The Masquerade

The man behind the golden mask, Claptone, is back for another week of his mammoth 23-week residency, bringing the party vibes with him as the season comes to a close. But don’t fret! You’ve still got time to experience one of the most talked-about nights on the island before the season is out! The illusive gold-masked and white-gloved DJ and producer took over the coveted Saturday spot in 2022 in one of the world’s most iconic nightclubs, bringing his unique party concept once again to the island’s oldest super club. No stranger to the infamous red cherries, the brand held a 19-week residency back in 2019 which was dubbed “the perfect night out” by the maestro himself. This year, like previously, you will be treated to fun and uplifting house music whilst being dazzled by trippy visuals and incredible performers that add an extra dimension to the night that you never knew you needed, but will soon realise that you most definitely do. Inspired by traditional Venetian masked balls and brought into the 21st century with an electrifying elaborate atmosphere - there are always a few surprises when it comes to a night at Masquerade. You’ll have to be there to truly immerse yourself and discover the magic and mystery that awaits! And not only that, Pacha Ibiza’s iconic funky room will be open and headed by DJ Pippi & Willie Graff alongside Paul Powell. It’s time to get your groove on! Claptone has toured worldwide, from Buenos Aires’ GEBA stadium to New York’s Brooklyn Mirage and London’s Printworks to occupying its own arena at Belgium’s Tomorrowland. The German star has risen through the ranks throughout his career, touring the Masquerade concept since 2016, and is now truly ready to take on his second season of residency in the world's party capital. Brothers Stephen and David Dewaele started off together in a band before working on their remix projects under the name 2manydjs. The Belgians have had incredible success across their multiple-decade career, including their remix of Marie Davidson's "Work It" being nominated for Best Remixed Recording at the 2020 Grammy Awards. Italian-born, London-based DJ, producer and owner of Snatch! Records Riva Starr has graced the stages of the biggest festivals in the world, from Glastonbury to Fuji Rock and can turn it out on any dance floor across the globe. His collaboration with Fatboy Slim on the track "Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat." gave him huge mainstream success back in 2013. Berlin’s Shir Khan is a DJ, producer and founder of the Exploited label which has its own night at Watergate in Berlin. He is credited for introducing the world to artists such as Claptone himself, as well as Adana Twins, Joyce Muniz and Doctor Dru.
