmag.com.
