The most anticipated weekend in the Ibiza clubbing calendar awaits - BBC Radio 1 has announced the return of its acclaimed Dance Weekend to the white isle for 2023.

For those unfamiliar, BBC Radio 1 is the largest, most popular and most listened to radio station in the UK, airing an around-the-clock program of fresh new dance music from the most exciting upcoming and established artists.

Every year during peak summer, BBC R1 takes to Ibiza for an extended weekend of live broadcasts and explosive sets from the best artists and DJs in the scene right now.

Friday, July 28   is the start date you are looking for, with the program continuing through to Sunday, July 30  (which, from experience, typically means a Monday morning finish), don't worry you've got plenty of time to plan your trip accordingly.

Announced by the long-reigning host of BBC R1's Friday night Dance Party, tastemaker and DJ Danny Howard proudly confirmed the unexpected change of venue for this year's weekender live on air during his weekly slot.

Formerly broadcasted from the island's most famous sunset spot Cafè Mambo as well as from live takeovers at some the island's best venues, this year the BBC are taking it up a notch to give us a weekend like we’ve never seen. 

The eccentric 528 Ibiza (former home of the island’s infamous Zoo Project party) will be taking the lead for 2023. The first time hosting an event of this caliber, the quirky venue will lay on four epic stages including Radio 1 Dance, Radio 1’s Dance Anthems, Radio 1 Relax, and BBC Music Introducing.

Keeping us firmly on our toes, they have revealed the first five names on the line-up and as always, they have not disappointed. Eats Everything, Hannah Wants, Fisher, Patrick Topping, and LP Giobbi are set for San Antonio at the end of July, with many more names still to be announced. Keep your eyes peeled.

With international flights currently at the cheapest they’re likely to be, now is the time to act and get booking your once in-a-lifetime vacation to the White Isle.

For now, we’ll leave you with a knockout set from Diplo recorded live at Café Mambo, for Radio 1’s Dance Weekend 2022.

You can buy tickets from 02.24.23. 


The Most Anticipated Weekend in Ibiza: BBC Radio 1 Dance Weekend 

A term used widely within the electronic music industry, a DJ residency is a series of consecutive shows, similar to a concert tour, but only performed at one location.

A residency aims to create a relationship between the artist and the venue, which should be symbiotic and mutually beneficial, as a way of attracting crowds in the masses.

In places like Ibiza during the summer season, it’s renowned for clubs to have multiple DJ residencies most days of the week. Only one small island with a ton of high-caliber electronic music clubs means there’s a lot of competition to sell tickets and boast a packed-out dancefloor.

By putting a residency in place, the statement is bold, insinuating “if you want to see this DJ play, then buy a ticket to our club.” Proven a successful concept for over five decades, there have been many famous residencies around the world since the late 1970s.

Frankie Knuckles at The Warehouse (Chicago)

It’s only right to start with the man that defined what it means to be a resident DJ - Mr. Frankie Knuckles.

More than a DJ, he was an architect of sound, who added a new dimension to the art of mixing, through his disco and soul-infused house sounds, as well as innovative use of the Roland 909 drum machine under original, old-school tracks.

It all began in 1977 when Knuckles became the first musical director of The Warehouse or "The House", a nightclub in Chicago, Illinois. It is today most famous for being what many consider to be the birthplace of “house music.”

The venue was largely patronized by a Black, Latino, and primarily gay crowd. Knuckles began to gain a loyal following, with people flooding in every week to dance to his impeccable selection of underground 4/4 tracks, for which he is so fabled. 

Arguably one of the most significant figures in electronic music, Knuckles's residency at The Warehouse paved the way for the art of DJing and house music's significance today.

Carl Cox at Space (Ibiza)

One of the most renowned residencies in the electronic music world can be devoted to Carl Cox and his 15-year-long collaboration with Space Ibiza, from 2001 to 2016.

When Space came into his life in the mid-90s, Cox was already a success, however, Ibiza gave the pioneer the stability that many DJs aspire to have but never receive. Playing every week during the summer season on the island, thousands would fly into the Balearica to see Coxy upon the decks in the megaclub.

After the club changed hands in 2016, Cox’s residency came to an end and was celebrated with a mammoth closing party where he played an iconic 9-hour set. This set went down in musical history and added to the legendary status of himself and the Space Ibiza enterprise.

He still continues to play on the white isle each summer across various venues. He remains synonymous with the party island, with his residency at the mega club an integral part of Ibiza’s musical heritage.

Other notable residencies include:

Joris Voorn Trouw (Amsterdam)

Ben Klock and Marcel Dettmann from Berghain (Berlin).

Craig Richards at Fabric (London)

Danny Tenaglia in Tunnel (New York)

Larry Levan at Paradise Garage (New York)

Ron Hardy at Music Box (Chicago)

Ibiza Selects (September 26 – October 2)

September is traditionally when most Ibiza closing parties appear on the events calendar. However, seeing that this is the longest summer season to date, we get to extend those closing parties for more than three weeks. If you’re a dance music lover, making room for one last dance at one of Ibiza’s mega clubs should undoubtedly be at the top of your bucket list.



There’s a reason the White Isle’s clubs rank among the top in the world. And in 2022, the island has reestablished itself as the scene’s epicenter, bringing the best international DJs weekly. In terms of numbers, over 1.3 million passengers arrived at Ibiza's Airport in July, an increase of almost 50% over July 2021, when the coronavirus cut the season short, and clubs weren't even allowed to open until October. And while Ibiza is a popular destination for travelers of all kinds, this record-breaking year indicates that thousands arrive looking for a once-in-a-life party experience.


