The DJ who built an audience of two million around old school house, trance and Ibiza-era classics plays two headline evenings at Ministry of Sound.
Chris Watson plays two headline evenings at Ministry of Sound in Elephant and Castle on Friday 27 and Saturday 28 November 2026. The DJ has built an online audience of two million around Ibiza-era classics.
Watson has worked as a DJ, artist and producer since 2012. His sets pair old school house, trance and the records of Ibiza’s peak years with newer cuts. He describes his work as connecting the records that shaped dance music with the music pushing it forward.
Online he has worked with David Guetta, Armin van Buuren, MK, Oliver Heldens, Cloonee, Duke Dumont and Chicane, and with the Defected and Armada labels.
In 2026 he signed with Atlantic Records, with releases taking shape for 2027. He holds residencies in Ibiza, including at Ibiza Rocks, and has taken his sets to every continent.
Ministry of Sound is a room he already fills. His own headline shows include a sold-out night at the club, and the Saturday evening sold quickly enough that the club added a second show on the Friday before.
