DJ Minx played the Detroit Pistons halftime show in March 2025. It was her second halftime booking at Little Caesars Arena.
The halftime slot is a small story with a specific resonance. Detroit techno has always had a complicated relationship with the city's mainstream institutions. The music is internationally recognized as a Detroit export, but the civic infrastructure has historically been slow to acknowledge it. An arena halftime booking for a founding-generation female DJ is the kind of gesture that says the recognition is finally showing up at the institutional level.
Minx has been running Women on Wax since 1996, and her catalog spans Detroit house and techno across three decades. The LCA booking was a continuation rather than a debut: she had played a Pistons halftime before, which makes the 2025 appearance part of a pattern rather than a one-off.
DJ Minx's upcoming dates are on her website.