This year some hotels, beach clubs, and restaurants remain open for the whole month of October, so entertainment is still on the agenda in Ibiza. For loyal clubbers and party lovers, this time of the year is particularly magical, the weather is perfect, and the attitude and mood of the DJs, workers, and residents is relaxed and a little nostalgic.


We've gathered our recommendations for the best parties during closing month in Ibiza.










Hï Ibiza

Proclaimed the world’s #1 club by DJMag in 2022, Hï Ibiza transformed itself into a must-visit on the island in just a few years. Run by The Night League, both Hï and Ushuaïa (Hï's sister venue) have proved to have the best lighting, sound, and production on the island. Both venues have attracted many of the best DJs in the world, hosting their dream weekly residencies.




On Tuesday, September 27, The Martinez Brothers' debut headline residency draws to a close. The boys are bringing American DJ and house producer Kerri Chandler and Argentinian-born Berlin-based Guti, who will perform live. Looking after the Club Room for the last time, Spanish techno stalwart Paco Osuna brings Renato Ratier and a secret special guest for the occasion.









The first headline residency for Australian superstar FISHER ends on Wednesday, September 28. He will play all night long in the Theatre, and Brazilian DJ and producer Vintage Culture will host the Club Room.









Afterlife, led by Italian duo Carmine Conte and Matteo Milleri, known professionally as Tale of Us, take over Ushuaïa and Hï Ibiza with a day-to-night Grand Finale on Thursday, September 29, making it the most historic Afterlife closing ever.









David Guetta brings his unique dance sounds to the Future Rave closing party on Friday, September 30, alongside Morten, Idris Elba, and more guests in both rooms.


South African pioneer Black Coffee’s residency concludes on October 1. He first took up his residency at Hï Ibiza in 2017, and he is ready to close the season in style with fellow Drake producer &Me and DJ Kabila. Damian Lazarus will be shutting the Club Room doors too.









Sunday, October 2, brings the last chance to dance at Glitterbox under Hï Ibiza’s roof this summer, serving up house and disco sounds plus an exceptional and immersive atmosphere.









Hï Ibiza will also host a glorious closing party led by some of the club’s most iconic residents, such as The Martinez Brothers and Tale Of Us. In addition, an avalanche of dance icons will join them, including ANNA, Peggy Gou, and Anfisa Letyago, to celebrate Hï’s most successful year since its inception in 2017.









Ushuaïa Ibiza

Hï Ibiza’s sister venue, Ushuaïa, first opened in 2011 and has revolutionized Ibiza again this year. Exclusive one-off events, the best DJs in the world, and trend-setting production have positioned Ushuaïa Ibiza as the sixth of the Top 100 Best Clubs worldwide. Since the beginning of September, the open-air beach club has shut down many of the party residencies. F*** Me I’m Famous, its most-in-demand event guided by David Guetta, will be the last to close on Monday, October 3.




The infamous ANTS Colony is responsible for the final party of the summer. On Saturday, October 8, One More dANTS wraps up the season with a massive house and techno line-up and three special back-to-backs right before the Hï Ibiza Closing Party on the same day.



















DC10

The Mecca for ravers located on Salinas road will close out with the unrivaled Circoloco festival on Monday, October 10, running from 6 pm to early the next morning. The Circoloco and DC10 closing party features 23 artists celebrating 23 years on the radar, a must for all fans of an authentic Ibiza clubbing experience.









The old hangar has been home to some big names on the scene this summer, such as Carl Cox, Amelie Lens, and Patrick Topping, who all celebrated their closing parties in late August. In addition, London record label Solid Grooves has hosted 17 thriving Thursdays at the club and invite underground music lovers to the final dance on Thursday, September 29.












Club Chinois

The island's newest spot, Club Chinois, located in Marina Botafoch (previously Heart Club and Restaurant), opened in June, hosting renowned artists and headlining entertainers. The last parties scheduled for its first-ever Ibiza season are Catharsis by Sven Väth on Tuesday, Colours by Themba on Wednesday, September 28, and Luciano on Saturday, September 30.




The first week of October brings Moon Harbour's exclusive showcase on Tuesday, October 4, A Starry Night by Satori on Thursday, October 6, and the following week, La Troya closes a short season on Monday, October 10.




UNA by Ida Engberg wraps up on Tuesday, October 11. Then, Boho Experience by Camilo Franco starts at Beachouse open-air club during the day on Thursday, October 13. And at midnight, the Colombian DJ and guests move to Chinois to conclude the season.




On Friday, October 14, We're Here by Pablo Fierro brings positive and happy tropical beats one last time to Chinois. And on Sunday, October 16, the decadent new nightspot celebrates its first-ever grand finale.
















Amnesia

Amnesia, one of the oldest clubs in Ibiza, opened in the 70s and has always hosted the longest closing ceremonies, regularly stretching for more than 12 hours. Forget dancing until sunrise; you'll be grooving well into the next afternoon on the Terrace.




But before Amnesia’s official farewell party, elrow will close out the venue's busiest night on Saturday, October 1, with a brand new theme, Delusionville. Paradise—run by Jamie Jones and the Hot Creation crew— finalize The Age of Love, their first ever season at Amnesia, on Wednesday, October 5. And Amnesia's in-house brand, Pyramid, celebrates for two nights Sunday, October 2 and October 9.




Last but not least, the day chosen by the San Rafael nightclub to celebrate its “Not Just Another Closing” event is Saturday, October 15.

Ending with a note of nostalgia, Amnesia announced big beat pioneers, The Chemical Brothers (Ed Simons and Tom Rowlands), who will make their one-and-only appearance in Ibiza this summer on the infamous Terrace. Cuartero, Eats Everything, Marco Faraone and Jamie Jones will take over the Terrace in the AM hours. The Main room will host techno figures such as Nina Kraviz, Luca Donzelli, Kobosil, and more to be announced.














