The Electronic Dance Music Awards<\/a> (EDMAs) are returning to Miami with a twist, joining forces with the resurgent International Dance Music Awards (IDMAs) to host an “elite experience for music industry professionals and fans” in 2025.<\/p>\n

Touted as the longest-running awards ceremony dedicated to the electronic music industry,\u00a0the IDMAs have long been a focal point of Miami’s Winter Music Conference. They’re now returning alongside the beloved\u00a0summit<\/a> for the first time in five years, torpedoing an indefinite hiatus precipitated by the impact of COVID-19.<\/p>\n

The 2025 Winter Music Conference is scheduled for March 26-28 at the Eden Roc Hotel in Miami Beach. ULTRA Worldwide, the world’s most international festival brand<\/a> and organizer of the ensuing Ultra fest at Bayfront Park, is stewarding its development, according to a press release shared with EDM.com<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The EDMAs and IDMAs are set to join forces on the final day of WMC, March 28th. What exactly the collaboration entails remains to be seen, but electronic music enthusiasts can expect a lavish, star-studded event in celebration of the storied conference’s 35th anniversary.<\/p>\n

“The EDMAs have always been about celebrating the fans’ choice, and the energy of the electronic music community,” said iHeartRadio’s Sean “Hollywood” Hamilton, Executive Producer of the EDMAs. “By collaborating with the IDMAs, we are bringing a new dimension to the awards, one that now honors the behind-the-scenes talent that shapes the industry.”<\/p>\n

Driven by a fan-based voting system, the MTV-style EDMA ceremony dishes out unique trophies as mementos, which resemble DJ decks and feature a functional jog-wheel. Last year’s winners<\/a> included Martin Garrix, David Guetta, HAYLA, Kx5 (deadmau5 and Kaskade), Armin van Buuren and FISHER, among other dance music luminaries. Mark Knight, the influential founder of Toolroom Records, won the EDMA Icon Award<\/a>.<\/p>\n
