List of artists who reached number one on the U.S. Dance chart

Encyclopedia : L : LI : LIS : List of artists who reached number one on the U.S. Dance chart

This is a list of recording artists who have reached number one on Billboard magazine's Hot Dance Club Play chart. Billboard began ranking dance music on the week ending October 26 1974 and this is the standard music popularity chart in the United States for play in nightclubs.

All acts are listed alphabetically.
Solo artists are alphabetized by last name, Groups by group name excluding "A," "An" and "The."
Each act's total of number one U.S. dance hits is shown after their name.
All artists who are mentioned in song credits are listed here; this includes one-time pairings of otherwise solo artists and those appearing as "featured".
Many dance artists and producers utilize aliases and pseudonymns - this list shows whichever artist name was used on the record (for example, Size 9 gets one credit for "I'm Ready," instead of Josh Wink).
Artists associated with a group who reached number one, yet have their own solo page in Wikipedia are not listed here, unless they hit number one as a solo artist.