Cova Santa

Born and raised in Ibiza, WooMooN kicked off a few years ago in the beautiful surroundings of the Amnesia-owned Cova Santa venue. A conceptual event that presents nomadic sounds fused with performances, art, nature, food, and magic. The WooMooN closing party coincides with Cova Santa’s last day open this summer on Sunday, October 9.




















Pacha

Until 2018 (with the change of ownership), Pacha was the only club that remained open year-round in Ibiza for residents and off-season tourists. Nevertheless, Ibiza’s most iconic club is officially the last venue to close the party season over two weeks in October. Beginning on Monday, October 3, with the legendary Flower Power party, followed by Bedouin’s newest residency, “A Wednesday Saga,” on October 5, and the enigmatic DJ and producer Claptone closes up The Masquerade on Saturday, October 8.




The following week, Marco Carola carries out the unbeatable Music On Marathon for more than 12 hours on Friday, October 14, kicking things off at Destino Resort during the day and continuing the party at Pacha from midnight into the morning. For real party animals!




Firmly established as the king of Sundays in Ibiza, Solomun takes over the venue for the very last time with Boys Noize as his +1 guest on Sunday, October 16, which marks the last chance to enjoy one of Ibiza’s leading parties this season.




























The Gray Area Guide to Ibiza Closing Parties 2022

However, since we are living the most extended season to date, we will be celebrating the final dance well beyond this week.

Ibiza has always been a remarkable destination for music, sound, production, and its super clubs. However, there is something about smaller, less crowded venues that have a free-entry policy.

Located along the San Antonio Bay sidewalk, the legendary restaurant and bar is open throughout the day and when the night falls, it becomes the pit-stop for top artists where they warmup with a more intimate vibe and create the hype before their big nights ahead.

Ibiza Selects (July 25-31)

DC10 is the latest Ibiza club to land on the wrong side of the law. The local police of Sant Josep cited noise complaints in a decision to seal the establishment’s music equipment on Tuesday night, preventing the Carl Cox Invites residency from taking place.




According to Mr. Afterparty, most ticket holders learned of the cancellation when ticketing platforms contacted them to offer refunds. The following day, Periódico de Ibiza reported that the club is now one of 22 to have wire clasps soldered on limiters, amps, or compressors due to noise complaint investigations so far this year.




On Wednesday, DC10 issued a statement on social media announcing that Carl Cox Invites had been moved to Tuesday, July 26th, on account of “circumstances outside our control.” Comments on the posts suggest that several would-be attendees had planned trips to coincide with the previous date.




“I planned holidays to see the king,” wrote one commentator. “Very very sad to have not seen Cox yesterday.”




“Only here this week,” wrote another. “So because you can't turn the volume down we've all had to miss out on Carl Cox, and now Solid Grooves isn't on tonight, either?”




The Sant Josep City Council has received 143 noise complaints connected to establishments thus far in 2022. Of the 42 investigated, 20 were reportedly found in compliance and were not subject to equipment seals.




This is not the first time DC10 has landed in the crosshairs of lawmakers for its perceived impact on the surrounding area. In November 2020, the establishment allegedly refused to take down six of its eight billboard fences found to be obstructing the natural landscapes of the island.




Spanish brothers Deogracias and Antonio Lara Moreno opened DC10 in 1999. The house and techno club has benefited from a partnership with Circoloco that sees the event brand’s founders, Antonio Carbonaro and Andrea Pelino, hold a small stake in the venue.

One of Ibiza’s main attractions is visiting a hippie market. Dating back to 1985 and located in the heart of San Carlos, Las Dalias is the oldest one of its kind on the island. It opens every Saturday during the day and during the summer season, it presents a more relaxed version from 7 pm on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays with exclusive stalls (some of them different from the ones at the classic Saturday market). 

Worldwide artisans, designers, and painters present their unique art at Las Dalias, where you can also find handicrafts made in Ibiza. More than a hundred stands offer distinctive artifacts, exclusive vintage, and colorful fashion or jewelry. Stroll around accompanied by live music and grab something to eat or drink from a variety of food trucks, or sit at Las Dalias café and restaurant and taste delicious Mediterranean cuisine. The market was around when the café opened in 1954 and it has been a real meeting point for different cultures and free-spirited people since then.

Party tips aside, every day is an adventure here, and enjoying the sunsets in Ibiza is a daily ritual for holidaymakers.







On the western coastline near San Antonio town lies Cala Comte, a picture-perfect beach. Take a dip in the turquoise Mediterranean waters and let the white sand get between your toes. It is also an excellent spot for snorkeling and sunsets. Grab a bite at Sunset Ashram, a bohemian restaurant with a mix of Japanese, Indian, and Mediterranean cuisine located in a beautiful cove that provides a special sunset session by Balearic DJs. We recommend you book ahead if you want a table or hammock to enjoy the day out!







Another magical place on the outskirts of the San Antonio village to watch the sunset is Hostal La Torre, located in Cap Negret. It hosts daily “Sunsets with music” to celebrate Balearic beats and chill-out from 5 pm, courtesy of some of the island’s best resident DJs. La Torre is a boutique hostel that offers accommodation, Mediterranean food, and delicious cocktails. It is an ideal location as the horizon meets the sea just in front of its chic terrace, and the sun sets right in the middle during the summer.
























Weekly Ibiza Selections (May 23–May 29)

Ibiza and Mallorca—two lush Spanish islands known as party and vacation hotspots—have imposed a strict alcohol law that has banned happy hour, two-for-one drinks, and open bars.

