Ibiza is well-regarded for its inclusive nature and for the outlandish shows it puts on every summer. Big, bold glamour and extravagance have their place at many parties, where dazzling outfits and sparkling personalities are celebrated and admired.
While there may not be any exclusively gay clubs nights or parties, there are many options that swing that way, encouraging the expression of fierceness and flamboyance, with a little extra hot sauce added when needed.
The island really is a garden of delights waiting to be discovered, and the clubbing scene is just one big party, where everyone is welcome to find their own place on the dancefloor.
Gay friendly clubs and parties
La Troya | Playa Soleil
Born in the 1970s, La Troya has long been playing the Ibiza scene, and playing it very well. It's a party that's been granted control of almost every club booth on the island, commanding a strong following of fans upon every dancefloor with its expressive choice of electronic music.
Priding itself on being one of the most authentic nights on the island, in 2025 its theatrical theme moves to the beautiful Playa d’en Bossa beach club, Playa Soleil. What do we predict from its first dance upon the sands this summer? A debut nothing short of explosive.
Led by Queen of the Night, Baby Marcelo, you can expect drag acts, dancers, and performers all expressing in the wildest way, and encouraging you to do exactly the same.
When: Wednesdays | June to September
Flash | Pikes Ibiza
A polysexual party where everyone’s welcome, Flash now enters its eighth season at the equally inclusive Pikes Ibiza.
Headed by Guy Williams, who some may remember from the UK scene and nights such as Flesh at the Hacienda and Trash in Sheffield, he has since created a long-standing and unmissable night of mischief at this notorious hillside party pusher. It's a magical union that clearly works, where disco divas dance to the tune of every House music genre; it's always kept fluid and fun with the Flash mob.
Opening Friday 9 May, they join hands with Homoelectric for the curtain raiser, laying on six further parties across the summer. There are no rules here, although some do apply; no racism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, and absolutely no c*nts.
When: Various dates throughout the season
Glitterbox | Hï Ibiza
As fierce as they come, Glitterbox returns for 2025 to rule over Sunday nights at Hï Ibiza. One of the few clubs big enough to hold the monumental energy it exudes, this night is all about the Disco and the drama.
Securing some of the biggest and eclectic list of artists every season, it's always a towering order of talent who shift gears once in the booth, and deliver a disco-edged catalogue of House tunes every week.
Here, sparkles, glitter, neon, and extravaganza with a capital ‘E’ is always encouraged. Why go out, if you aren’t going out-out? Brought to you by the team behind the famous House Music brand Defected, Glitterbox is the island's Sunday service that welcomes gay, straight, and every preference in between.
When: Sundays | May to October
Honey F#cking Dijon | Chinois Ibiza
A groundbreaking DJ, Honey Dijon is renowned for her cross-genre sets and unapologetic style, one that simply begs your presence on the dancefloor. After many flirtations with Ibiza over the years, and her Cozy residency in 2024, she lands back in full force this summer at Chinois Ibiza for an eight-week run.
A whole new energy comes with this summer's residency as she delivers a night that’s not to be messed with, Honey F#cking Dijon. With her roots in House music, she now shifts between genres, performing with the sole intention to liberate the dancefloor, and you should expect nothing less from your night with her.
Chinois Ibiza is an intimate club, one that has become prominent in its selection of powerful artists like this. Expect touches of glitz and glamour and an excuse to dress up, while masterfall artists take hold of the decks.
When: Thursdays | June to July
Santanna Oush | OuShe
The phrase ‘more energy, more passion’ always comes to mind when talking about Santanna Oush, although it would be hard to know if she could squeeze any more into her sets. A bouncy bundle of joy, she brings performance and personality into her genre-fluid OuShe nights, which have now picked up a packed pace across the island..
With female empowerment at the core of this collective, she handpicks a fresh band of talent to grab the dancefloor by the balls, and amp each party’s energy up a notch.
Her previous island playlist includes House of WOW, Pikes Ibiza, and Akasha Ibiza, with more to be announced for summer 2025.
Who is she? OuShe! And definitely one to watch this summer…
When: Dates throughout the summer
KINYXX | Cova Santa
After its first unveiling in the quiet green hills of San José in summer 2024, KINYXX returns to Cova Santa for a second round. Promoting a safe-space playground, where fetish meets fantasy, and love and respect rule. Although not solely an LGBTQIA event, it is open and free for all to join and express themselves
With House and Techno as the soundtrack, the party begins on the outside terrace-style dancefloor, when night falls and the crowd and energy are invited inside. Last summer, Richy Ahmed headlined for the one-off date, so you can expect to see other big names lead the party for this summer's release.
When: Saturday 17 May
Lola’s Club Ibiza
The first nightclub in Ibiza, Lola’s Club Ibiza opened its doors in 1965. For such an intimate Ibiza Town venue, they’ve certainly squeezed in a lot of heritage and hedonism over the years. Once known as a gay clubbing icon of Ibiza, now, they adopt more of a ‘come as you are’ approach, it's open to all preferences to find their way through its doors.
While it may be small in stature, it still manages to cram in all the best bits of a night for you to enjoy. Why not begin the party on the rooftop? With a cocktail in hand and stunning views of the city as night falls. Then make your way down to the heartbeat and party in the cavernous club until the early hours.
When: Open weekends in winter season and most nights during summer season
