Former BBC Radio One DJ Tim Westwood will next appear in court in December on charges of sexual offending against seven women.
The 68-year-old is facing a raft of accusations dating back to the 1980s, including rape, sexual assault, and indecent assault.
He has denied all of the charges.
The former Capital Xtra DJ was excused from attending a further case management hearing at Southwark Crown Court on Monday.
The hearing was set to facilitate disclosure between the prosecution and Westwood’s defence team.
His trial is set to begin on 25 January 2027.
Westwood will next appear at a pre-trial review on 14 December.
He is accused of four indecent assaults in the 1980s in London, as well as the three indecent assaults at the BBC in the 1990s.
The defendant is also alleged to have raped a woman in a hotel in 1996.
Westwood is further accused of two indecent assaults and one count of rape from the early 2000s at a London address, and two counts of rape at a London address in the 2010s.
He is also alleged to have sexually assaulted a woman at a nightclub in Stroud, Gloucestershire, in 2010.
Westwood, who has been granted bail on the condition that he does not contact the complainants, has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
