Nile Rodgers will be presented with the Legends Award at this year's International Music Summit.

The Chic guitarist will collect the gong at the Summit's Legends Dinner in Ibiza's Hard Rock Hotel on May 21.

The musician, who has collaborated with the likes of Avicii, Daft Punk and Adam Lambert, commented:

"I am extremely honoured to follow Pete Tong, Carl Cox and Fatboy Slim as the fourth recipient of the IMS Legends Award and the IMS Legends Dinner. 

"The award means a lot from the IMS - an event which has been instrumental in introducing me to so many incredible artists in the electronic space. The award also takes me back to Ibiza for a third year in a row and I look forward to whatever surprises the dinner may bring my way!"

IMS partner Ben Turner meanwhile said: "Our love affair with Nile goes on and we are delighted he will be accepting our IMS Legends Award at the now annual industry dinner. This event is becoming a major event on the electronic calendar and in the year that Nile took the top Grammy Awards with Daft Punk, this just feels like an extension of the incredible momentum year he and electronic music is having.

“International Music Summit has unofficially committed to bringing Nile to IMS every single year going forward as he brings energy, vision, history, humour and love to the Summit setting."