This latest attempt to curb alcohol abuse on the Balearic islands also includes a "six-drink rule" at bars, restaurants, and all-inclusive resorts, with a three-drink limit per person during lunch and dinner. In addition, retailers that sell alcohol must be closed from 9:30 p.m. until 8 a.m. daily.

Bar crawls, and party boats were previously outlawed date and remain so. The new rules also include a ban on "balconing," or jumping in-between balconies or from a balcony into a pool.

Fines for tourists caught breaking the rules range from €1000 to €6000, while businesses can be fined €60,001 to €600,000 and shuttered for up to three years.

The new drinking law applies to the popular resort areas of San Antoni de Portmany, Magaluf, El Arenal, and Playa de Palma. It also impacts all-inclusive resorts across both islands.

The law was approved in early 2020 and went into effect in 2021 but has been making the news rounds recently as British tourists travel to the islands and come into contact with the new rules. The current law states the new rules will be in place until 2025. Its approval coincides with the Balearic Islands adding Ibiza to their joint campaign with the British embassy to, as DJ Mag stated, "promote the islands as a safe destination, free of uncivil behavior."

In 2009, the Catalan parliament banned happy hour and other drink discounts like two-for-one in Barcelona. (Catalunya is the autonomous region home to Barcelona, Ibiza, Mallorca, and other scenic locales in Northeast Spain.) Widely perceived as an attempt to limit the recklessness of drunken British stag parties, the government said it was about public health, not targeting vacationing Brits.

On top of these parties, one of the most entertaining cultural events of the year starts Thursday, May 12, the Ibiza Medieval Festival. After a two-year hiatus, Ibiza's old town travels back in time to celebrate its cultural heritage.




This exclusive event takes place in Dalt Vila (upper town in English) until Sunday, May 15, transforming the city into a vast open-air street theatre. Inside the most well-conserved acropolis in the Mediterranean (named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1999), all kinds of characters such as witches, jesters, knights, princesses, princes, warriors, wizards, dragons, and diverse handcraft artists fill all corners with the sounds, tastes, and aromas of the Middle Ages.









This unique fair is reminiscent of an era in which a multicultural population lived in peace and harmony on the island. It features a wide array of daily events and activities and live music—an essential attraction for all ages. Get lost amongst the labyrinth of market stalls and antique treasures, chocolate and jewel makers, and savor typical food and drinks while enjoying live performances.




This is the best way to discover the multicultural patchwork of Ibiza and its roots.












If you fancy a swim without leaving the city, visit Figueretas Beach, located just 15 minutes away from the center. This popular beach consists of a pedestrian walkway with easy access and is one of the best equipped in the area, with a wide range of shops, bars, and restaurants to enjoy. We suggest you sit on Oli Beach's terrace to taste delicious Spanish tapas and sangria.

Whether pre-gaming or winding down after the afters, spending a day at a beach club is mandatory when in Ibiza. Whether you want a lazy day sunbathing with a mojito and some tasty Mediterranean bites, or if you are looking for some entertainment while dipping your feet in the sea, Platja d’en Bossa is a must. It's the longest beachfront on the island, where some of the most popular beach clubs are located.




Nassau Beach Club can be found in the middle of this picturesque beach, with friendly staff and fun yet laid-back attitude. You can sample Mediterranean cuisine or select from a wide selection of cocktails from your hammock or Balinese bed. It is also a great party retreat by the sea with music all day long and some special happenings during the summer. www.nassaubeachclub.com/









Located at the end of D’en Bossa, Beach House is like a Caribbean oasis with a bohemian style that offers distinct experiences. Chose from massages and yoga classes on the beach in the morning before a revitalizing breakfast or bottle service if you want to live a more luxurious experience. They occasionally host events with DJs, and it's also ideal for trying local products. Open from dawn to dusk. www.beachouseibiza.com/









Bora Bora opened in 1982 and is the oldest beach club on the island. It is a perfect option if you like to keep close to your party desires and dance on the sand or around the pool in its backyard, El Patio. You can also book accommodations here at the Bora Bora Apartments (only recommended for party animals who like the fuss and don’t care about bustle). There is also a restaurant where you can savor Japanese-Mediterranean fusion food with beach service. www.boraboraibiza.net








Circoloco, ANTS, Defected & Glitterbox Return for the 2022 Season

Ibiza is an inseparable part of some of the world’s biggest party brands. Some were born on the island. Many call it their second home. The White Isle has been a permanent magnet for a wide range of genres and music styles, inspiring aficionados and party-goers worldwide.



Since the first superclubs—Amnesia and Pacha—were founded in the ’70s, Ibiza has remained synonymous with dance music and club culture's evolution. And with each new club and residency, Ibiza further cemented its global reputation as a trendsetter.



The golden age of electronic music in Ibiza went hand in hand with the rave wave of the 90s, encouraging promoters and musicians from across the planet to try their luck on the island each summer with new creative concepts.



Throughout the years, big-name DJs and world-renown promoters have

become residents at the clubs they once raved as teenagers. Ibiza has helped them reach new heights in the industry and been an engine for their careers.



As Ibiza prepares for its biggest season yet, let’s look at some of the island’s most influential artists and their longest-running residencies.



F*** ME I’M FAMOUS by David Guëtta 

David Guetta first made his imprint on the island in the late 90s. Already a regular on the dancefloor, he was invited to play on the infamous Space Ibiza terrace. He also ran a few parties at Amnesia under the name Ohlala!.



