New parties, new energy, new Ibiza

From hip-hop icons and trance revivals to fresh residencies and revivals to fresh residencies and underground takeovers, these are these are the new parties shaping Ibiza 2026.

When UNVRS opened in 2025, it redefined what a nightclub could be. Within a year, it was named DJ Mag’s No.1 Club in the World, thanks to its unrivalled line-ups, cutting-edge technology and boundary-pushing production. This summer, the story evolves again, with Carl Cox, Fisher and a host of new concepts ensuring the world’s most talked-about club remains firmly at the centre of the conversation. The novelty may have faded, but the magic hasn’t. We know the labyrinth now, making every turn, hidden corner and sunrise moment part of Ibiza’s most extraordinary playground.

When you’re already home to the world’s No.1 club, standing still isn’t really an option. Rather than relying on past successes, Hï Ibiza has shaken up its weekly programme for 2026, introducing a wave of new talent and fresh concepts across both rooms. The familiar blockbuster energy remains, but this year’s line-up feels broader, bolder and more unpredictable than ever. In an era where Ibiza can sometimes feel set in its ways, Hï is proving that reinvention is still possible.

The old adage, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” perfectly sums up Ushuaïa’s approach for summer 2026, with the vast majority of its flagship residencies remaining firmly in place. Calvin Harris’s twin weekly spectacles and David Guetta’s blockbuster Monday night sessions are once again set to be among the island’s hottest tickets. Yet amid the familiar favourites, there’s plenty to celebrate elsewhere.

The return of Swedish House Mafia to a weekly residency feels particularly significant, offering the perfect way to close out the weekend before Ibiza resets for another week of action.

SUNDAY

Swedish House Mafia
(June 28 – Sep 13)

What Danny Whittle has achieved at Chinois is nothing short of remarkable. The Ibiza veteran has transformed the glamorous Marina Botafoch venue into one of the island’s most respected clubbing destinations, blending world-class programming with an unmistakably sophisticated atmosphere. The biggest headline this winter was the arrival of Defected and Major League DJz, joining established favourites such as Claptone and Bedouin to create what promises to be a standout summer for the club.

MONDAY

La Troya
(until Oct 5)

TUESDAY

Anjunabeats
(June 30 / Sep 8 / 15)

THURSDAY

Defected
(until Oct 8)

FRIDAY

Major League DJz presents Echoes of Tomorrow
(until Oct 9)

We love it when a venue surprises the island with a leftfield booking, so when Pacha announced hip-hop heavyweight 50 Cent for June 25, the NATIV office erupted. It is exactly the sort of move that reminds everyone why Ibiza remains the world’s most exciting nightlife destination. Elsewhere, Pacha looks primed for another stellar season, with Tino Piontek, aka Purple Disco Machine, proving the pick of the bunch – or should that be the pick of the cherries?

MONDAY

Sonny Fodera
(until Oct 5)

TUESDAY

Vintage Culture presents Affairs
(June23 & 30)

THURSDAY

Pure Pacha presents Purple Disco Machine
(until Oct 1)

SATURDAY

Flower Power with Roger Sanchez
(until Aug 29)

You can usually tell if a club is heading for a big summer by the crowds it pulls in May. We were down the front at some of Cova Santa’s early-season parties and the numbers were seriously impressive. And that Wyld event in the San José hills? What a night. The Cave has never felt so right.

MONDAY

Alish presents UNLISH
(July 13/Sep 7)

SAT / WED

Sam Divine presents 555
(Aug 22, Sep 9/23)

Ibiza wouldn’t be Ibiza without Amnesia. That’s why the club’s resurgence in its 50th anniversary year has become one of the biggest talking points of the pre-season. Few venues can claim to have shaped the island’s nightlife culture quite like Amnesia, whose influence stretches back to the birth of the Balearic movement. Credit must go to Neil Evans and his team, who have pulled out all the stops for summer 2026, delivering a programme packed with major new additions, exciting residencies and headline-grabbing one-off events.

