The London venue will host a “landmark” party this October with a slew of special guests

Ministry of Sound is set to celebrate its 35th anniversary this autumn with a “landmark” all-weekend-long event at its home in London.

The Elephant & Castle venue will throw a mammoth party from October 2 – 3, welcoming in a slew of special guests long affiliated with the club who have helped to “define Ministry of Sound’s dancefloor”.

On Friday, October 2, Ministry will host its long-running Louder party headlined by Andy C, who returns to the venue for the first time in 10 years with a three-hour set.

To open things up in the daytime on Saturday, October 3, Hard Times will bring together two legends, Kerri Chandler and Moodymann, with an extended hybrid performance.

Rolling into the evening, Ministry of Sound brings its Urge party back with an all-night event headlined by Loco Dice. More artists will be announced soon.

“Few venues get to celebrate 35 years at the heart of dance music,” says Club Director Matt Long. “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,” he added.

Also in celebration of Ministry of Sound’s anniversary, the club has announced the release of a book, Ministry of Sound: Anthology, charting more than three decades of the famed London institution.

It tells the story of Ministry from the beginning, running its live-streamed talent competition Boxed In, to its “immersive” food and music experience housed inside the newly renovated club today.
