Tuesday


Carl Cox@Space Tuesdays
Traditionally a quiet night on the Island, as most clubs cannot compete with the excellent Carl Cox at Space, now an institution on the Island. Cox always reserves his best sets for Space and its a party with a brilliant atmosphere. House Music with a touch of Techno is the music style. This season, The Revolution Recruits party, will be the Hot Ticket on Island for Tuesday nights. A great tip is to buy the Pukka Up Boat Party ticket, which includes a three hour boat party, free drinks, transfers to Space and VIP entrance into the Carl Cox night. The Pukka Up/Space Ticket sails from San Antonio and Playa Den Bossa on Tuesdays and Fridays. Early Bird tickets are now on sale for only €45 now at club_dates. Flower Power@Pacha is a popular, glam, retro/hippy party with rock, disco and 80's music as its theme. Early bird tickets for the boat party sell out fast so be on the ball for this one.

Wednesday

Ibiza Rocks, is the premier Live music party in Ibiza on a Wednesday. Its an evening  party where doors open at 5pm. Resident DJ's warm up a young festival crowd before the main act performs live on stage at 9pm. High energy atmosphere and a real up for it crowd. Tinie Tempah, Madness and Biffy Clyro were highlights of last seasons mayhem. Ibiza Rocks is an unique party and well worth checking out when in Ibiza. Erick Morillo at Pacha with the Subliminal brand, is the place to be after the Ibiza Rocks party, which closes at midnight. Ushuaia are expected to confirm Swedish House Mafia for their 5pm to midnight outdoor party and this will prove a popular party also. For Underground fans, The Zoo Project@Gala Night, has a cool crowd which continues the party at Underground in San Rafel.

Tipped for Big Things in 2012
A night which is owned by David Guetta and his Fu#k Me Im Famous party at Pacha for the last number of years. One of Ibiza's most popular parties, which sells out fast on the Island. Early booking for tickets is strongly advisable. Cream@Amnesia is another Ibiza institution and this popular trance party has a strong following in Ibiza with its legions of loyal fans. A party that is expected to explode this summer is Kehakuma@Space.

Friday

SupermartXe@Privilege A typically Spanish affair full of passion, flamboyance and style. Its all about the show and the fiesta atmosphere and attracts a Gay friendly crowd, so expect to see fit and scantily clad bodies all showing off their style and sexuality. The Fiesta Del Aqua@Es Paradis is another Ibiza institution. A unique and fun party, where its wet and wild atmosphere is enhanced by its dancefloor turning into a swimming pool by the end of the night.
