Did you know Ibiza has around 10 hours of sun a day? It also has 57 - yep, 57 - different beaches, and the average temperatures stay above 20 degrees for over eight months of the year. It's also home to some of the biggest, maddest, longest parties, with the world's leading DJs who were born to get the party started soundtracking it all.
We know you didn’t really need any convincing to head back out to Ibiza, but we thought we’d be that mate that reminds you just how unreal it is.
As the party capital of Europe, maybe even the world, there’s always loads on, and we can’t wait to get stuck into it again. And, seeing as you’re here, you probably feel the same way too. So let’s get planning! Here are the best events and music festivals in Ibiza.

When: Thursday 5th - Monday 9th October 2023
Where: Ibiza Rocks Hotel in Ibiza
2023 lineup: Scouting For Girls, Boyzlife, Martin Kemp (bak to the 80s set), Symphonic Ibiza, DJ Sammy, and more
If the thought of the crowds upon crowds of people filling the streets, clubs, and bars, and would prefer a more relaxed partying session in Ibiza, this one’s a great shout. Going down in October, the weather is still beautiful, but many of the crowd’s have gone home by this point.
Hosted at the Ibiza Rocks Hotel, a ticket to this festival with throwback names on the lineup also includes accommodation and access to the after-party. At Back To Ibiza, you can also kiss goodbye to expensive pints. A cold, fresh pint here will only knock you back about €5. Lovely.

Where: Carrer de les Alzines, 07800 Eivissa in Ibiza
If superclubs sound a bit intense with seas of thousands of people, perhaps Octan is more your vibe. Smaller than the huge Ibiza clubs, Octan provides a more intimate, personal experience. Promoting that raw, underground experience, the music offering here is diverse and spun by world-class artists, catering to many tastes while maintaining the quality you’d expect. Rave in the basement to loud music with its low ceiling, or head up to the rooftop terrace to catch some fresh air.

Where: Passeig Joan Carles I, 1, 07800 in Ibiza
During the day, Lio is the place to be for a Mediterranean-inspired dinner with a dazzling cabaret show. In the evening, it's transformed into a nightclub with gorgeous views. Many Ibiza clubs have lovely scenery, but Lio is like something from a movie with a view of its infinity pool, the bay, the Old Town, and the Dalt Vila. Theatrics and entertainment are part of the package here, with singers, dancers, acrobats, and DJs.

Ibiza’s original club, Amnesia was brought to life in the 70s. From the 80s up until the present day, Amnesia has remained one of the most influential and loved clubs on the island thanks to its unique open-roofed dancefloor that allows the morning sun to shine through, the incredible artists it books, killer soundsystem, and décor. Enough said!
Photo: Ibiza Rocks / Facebook.com
Where: Carrer de Cervantes, 27, 07820, Sant Antoni de Portmany in Ibiza
Ibiza Rocks is arguably one of the more diverse clubs in Ibiza, welcoming electronic and hip-hop artists to its stage. This year's musical offering includes Bru-C, ArrDee, Becky Hill, Craig David, Bugzy Malone, and Nathan Dawe. It also offers multi-genre parties with pop, DnB, indie, hip-hop, and more. As the name suggests, it’s also a hotel. When staying here, you can get involved with the daily pool parties from the comfort of your balcony. So even if you're super hungover, you can still get stuck in. There’s also the Ibiza Rocks Bar for food, drink, and sunset views.

Where: Carrer de la Murtra, 5, 07817 Sant Josep de sa Talaia in Ibiza
If you need a break from the electronic tunes, or if they were never your vibe to begin with, you might fancy a night at Swag. The music policy here is hip-hop, Latin, trap, house, and similar genres. It’s open every night and is the only club with an “urban” music focus. More intimate than most, the club can hold around 1,000 ravers, and has two VIP areas, and, of course, wild visuals to complement the tunes.

Where: Carretera las salinas, km 1, 07818 Sant Josep de sa Talaia in Ibiza
Don’t be surprised if you hear aeroplanes cruising overhead at DC10. Situated near the airport, planes often fly low over the venue's garden area as they head to the runway. Predominantly techno-focused, the club has some iconic nights (and days), including Circoloco, which dates back to 1999.