He would personally hand out flyers on the beaches to promote his early performances in the early days. But in 2003, when he started F*** ME I’M FAMOUS, the Parisian DJ, producer, and songwriter had already started his meteoric rise both in Ibiza and worldwide.

His residency brought glamour, exclusivity, and one of the hottest productions to the island with a crowd made up of rock stars, top models, fashion designers, and jet setters. He introduced posh VIP appeal to the nightclub scene of the White Isle.

In 2019, Guetta decided to move the iconic party brand to Hï Ibiza after starting a partnership with its sister venue in 2016, hosting the open-air party BIG by David Guetta at Ushuaïa Ibiza.

Even after becoming a global success story, Guetta continues to curate his sexy and provocative shows in Ibiza and beyond.











Carl Cox: THE REVOLUTION

In 1985 Carl Cox, his then-girlfriend, and his sister Pamela came to Ibiza for the first time with a recently purchased Fiat Panda that they also slept in. They had no idea where they were headed, but the bright lights of San Antonio drew him in. The little money he had was spent on one epic night at Amnesia, and despite being broke, it changed his life.

Carl was already becoming a key figure in the Acid house and rave parties in the UK and quickly fell in love with the island's music, culture, and sunny weather. Carl returned to Ibiza every year, sometimes to party and others to DJ. He became a staple of the scene and finally got a residency at Space Ibiza in 2001, helping establish the venue as one of the greatest clubs in the world. His party CARL COX: THE REVOLUTION was at the forefront of the Ibiza scene for 15 consecutive years and became the most successful residency in the island’s history.

Carl has proven his love for playing music, breaking tunes, and celebrating life as a dance music pioneer, the king of techno, Intec label owner, a magnetic personality, and an all-time favorite in Ibiza. Although his relationship with Space Ibiza ended when the club sadly closed its doors in 2016, he remained attached to the island.

Cox launched PURE CARL COX a year later at Privilege. In 2018, he played the One Night Stand party at Amnesia, Pacha, and DC-10 and brought Resistance (his lauded partnership with Ultra Music Festival) to Privilege in 2019.

The British icon continues to be one of the most in-demand DJs, with countless festival and club appearances every year. Yet, seeing him in Ibiza continues to be a singular experience.



COCOON by Sven Väth

Sven Väth arrived in Ibiza on holiday when he was 16, and it changed his life. When he returned to Germany, he realized that he wanted to become a DJ. His career began in the ’80s, and as techno arrived in Berlin, he led the revolution.



Sven imagined his COCOON concept after La Fura dels Baus (a Spanish theatrical company) came to Berlin in 1994. The show’s hanging cocoons filled with water inspired him to pour his money into a brand that represented metamorphosis and change.



The techno night soon became Amnesia's flagship party and became a paradise for all the ravers on the island who loved techno. When the 2019 season closed, COCOON had been on the island for 20 years. Its influence on the sound of Ibiza is immeasurable. He's built a strong community of cocooneros, revolutionized afterparty culture, and elevated the music careers of many DJs such as Richie Hawtin, Luciano, Loco Dice, Marco Carola, and Ricardo Villalobos. Without Cocoon, dance music in Ibiza might look completely different today.



FLOWER POWER

The most deep-rooted party on the island is FLOWER POWER, a concept that recreates the magic of the 60s. This slogan originated in California as a peaceful movement against the war in Vietnam, where flowers represented an iconic symbol of non-violence, love, and harmony.



Ibiza was home to many hippie communities who found an ideal place to rebel in opposition to societal norms and feel free. The island has celebrated nearly four decades of this gathering, where people of all ages wear clothes adorned with intricate details, vibrant colors, and real flowers. It’s all soundtracked to the anthems of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Music from The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, and Led Zeppelin transport you to another era. In 2022 the genuine party returns to Pacha for its 40th season.



These are just a few successful residencies that have shaped Ibiza’s party scene. Ibiza now has over 20 superclubs, tons of day clubs, nightclubs, hundreds of beach clubs, and many more places to enjoy music. But the essence of these parties and DJs will never be lost.



Explore Ibiza's Longest Running Residencies 

Ibiza enters a new era in the final week of April after two years of hiatus. Its most anticipated party season kicks off in the last days of the month, and below are some recommendations to keep you dancing from day till night!



While Ibiza is known for its electric nightlife, events happening during the sunlight hours of opening week are not to be missed, including one of the first major global dance music industry gatherings since the start of the pandemic, the International Music Summit Ibiza. It kicks off on Wednesday, April 27-29, at Destino Pacha Ibiza Resort. You can check the full program and speakers here.







The Summit Grand Finale party takes place on Friday, April 29, at 5 pm inside the ancient walls of Ibiza’s old town, Dalt Vila. This one-of-a-kind event is something that every electronic music fan should experience once in their life and has taken on the role of the official start to the Ibiza season. The line-up features fantasy back-to-back pairings (Jamie Jones and The Blessed Madonna will carry out a b2b closing set) as well as stand-out solo sets:









On Saturday, April 30, Defected Records will also be taking over the Dalt Vila fort in partnership with IMS, delivering an outstanding list of talents. Honey Dijon, Bob Sinclar, Danny Tenaglia, Louie Vega, and more join forces for an epic afternoon of house music. 





Tip: Don’t miss these because IMS events are the only few parties at this historic location during the season!



Two of Ibiza’s most iconic clubs open their doors on Friday, April 29



Pacha will be celebrating its Grand Opening party with Solomun all night long to take you on a deep, hypnotic, and underground music journey. The night under The Cherries roof promises to be memorable as Pacha unveils its new look. This is its third and most extensive round of refurbishment since the “Casa Payesa” first opened in 1973.





