Sagamore Pool Party MMW: Defected Miami

A poolside house music takeover unfolds at the Sagamore Hotel during Miami Music Week, continuing a multi-day series curated by DJ Mag.

Sagamore Pool Party MMW: Defected Miami marks the second event in DJ Mag’s five-day residency at the Sagamore Hotel on Miami Beach, transforming the hotel’s iconic pool deck into a daytime gathering point for international dance music culture. Presented as part of DJ Mag’s Miami Music Week programming, this installment hands the reins to Defected, the influential UK label and event brand synonymous with contemporary house music.

Known for shaping global house music culture through its releases, radio platform and festival stages, Defected brings its distinct sound and community-driven energy to South Beach for an all-day pool party. The artist lineup will be announced closer to the event.

Running from 1 to 11 p.m., the Defected showcase follows the opening DJ Mag Presents event and leads into subsequent takeovers by Knee Deep in Miami with Hot Since 82, Danny Tenaglia, and Glitterbox, each defining a different chapter of the Sagamore’s Miami Music Week series.
