Welcome to Ibiza - the clubbing capital of the world

[night·club] A place of entertainment open late at night, offering music, dancing and drinks, sometimes providing a floor show. A club or party where people dance to recorded pop music, often introduced by a DJ. Also called club, nightspot, disco and discotheque.

Nightclub, discotheque, club, nightspot or disco. Whatever you call your dancefloor of choice, Ibiza is synonymous with it. Though the island itself is steeped in history and culture, chances are if you’ve clicked on this page, it’s her famous nightlife taking your fancy right now. Or for the next few minutes to say the least…

Contrary to popular belief, it’s not just ‘superclubs’ that rule Ibiza - the island plays hosts to more clubbing-based venues than you can flick a DJ at, from sunset or port-side pre-parties to gritty, grungy local hangouts and more intimate upscale venues, plus the stunning beach clubs which have made more than a few clubbers miss their return flights home and inspired countless Ibiza summer soundtracks.

Well, they don’t call it the clubbing capital of the world for nothing!

Throughout the following section you'll find a guide to the best locations Ibiza has on offer, linking through to the lineups and events for each venue - with this much on offer in summer 2008, you'll need more than a fleeting holiday to fit it all in!