In parallel, Amnesia will host the Pyramid pre-season event the same day from 7 pm, offering cutting-edge technology, lighting, and performances.

The superclub is famed for its sunrise session on the terrace, when the sun streams through the windows, illuminating the entire crowd. Here in Ibiza, we love to dance as the sunbeams through Amnesia’s terrace, so when you come to the island, you have to experience this moment!



You’ll dance from dusk till dawn to the rhythm of a great variety of house and techno sounds by Luciano, Paul Woolford b2b Richy Ahmed, Marco Faraone, and Syreeta. And for the techno lovers, the main room brings Amelie Lens, Ben Klock, Airod, and Luca Donzelli to the game.



Last but not least, Ushuaïa and Hï Ibiza join forces on Saturday, April 30, to present Better Together, a day and night musical marathon featuring performances by many of the biggest names in electronic music.



Ushuaïa is a hotel and a spectacular open-air venue located in Platja d’en Bossa that operates with parties from midday till midnight. Paul Kalkbrenner has a long history with the openings, and he has once again been invited back, joined by fellow live act Stephan Bodzin, ARTBAT, Kölsch, Mathame, and Layla Benitez will complete the line-up.





Across the road, Hï Ibiza will open at 11 pm with some of the greatest female talents on the scene, such as Anfisa Letyago, Chloé Caillet, and Charlotte de Witte, and other heavy-weights like Adam Beyer, Chris Liebing, Damian Lazarus, Black Coffee, and The Martinez Brothers, creating together with the crowd a unique celebration of music and human connection.







To top off Ibiza’s most anticipated opening season, the colossal week wraps up with a host of lush music celebrations on Sunday, May 1, including Defected Festival at Amnesia, Loco Dice all night long at Pacha, and the legendary Duran Duran in concert at Ushuaïa.





Aside from being the party island of the world, Ibiza is home to over 80 different beaches and calas, so there is no better way to begin a proper Ibiza listing than with a beach suggestion!



Las Salinas is one of the most idyllic beaches on the island and a popular meeting point for tourists and celebrities. The beach is in the middle of a natural park of the same name, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 1999. Its landscape is surrounded by pine woods, free of buildings and hotels, and known for its soft golden sand, crystal clear waters, trendy restaurants, and beach clubs. It offers a paid parking area with clean facilities and shaded bays.





In the middle of this 1.5-kilometer-long beach, there is a chiringuito (Spanish for a small beachside bar or restaurant) called Jockey Club. It is a family-friendly beach bar open year-round. The atmosphere at Jockey Club is uplifting and relaxed yet glamorous. Among some of its services, this beach bar stands out for its Mediterranean cuisine with fresh and quality ingredients, locally crafted beers, and cocktails made with seasonal fruit. There is also a little boutique where you can find some accessories and beachwear. It is an excellent choice for relaxing on a sunbed and ordering food while gazing out to sea or sitting on its terrace enjoying the Balearic beats and DJs playing live sets during summer.






Gray Area Guide to Ibiza Opening Weekend

New York DJ, CID, has steadily made a name for himself throughout the years. He’s an in-demand producer with a love and passion for dance music that’s been evident since day one. His dedication and talent are evident with each passing release. He’s a two-time Grammy nominee in the Best Remix Recording category, and in 2014 he won for his co-production of Lana Del Rey’s “Summertime Sadness” remix.

But how much do you really know about CID? Did you know that his name is actually Cid, Carlos Cid to be exact? Cid’s his last name and he grew up with people calling him just that, so it seemed apropos for a DJ name. He’s of Spanish descent, with his family hailing from Spain, but he was born in Queens, New York. He started DJing at the tender age of 12, taking buses throughout the New York boroughs to various record shops so he could spend the day crate digging.

His aptitude for music was clear, even at such a young age and he caught the attention of top NY DJs who were intrigued by him and his enthusiasm. That led him to hone his craft and soon he joined the ranks of those top DJs. He can totally hold his own against top tier talent, yet he, like anyone else, still has those artists he looks up to and one day hopes to work with. His ultimate dream collaboration? Daft Punk, because of course it is. Green Velvet, Riton, Claude VonStroke, Benny Blanco, and Calvin Harris also made that list, which shows game recognizes game. 

And game really does recognize game, as CID’s talents have led him to where he is today; fully appreciated and working with some of the biggest names in dance music. He’s got so many collaborations under his belt, we thought we’d pick some of our favorites and list them here for you.

Catch CID live at Quantum Brooklyn on April 3. Tickets are available now.



Alex Adair - Make Me Feel Better (Don Diablo & CID Remix)

First up is frequent collaborator Don Diablo. Together, he and CID have teamed up for countless remixes together, each more fire than the last, it’s kind of hard to just pick one. In my mind, the remix deserving the most of recognition is “Make Me Feel Better” by English producer, DJ and remixer Alex Adair. Released in 2015, this track was THE hit of the summer. It was a global phenomenon, played on many major radio stations. With its infectious sound, energetic vocals and quality mastering, it’s no wonder “Make Me Feel Better” is a certified anthem.

Kaskade & CID - Us

Also making this list is Kaskade, as he and CID collaborated together for not one, but TWO tracks, “Us” and “Sweet Memories.” For this instance, we’ll feature the earlier track, “Us.” Released in 2015, “Us” is a song about intimacy and young love. The ethereal lyrics, beautiful melody and chunky basslines make for one upbeat song. The official video for this song really fits the lyrics, bringing so much hope while depicting a raw, real-life love story of a family in the Philippines. The harmony, energy and overall vibe truly make for one feel-good song.

