Voting is now open in DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs poll 2026

by London-TV in Business

Voting is now open for the 2026 edition of DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs, with fans around the world invited to cast their votes for the artists who have defined the past 12 months in electronic music.

Voting is open now at top100djsvote.djmag.com and will close on 16th September 2026.

Now in its 33rd year, Top 100 DJs began in 1993 as an editorially-curated list celebrating the 100th issue of DJ Magazine. What started as a list compiled by the magazine’s editorial team has since grown into the world’s largest publicly voted music poll, attracting millions of votes and providing an annual snapshot of the artists making the greatest impact across electronic music worldwide.

The poll remains fully open, with no nominations, shortlists or eligibility criteria. Every voter is free to choose any five DJs, regardless of genre, profile or audience size, allowing established stars and emerging talent to compete on equal terms.

Following the success of last year’s inaugural campaign, Top 100 DJs will once again partner with Bridges for Music. The 2025 initiative raised £170,832, to fund music education, mental health support and entrepreneurship programmes for young people from underserved communities at the Bridges for Music Academy in Langa, South Africa. Further details of this year’s campaign will be announced during the voting period.

A chance to make Top 100 DJs history

The 2026 poll arrives at an important moment in the history of Top 100 DJs. Last year, David Guetta claimed his fifth victory, joining Martin Garrix and Armin van Buuren as the only artists ever to reach five number-one titles.

With just three DJs having achieved that milestone in more than three decades of the poll, this year’s vote marks another significant chapter in the poll’s history, as fans once again determine who will join the list of Top 100 DJs winners.

Voting closes on 16th September 2026, with the results of Top 100 DJs 2026 set to be announced on 6th October 2026. Further details on this year’s results format and awards show will be announced in the coming weeks.

Fans can cast their votes now at top100djsvote.djmag.com. Voters in mainland China can once again participate via the dedicated Chinese voting platform at djmagvote.cn.
