Pacha, Ibiza

Expect to pay from 40€ to 60€ for most parties, some like F*** Me I'm Famous will go a lot higher. The price increases as the island gets busier and the parties get more popular. A Vodka Lemon costs approx. 15€ and a beer 12€.

Prices on the door can be up to 20€ more expensive than presale, so buy your tickets in advance! Also, because of the limited supply, physical ticket sales on the island almost being auctioned to the highest bidder. There are a limited number of online tickets available for each night through Spotlight.

When Pacha first opened across the bay from the bustling bars of the port area some opined Ricardo Urguell's creation wouldn't last because it was too far away from the action. They must feel stupid now.

Today Pacha is surrounded by apartment blocks, bars, a casino and hotels including El Hotel, which Pacha made their own in 2003. The famous old finca has grown from being a deserted country house to becoming the most iconic clubbing name in the world, with more than 20 franchises all around the world.

Very much the place to be seen during the 70s and 80s, through the 90s, foreign promoters like Ministry of Sound, Made In Italy and Renaissance really transformed the club's direction. Under the guidance of Creative Director, Danny Whittle, has achieved almost unthinkable success through pop star like DJs holding parties that have caused unprecedented scenes as far as clubbing in Ibiza goes.

Pacha is a spectacular club, a luxurious and almost palatial feel with an antique and exotic charm runs through it's decor and design. In terms of layout, Pacha just keeps on giving and it'll probably take you 5 or 6 time to truly find your bearings. Even then we're sure you won't have made it to the Funky Room. 

Through the entrance and you've already got several options. To your left, almost behind you is Sweet where you can hear more commerical and Spanish music, whilst next to that is the entrance to the restaurant. A little further on and there is a door on your right that leads to the Global Room, with it's lounge feel and tiered seating.

If you head straight on from the entrance, you eventually access the club's Main Room, flanked by an abundance of VIP tables, which dominate the room. To your right, you'll see the DJ console and notice at least two other levels of the club higher up and around the sides of the club.

Where next?! You can take two different routes to your right and keep going up, until you come out an extensive Terrace area. If you follow this round you eventually come to the gem that is the Funky Room, a real treat. Through the Funky Room and you're back out into the Main Room.

That's only a short whizz around the club and doesn't do any justice to the charm of the place.

Avenida Ocho de Agosto, near the Marina in Ibiza Town. 10 - 15 minutes walk from the Port, depending on the quantity of pre-club drinks consumed! Under 10€ in a taxi.