MONDAY

Kettama presents Steel City
(July 6/13)

WEDNESDAY

Ibiza Trance

Down in San Antonio, Eden continues to fly the flag for both underground talent and headline acts. One of this summer’s most intriguing additions is Charlie Sloth’s hip-hop extravaganza, bringing a fresh flavour to Ibiza’s ever-evolving nightlife landscape. The 23 Degrees series running until July 22 is also worth a look with some massive UK garage headz including MJ Cole and Flava D in da house.

WEDNESDAY

Garage Nation/DJ EZ/23 Degrees
(until Sep 23)

THURSDAY

Markus Schulz Open To Close
(until Sep 25)

FRIDAY

Charlie Sloth presents Fire In The Club
(until Sep 4)

SATURDAY

Cocorico presents GALACTICA
(until Sep 15)

Across the bay, the Truman Show is showing no signs of slowing down. OBeach continues to pull crowds by the thousand, while the dancefloor has become just as important as the pool itself, with some serious talent passing through over the summer. The secret? Fun. Pure and simple. No pretence, no attitude, just a venue that knows exactly what it is and delivers every single time. We’re still trying to work out how Armand is going to survive his debut!

MONDAY

Forward Motion / Zuva / Joel Corry / La Fiesta
(until Oct 5)

Love Juice with Armand Van Helden
(June 29)

THURSDAY

O Beach Music
(until Oct 1)

Alongside the arrival of UNVRS, perhaps the biggest Ibiza success story of 2025 was the emergence of 528. Once home to the wonderfully eccentric Zoo Project, the hilltop venue has been given a new lease of life under the stewardship of the Pikes and Ibiza Rocks team. And what a summer they have in store. New stages, upgraded sound and a carefully curated line-up of DJs combine to make 528 one of the season’s most exciting destinations – enough to leave even the most seasoned Ibiza veteran drooling.

Beatport Live
(Oct 4)

Anyone who turns their nose up at Ibiza and claims the island has lost its original spirit has probably never spent a day at Las Dalias before continuing on to Akasha after dark. If you haven’t ventured to the far reaches of the north-east yet, do yourself a favour and make the trip this summer. You’ll find generations mixing on the same dancefloor, authentic rhythms, a wonderfully free-spirited atmosphere and the kind of Balearic magic that first put Ibiza on the map.

TUESDAY

Borealis
(until Sep 29)

SUNDAY

Supernova x Do Not Sleep

One venue that certainly pulled its socks up last summer was Playa Soleil, the beachfront dance palace that continues to grow in stature with every passing season. The addition of the Bora Bora parties to the complex is sure to have those lucky enough to remember the legendary 1990s institution licking their lips in anticipation. Elsewhere, we’re loving the sound of Doumi San’s new NUSUN Sunday gathering. As one of the cre- ative forces behind Woomoon, he is always worth paying attention to.

Down on Cala Jondal, Blue Marlin continues to enjoy one of the best party locations on the planet. It was great to see Steve Lawler (now living in Miami) back behind the decks in June – check out also Stardust by Sarag every Wednesday through July, with house and tech delights from the label.

No Ibiza club guide would be complete without a quick detour to our little sister island, Formentera, where the stylish Tipic remains the go-to spot for proper disco dancing. There are few greater Balearic pleasures than losing yourself on the dancefloor until sunrise before hopping on the ferry back to Ibiza. Equal parts glamorous, hedonistic and slightly ridiculous, this is what summer is all about, baby.

MONDAY

Jungla
(until Aug 31)

TUESDAY

Loca Urban
(until Sep 1)

WEDNESDAY

Vidaloca
(until Aug 26)

SATURDAY

Lovin Formentera
(until Sep 6)

And finally, we head offshore for some nautical nonsense with the one and only Fat Tony. His brunch parties have been setting the UK on fire for years, and now Ibiza gets a weekly slice of the action. Setting sail from San Antonio every Sunday, Boat Brunch looks set to be an absolute riot – and exactly the sort of wonderfully unhinged idea that Ibiza does best.
