After being the topic of much speculation throughout the off-period, Defected has revealed its new Ibiza home to be that of the palatial setting of Ushuaïa.
In July 2022, new CEO Wez Saunders completed his shock acquisition of the House music conglomerate, blind-siding the industry and sending outward ripples. It was a development that nobody saw coming.
Defected's subsequent migration to Playa d'en Bossa for summer 2024, is one the biggest calls yet under his tenureship. As the label, party series and artist management house embarks on a landmark 25th anniversary dubbed Defected XXV, this exciting new residency proves that while Defected's ambitions knows no bounds, this global force has yet to stop evolving. The best is yet to come.
The extensive line-up in the debut year consists of (A-Z) Arielle Free, Armand Van Helden, Atmos Blaq, The Blessed Madonna, Butch, Cajmere, China Chameleon, Danny Howard, Darius Syrossian, David Penn, Dennis Ferrer, Disclosure (DJ set), DJ EZ, Dunmore Brothers, Eats Everything, Eliza Rose, FKA Mash, Floorplan, Folamour, Gorgon City, Groove Armada (DJ set), Hannah Wants, Hitty, Idris Elba, Kerri Chandler, Kid Fonque, Kitty Amor, lau.ra, Louie Vega & Anané, Low Steppa, Masters At Work, Melé, MK, Monki, Nic Fanciulli, Oden & Fatzo (live), Olive F, Paisley Jensen, Prunk, Rio Tashan, Riva Starr, Roger Sanchez, Rudimental (DJ set), Sam Divine, Sammy Virji, Shermanology, Sio, Todd Edwards, Todd Terry, TSHA and more.
