Now a global franchise (with a really cool new venue in Macau 🇲🇴 might I add), Pacha 🍒 needs little introduction. But the real OG is still the club in Ibiza. With over 40 years of party planning under its belt, Pacha Ibiza has built up a millions of followers who return every year hungry for more 👅

Pacha is the real deal whether you want to go in on entry or grab a VIP 💰table plus it’s cheaper than Amnesia (well just about anything is 😂). It’s best known for House & Techno 🔊 (as is most of ibiza lol) with the Main Room having seen some unreal parties over the years including the legendary (and maybe even soon to reunite) Swedish House Mafia 🤘

We’re excited just thinking about it 😁 Here are our 3 favourite nights to show you why Pacha is the place to get down and party this summer.

Flower Power 🌸

Start your week with a BANG 💥 and head straight to Flower Power. With its free spirit vibes, iconic 60s graphics and insane costumes, Flower Power goes right back to Ibiza’s hippy routes 🤘This night was established wayyy before Ibiza evolved into the world’s clubbing capital and is a firm favourite with islanders — aka. those in the know 🤐

Having kicked off on May 30th and going on until September 26th, it’s now held on Mondays with a totally new show as well as costumes and decor. Change is never a bad thing! 😁 DJ Piti, a man who holds the legendary status of longest running residency on the island, will also be joined for the very first time by a host of international artists. Can you feeeeel it?!

Pacha 🍒 is known for its glitz and glamour but Monday showcases a less serious side and has become an island classic. Personally I just love its hippy vibe and the promoters for dancing around on Playa D’en Bossa!💃

F*ck me I’m Famous

Running for 19 weeks (yeah I know… long time right!) from June 2nd until October 6th and often selling out 🎟 weeks in advance, this Thursday night party has developed a cult following on the White Isle.

It’s easily the most “accessible” party for people looking to dip their toe into dance music 💃 for the first time on the island (as I did when I first went)! Guetta has built a world renowned brand around the night so it’s definitely worth a visit.

We love the crowd this night attracts but feel the music is too mainstream for the island’s die hards 😎 For those looking for that VIP 💎 experience, FMIF has the biggest VIP area of all and sells out without fail every week of the summer so grab those tables quick 😉

Expect to see all stars ⭐️ like Nicky Romero and Afrojack swinging by to join Guetta on the decks. Island favourite Spanish DJ/ producer JP Candela will also be returning as Resident all in all making Pacha off the chain 👍

Solomun + 1

It’s hard to leave Pacha 🍒 when the nights are this good. I should know, I’ve changed my flight every time i’ve been 😂 Sunday’s are no exception- in fact it’s our all-time Waffle favourite.

The Bosnian-born, German-raised DJ Solomun returns to Sunday nights for the fourth consecutive year with his Solomun + 1 concept. He was also crowned DJ of the Year by Mixmag at the end of last year’s season. It’s no wonder every Sunday is a full house with people fighting outside Pacha’s VIP entrance to grab a table last minute!

The season kicked off on May 22nd alongside Butch and will end with Solomun going solo at the closing party on October 9th. The chosen few picked to play with Solomun include music legends Richie Hawtin, Sven Väth, Joseph Capriaiti and Pete Tong. That’s one hell of a lineup 🔥

As usual, Solomun relocates his DJ booth to the middle of the dance floor to get more in touch with the crowd. The atmosphere will be electric ⚡️ and if you’re only going to one night at Pacha - make sure this is it. In fact, we’re going again this week for Solomun+1 😂

Here’s one of his latest sessions to get you in the mood ⬇️
