2025 New Year’s Eve celebration at O2 Academy Brixton.German selectors and good friends Kolter and Sidney Charles present their first ever London B2B, with Denis Sulta and Luuk Van Dijk making their label debuts. Dutch duo Shermanology return after multiple successful Defected singles as well as label favourites Ella Knight and Rio Tashan.
Last year’s sold out NYE party at The Warehouse Project saw world class DJs from around the world deliver 100% house in Manchester. For 2025/26, we’re bringing the party back to our hometown of London.
After a huge 2025 globally – including an incredible Ibiza season where Defected returned to Pacha, sold out festivals in Croatia and Malta, and another sold-out takeover of North London venue DRUMSHEDS in September 2025 – the demand for Defected parties in London is higher than ever.
Steeped in music history, the O2 Academy Brixton will host us for the very first time. With us bringing our internationally lauded production and roster of the best house music artists from around the world, Defected NYE 2025 promises to be an unforgettable night.
Defected NYE 2025/26 will take place at O2 Academy Brixton from 9pm – 3am. The next wave of tickets will release on Tuesday 11th November. Tickets are available now at: https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/event/3E00633AEC1A954D
