Ministry of Sound will mark its 35th birthday with a weekend-long celebration at its London home on 2nd and 3rd October 2026. Few clubs remain at the forefront of electronic music after 35 years, and the birthday programming aims to represent the breadth of genres and generations that have defined Ministry of Sound’s dancefloor. Across one weekend, heavyweights Andy C, Kerri Chandler, Moodymann and Loco Dice will take over the club with more names to be announced.  

Louder, Ministry of Sound’s long-running night, are the hosts for Friday night. Drum & bass royalty, Andy C returns to Ministry of Sound for the first time in 10 years for an extended three-hour set, playing music from his brand new fourth album. One of the most technically accomplished DJs in the world and a figure inseparable from the history of the genre, his return to the club for its birthday weekend is a moment a decade in the making.

Saturday 3rd October begins with the influential house brand & label, Hard Times, bringing together two of house music’s most singular and revered figures. New York’s deep house pioneer Kerri Chandler delivers an extended hybrid set alongside Detroit royalty Moodymann, whose ability to move between genres and moods with complete authority makes him one of the most unique DJs on the planet. This is set to be a daytime session of serious weight.

Saturday night closes with Urge, Ministry of Sound’s flagship underground house and techno night, headlined by Loco Dice. The Tunisian-German DJ and producer brings his signature deep, chunky and groove-first approach to what will be a fitting final chapter to the celebrations.

“Few venues get to celebrate 35 years at the heart of dance music. We wanted to mark this milestone with a line-up that reflects both our heritage and where our sound is today. It’s an honour to celebrate this anniversary with such incredible talent, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you all.” – Club Director, Matt Long.
