Planet’s best DJs to play the world’s biggest online back to back DJ set with Coors & Mixmag

Fatboy Slim, Carl Cox, Hot Since 82, Jamie Jones, Charlotte De Witte, Pete Tong, Nicole Moudaber, Kerri Chandler, Sherelle and 11 more of the planet’s best DJs to play the world’s biggest online back to back DJ set

Mixmag, the world’s biggest dance music media brand and Coors, the world’s most refreshing beer, have teamed up to create The Lab: 10 Years Party – a one-off online event celebrating a decade of the iconic DJ streaming series.

On Friday March 26, Coors and Mixmag will celebrate a decade of The Lab with The Lab: 10 Years Party, which will give listeners the chance to enjoy a continuous mix that will travel from Brisbane to London, New York to Cape Town, from the comfort of their home. Each DJ from The Lab’s line-up will play three tracks, mixing into the artist before them in one continuous back to back DJ set moving around the planet.

This unique event will comprise a four-hour back to back DJ set featuring 25 of the biggest DJs on the planet, playing remotely from every corner of the globe. DJs include Fatboy Slim, Carl Cox, Hot Since 82, Jamie Jones, Charlotte De Witte, Nicole Moudaber, Sherelle and many more.

Coors Light recently rebranded to Coors, with a multimillion-pound marketing spend in the UK to drive ongoing growth in the premium 4% beer category. The move underlines the brand’s refreshing taste and Rocky Mountain heritage and will be supported by new packaging and point-of-sale material to help retailers drive sales.

Sophie Jamieson, Coors marketing controller for Western Europe at Molson Coors, said: “The Lab is a fantastic platform, bringing some of the world’s best music and mosttalented artists into people’s homes. Uniting people through the power of music, especially at a time like this when it’s not possible to enjoy live acts in person, is something we’re hugely passionate about as a brand.

“Our partnership with Mixmag has produced some amazing events over the years, including support at our Ice Cave Raves in Manchester and a DJ Academy for budding undiscovered talent. Ten Years of the Lab is arguably our freshest / biggest collaboration yet and we can’t wait for people to see what the show has in store for them.”

Nick Stevenson the Managing Director of Mixmag said: “The Lab is the most watched DJ booth on the planet and for the last decade we’ve hosted some of the most engaging, ground-breaking and outrageous DJ streams on Earth. Alongside our partners at Coors we wanted to do something unique to celebrate 10 years of this weekly party and in March our global back to back DJ set with a line-up of legends, will be the DJ stream to end all DJ streams.

“No one has attempted anything like this before and we can’t wait to invite the planet to grab a beer, make a dancefloor in their lounge and invite 25 of the world’s best DJs into their house, one after the other – all without breaking any lockdown rules.“