CID - Secrets ft. Conrad Sewell

CID started 2017 off with a bang as he teamed up with Australian singer/songwriter Conrad Sewell for their collaborative track “Secrets.” This stirring single touches on the feelings that secrets can evoke: the willingness to do almost anything for another person, sometimes even at the detriment of yourself.  The video breathes new life into the lyrics sung by Sewell, telling the story of a lover experiencing hardship, who, despite all that, keeps their promises as best they can.  Together, Sewell and CID create a song that is reminiscent of The Weeknd, and find just the perfect balance between delicate lyrics and bouncy house bass.

Galantis - Pillow Fight (Galantis & CID VIP Mix)

Galantis' music puts smiles on people’s faces. This Swedish duo has incredible talent and a vast expertise of dance-pop. Their 2017 song, “Pillow Fight” is a euphoric anthem already on its own,  so when CID was brought on, he helped take it to that next level with a VIP remix. This rendition leans even more into dance music, adding the original male vocal, epic build-ups and heavier bass. This song is the ideal creation for these two, showcasing their connection in the best possible way.

CID - Believer ft. CeeLo Green

2017 was a big year for CID and collaborations. This time, he teamed up with Cee-Lo Green for “Believer,” a cheerful, hopeful song all about love. “Believer” debuted to the world at a time when faith in humanity was at an all time low, and it’s inspirational and catchy sound, plus the animated video full of imagination, was just what the world needed. Trust me when I say this song has the perfect beat to tap your feet. If you’re needing a mood booster or a little more positivity in your life, “Believer” is just the song for you.

CID & VINNE - Take Your Place

For this next collaboration, CID teams up with Brazilian Bass master Vinne for 2018’s “Take Your Place,” released on Tiesto’s label, Musical Freedom. CID himself describes this song as a ‘dancefloor weapon’ and let me tell you, he’s not wrong. This track has it all- trippy vocals, glitched out beats, a sick drop and dirty dirty basslines. It’s the quintessential blend of styles and really showcases just what these two talented producers can really do.

CID x Riddim Commission - ME N U 

Riddim Commission and CID came together in 2019 for “Me N U,” which samples the classic Cassie track, “Me & U.” This collaboration really melded both Riddim Commission’s and CID’s styles entirely, what with CID’s ability to stand out and Riddim Commission’s ability of mashing together different genres. Released on CID’s Night Service Only label, this song has a bouncy melody, big basslines and just an all around good vibe. Perfect for CID’s label, “Me N U” is the ultimate dancefloor banger and will instantly put a smile on your face as soon as the first note hits.

Dombresky & CID - R.E.A.L

In 2021, Dombresky linked up with CID and gave us “R.E.A.L,” a song that walks the fine line between tech house and funky house. Using old-school hip-hop samples, “R.E.A.L is nostalgia wrapped in house music. The familiar melodies and memorable lyrics are like an old, long lost friend. Couple that with thumping bass and the innovative take on the classics, and you’ve got yourself a banger.

Lana Del Rey vs Cedric Gervais 'Summertime Sadness' Remix

And of course we couldn’t make a list about CID collaborations without including the one that led to his first Grammy.  In 2014, Cedric Gervais was commissioned to remix Lana Del Rey’s “Summertime Sadness” and CID helped co-produce it. Obviously it was a match made in heaven and the remix was a great success. CID and Gervais took Del Rey’s melancholic track and turned it into a club hit. The contrast between Del Rey’s haunting lyrics and allure, and the exultant incorporation of house make for a unique sound that is sure to destroy dancefloors.

10 Must Listen CID  Collabs

The dance music capital of the world is about to begin one of its most awaited seasons ever. After a two-year hiatus, the mega clubs on the White Isle are announcing their opening events. So start planning that dream holiday and pack your dancing shoes because Ibiza is back!

The Mediterranean breeze and mild temperatures make Ibiza a great choice year-round. The mecca for hedonists has been the ultimate summer clubbing destination since the mid-1980s, when the Balearic island became a music paradise. 

Yet, the musical footprint of the island dates back even further. The hippies arrived in the '60s, bringing the psychedelic beats of the era. Some of the island's most prominent clubs were born a decade later. 

Pacha Ibiza anchored the scene with its opening in 1973. Amnesia followed in 1976. Privilege (now the world's biggest nightclub) opened as Ku Club in 1978. And by 1986, the legendary Space Ibiza transformed Ibiza from a hidden gem into a clubber's paradise. 

By the '80s, the big raves arrived. The '90s ushered in the growth of Balearic Beat. And since the turn of the Millenium, Ibiza has been a mecca for everything from disco to techno. Ibiza is a magnet for clubbers and music lovers from all over the globe.

This season is promising not just for party goers but also for the entertainment and hospitality industries. Many bars and restaurants on the island are already open. Beach clubs and hotels will welcome guests from the beginning of April. The pre-season excitement is palpable throughout the island. Happiness and positive vibes permeate the air as everyone is more than ready to embrace a new music era in Ibiza after two consecutive years of postponements. 

To start Ibiza's 2022 summer season, the long-delayed premier platform for business, culture, and education in global electronic music, International Music Summit, will host its thirteenth edition with the theme "In Pursuit Of Purpose." 

IMS has long been the traditional start of the summer season. From April 27-29, a series of keynotes, workshops, and lectures will be led by thought leaders in dance music, including IMS founder Pete Tong. For those in the industry, it's an excellent opportunity to network and build connections. 

The Grand Finale party in the ancient walls of Ibiza's old town, Dalt Vila, will close the conference out on April 29.

Ibiza is almost ready to celebrate the return of large-scale music events and reunite the global community of music fans. Live music returns with a  very special concert from Duran Duran. The famous 80's new wave band made up of Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes, John Taylor, and Roger Taylor will perform together in Ibiza for the first time in 30 years.

