London institution Ministry of Sound announces a new resident DJ programme for 2026, introducing a cohort of artists who will play a central role in shaping the club’s sound both in London and internationally. The programme launches on 14 March with HOME ROOTED, a showcase event dedicated to the six residents representing the club for 2026.

DJ residencies have long been the backbone of club culture, including at Ministry of Sound who have famously had the likes of DJ Harvey, Tony Humphries and CJ Mackintosh over the years. Alongside those favourites, figures such as Frankie Knuckles at The Warehouse, Larry Levan at Paradise Garage and Marcel Dettmann at Berghain have demonstrated how consistent residents can define the musical identity of a venue and influence a city’s sonic culture. With this programme, Ministry of Sound places Resident DJs back at the centre of club culture.

Says Head of Talent, Travis Derrick, “Ministry of Sound has always been a place where new talent can grow into global artists. With HOME ROOTED, we’re celebrating the DJs who are part of the club’s DNA – artists who have already built a connection with our dancefloor and who we believe are ready for the next stage. This residency is about backing those artists properly and giving them the platform to represent both the club in London & on a global level.”

The residents to be announced are Paisley Jensen, Basso, Omari and Daniella Font, all of whom have previously played at the club and established themselves as reliable selectors within London’s underground circuit. Two further artists, Chanel Carmichael and Siân Own, are also part of the 2026 residency programme, focusing primarily on international appearances as part of the club’s global touring schedule.

The launch arrives as Ministry of Sound marks its 35th anniversary, with the residency programme forming part of the wider global celebrations. Alongside regular appearances in London, selected residents will represent the brand internationally through key dates on the Ministry of Sound 35 World Tour, bringing the club’s sound to audiences worldwide in locations such as Miami, Ibiza, Mykonos, Bali and more.

The programme underscores the club’s continued commitment to its core sound and the DJs who drive it, locally and internationally.
