The 28-year-old Dutch musician ranked number one on DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs list five times, said:

“London, it’s been seven years! I’m so excited to return next summer to play my biggest UK headline show to date at Gunnersbury Park.

“It’s going to be a very special night.”

Martin is globally recognised and big in the US pop and electronic scene.

His success skyrocketed after releasing his debut single, ‘Animals,’ back in 2013 – a floor filler that rose to the top of the charts.

He went on to conquer the mainstream with his anthemic dance and pop records and collaborations with Dua Lipa and Bono, to name a few.

His new single is ‘Told You So’ with Jex.

West London’s Gunnersbury Park is an iconic venue which has played host to PJ Harvey.

Next year, it looks to welcome PAWSA, Khruangbin and The Libertines, and more sets to be announced.

He became the youngest DJ to headline the 2014 Ultra Music Festival aged 17.

As his profile grew he reached global recognition when he signed with Sony Music in the USA.

He lives in Amsterda, but has also spent time in Los Angeles, California and has a home in Ibiza.

Tickets to Gunnersbury Park, London, on Saturday, on 16 August 2025, go on general sale at 10am on Friday.