Ibiza’s Most Anticipated Season Kicks off With a Massive Opening Weekend 

Quite literally the holy grail of house music, if you’ve yet to visit the motherland that is Ibiza, we may have the perfect opportunity for you to do so. While mid-October marks the end of summer and the typical closure of clubs through the winter months, the beautiful Baleric island has a surprise in store for us this year.

NYE is usually a low-key festivity on the White Isle. However, this year is quite the opposite. Some of its most iconic venues will reopen the doors for an epic New Years celebration like no other. And we’ve got four exclusive events for you to pick from, so let’s get into it.



Pyramid | Amnesia | Friday, December 30

On Friday, December 30, from 8 pm-6 am, Amnesia and in-house brand Pyramid celebrate another mold-breaking year with The Last One of 2022.

For those not so familiar, Amnesia is the clubbers club, Ibiza’s OG mega venue, and one steeped in history. The enormous dance factory opened in 1976 before house music became its bread and butter. Ever since, it has remained one of the island’s most sought-after venues for DJs and music fanatics alike, who travel from all over the world to experience it in all its glory.

It’s essentially a warehouse consisting of two humongous rooms. The Main Room is a dark, tempting chamber, and the Terrace, an expansive glass-roofed dance hall that fills with light at sunrise.

The legendary club has hosted some of the island’s most beloved events, including Sven Vath’s Cocoon, Music On, elrow, and Paradise. Its eclectic programming attracts massive crowds every day of the week in the peak summer season.

As for Pyramid, it is an original Amnesia night boasting a packed-out dancefloor every Sunday. This comes down to its sole focus on the music, curating line-ups that no other Ibiza night offers.
The fiesta hones in on minimal and techno artists, having invited some huge names to the famous booth this year alone. Friday, December 30, Pyramid reels in yet another massive line-up for a proper 2022 send-off, including Cuartero, Deborah De Luca, Enzo Siragusa, Stella Bossi, and 2vilas. You don’t want to miss this.



Music On | Pacha | Sunday, January 1, 2023

Pacha is considered Ibiza’s most prized possession. From its beginning as the first superclub of Ibiza, it’s now a global enterprise with clubs in various countries worldwide. It’s become more than just a party. Pacha has established itself as the most affluent clubbing brand in the world.

First founded in 1973 as a traditional Ibizan finca, it is now a sophisticated, hi-tech party venue worshiped by locals and tourists. Many of the biggest DJs in the world call it home, with Pacha renowned for adding a hint of VIP vitality to the ordinary clubbing experience.

The club hosts an array of sought-after parties every day of the week in summer, with one, in particular, standing out from the crowd—Italian adonis Marco Carola’s renowned Music On.

On NYE, Carola returns to the island for this one-off fiesta. Fellow tech house mastermind Andrea Oliva will join him for six hours of mouth-watering electronic music. Expect plenty of rolling groovers, with the prestigious dance floor filled with the most avid house music fans.

A New Year’s countdown at the iconic venue is a rarity guaranteed for the history books.



elrow - Nowmads | Amnesia | New Year's Day

To say this party is one of a kind would be an understatement. Wildly explosive decor, outlandish costumes and makeup, and larger-than-life production make elrow the epitome of an immersive outerworld experience, where reality becomes a distant memory.

The colorful extravaganza has traveled all over the globe and remains unrivaled wherever it lands. Think confetti cannons, flying inflatables, and jaw-dropping theatrics. Both DJs and ravers highly respect the Ibiza staple. Not only does the brand attract a hefty crowd at every party, its line-ups never fail to miss a beat. Whether at a festival or a club, elrow reigns in a host of leading DJ talent, making it like no other party in the world.

While renowned for its pumping tech house sound, elrow line-ups always represent the underground properly. This time, elrow’s resident DJs Toni Varga, Marc Maya, and Bastian Bux, join an array of international stars, including Adam Beyer, Arielle Free, Eats Everything, Fleur Shore, Francisco Allendes, Ilario Alicante, Manda Moor, Marco Faraone, Mason Collective, Matthias Tanzmann, and Silvie Lotto.

The theme for this Balearic bonanza is Nowmads and will roll for a solid 12 hours from 5 pm - 5 am.



Circoloco | DC10 | Sunday, January 1, 2023

Lastly, Circoloco at DC10—the club that defines what the island represents - authentic underground music returns for one more stomping day-to-night event. From humble beginnings to becoming the most coveted house music venue on the planet, DC10 has come a long way since its opening in 1999.



Quite literally a shack at the end of the island’s airport runway, it has blossomed into a quirky inside-out venue that has become famous for its off-beat clown face logo, iconic red walls, and infrared light beams that shine onto the crowds in the garden.


Purposely, the name comes from the McDonnell Douglas DC10 aircraft, as the al fresco dancefloor is the island’s best plane-watching spot.

Without a doubt, the venue’s most synonymous party is Circoloco. One known for its hedonistic nature and wild day-to-night Monday sessions. You may think that this is an odd day to host one of the island’s biggest nights, but it started a global clubbing revolution, shaping modern club culture.

On New Year’s Day (Sunday, January 1), from 6 pm-6 am, a pool of resident DJs and special guests will fly in to perform. So far, the line-up includes big dons Archie Hamilton, Cassy, Dennis Cruz, Sweely, and Tania Valcano. Just wow!





There we have it, your New Year’s trip to The White Isle sorted. Not only is it a beautiful place to visit all year round, it really is the epicenter of house music. Be warned. Once you go, you may never come back!
