"This is the earliest point in years that even part of our line up has been revealed. Without saying who was playing, the almost unrivaled reputation of the UK's friendliest party has ensured that all of our 6500 places for our 25th anniversary event have already sold out. We're sure you'll agree that this is a remarkable achievement.
The event moved to its new home in Minehead in 2011, slightly increasing its capacity but maintaining its all important vibe.
The new Minehead site offers us 5 separate dance arenas covering soul, hip hop, vocal and deep house, R&B, disco, techno and more, from a carefully selected pool of globally recognised, tastemaking DJs and some of the best residents in the UK.
The 25th anniversary will be lead by a Def Mix reunion, as it sees David Morales and Frankie Knuckles reunited as headliners of our largest room, The Powerhouse. Many more DJs will be added to this line up after Christmas, along with all our fantastic live acts."
