When you visit San Antonio, there is one place you need to make sure to visit during your holiday trip. This place is Ocean Beach Ibiza, one of the best poolside venues on the White Isle

Renowned for its glamorous vibe and VIP feel, the seaside venue has a jam-packed season at the ready. With daily events for heat-seeking tourists throughout the summer, the myriad parties cater to those who wish to add an element of luxury to their holiday.

The venue is famous for its sunbed service and large-scale performance productions, both of which are of the highest quality. The DJs and live acts bring a variety of music styles, from pop and chilled vibes to the poolside, always the perfect summer soundtrack.

With the season fast approaching, we bring you all the exciting events Ocean Beach Ibiza has announced to date in one article. Read on to find out which date is the perfect one for you.


For early-bird partiers

Ocean Beach provides Ibiza partygoers plenty of dates from which to choose. The first chance you have is the soft opening party on 27 April. As the temperature continue rising in May, Poolside Sessions take off from 28 April. Both parties are a chance to soak up the sun for next to nothing as selected dates are free entry. Ocean Beach is also hosting a date for the little ones with the Mini Party on 5 May, a special event which caters to kids and proceeds from tickets go to APNEEF, an Ibizan children's charity.


The Official Opening

Officially kicking the season off on 18 May, expect an Ocean Beach Opening extravaganza like no other with DJs spinning the hottest clubs tracks whilst performers dazzle you with their acrobatics. With the season just beginning to heat up, it's the perfect time to get outdoors and into the sun. The opening will be the ultimate welcome party signalling that summertime is finally here. That's definitely reason to celebrate with a cocktail or two at Ocean Beach.


Hedonistic Mondays with Hed Kandi

The daytime vibes of Hed Kandi embody the Ocean Beach spirit to a T. With soulful house music and a colourful aura, it's no wonder that Hed Kandi is among the favourites on Ibiza holidays. The British Hed Kandi brand starts their season on 28 May and plays every Monday for 19 weeks until 1 October.

You have loads of opportunities to visit this outdoor disco paradise throughout the summer months. While the line-up has yet to be announced, you can be sure that it will feature top artists. Keep an eye out for a wide range of fantastic DJs and acts soon to be listed on our party calendar.


Kisstory old-school anthem Tuesdays

The British radio station, Kiss FM is known for playing those classic dance tunes, the songs that make you feel nostalgic and want to sing along to every verse. Back by popular demand this summer, the Tuesday event Kisstory kicks on 22 May and runs until 2 October.

As well as dance music stompers, you can expect the best in garage, hip-hop and r'n'b blasting around the plush Ocean Beach venue. They kick things off every week at 13.00, giving you plenty of time to sunbathe whilst enjoying those ultra-cool old school favourites.


Midweek fun from HotBed

Taking care of Wednesday is HotBed, the daytime event from brilliant party creators behind London collective ABODE. Having made a brilliant debut season in 2017, they return this year for a huge 17-week residency starting on 6 June and finishing on 26 September. A mix of uplifting and deep house makes for a brilliant poolside sound.

Expect people fist-pumping from the loungers as DJs such as Danny Langan, Parris & Lloyd, Will Taylor and more take to deck duties. If you were a fan of ABODE's underground residency at Sankeys on Sundays, then you are going to love HotBed.


Thursdays are number ONE

With a mantra of one dance floor, one goal, one love, you can expect a very inclusive daytime event at ONE, an Ocean Beach outdoor dance floor concept. Focusing on the rhythms of r'n'b, garage, hip hop & soulful sounding house, there's a musical flavour for everyone at ONE.

The plan of action for the Thursday event starts on 7 June, bringing the best headliners and pioneering acts every week until 27 September. Residents DJ Spoony, Tom Crane & Grant Collins will be dropping those comeback genre beats.


Feeling dreamy on Fridays in Dreamland

Entice your imagination with the fantasy surroundings of the Dreamland Pool Party. Be prepared to meet mythological and fantastical characters, as your sleeping inspiration comes to life. Starting on 25 May, the events provide dreamy experiences all the way up until 28 September.

Matched with perfectly blue skies of San Antonio, you will be grooving along to the sounds of the resident DJs Tom Crane, Grant Collins, Loeca and Sam Dungate as well as live performances from the King of the Bongos, Gaz Kempster. Get set for an event at which you will live in a utopia of your ultimate fantasies.


Uplift your spirit with Soul Heaven Saturdays

Now into its seventh year at Ocean Beach, Soul Heaven returns to San Antonio with its delicious disco sounds on Saturdays for 2018. Taking inspiration from the legendary foundations of house music, you can hear a selection of soulful grooves on the dance floor.

Themed around the famous Studio 54 nightclub, you can expect plenty of glitz and glamour from the amazing entertainments on show at Soul Heaven. Beginning the disco journey on 2 June, Soul Heaven has a huge summer planned until 29 September.

Saturdays were made for getting down with the disco fever, so funk the afternoon away with Soul Heaven.


Sunday is a fun day

Over the course of the season, Sundays are divided between alternating events taking place once a month or a few times throughout the summer. For those after a little mischief on the seventh day, the very first Sin Sunday is on the 13 May. Expect stellar performances from Scouse DJs and percussionists at this decadently hedonistic party.

Come aboard the nautical themed Boat Club for an ocean-inspired party. It first hits the white isle on 20 May and draws glamorous crowds.

Next up is House in Paradise, an event centred around the vibe of a paradisiacal oasis. Three is the magic number as this tribal event takes place on 17 June, 22 June and 2 September. Pick your date to explore this tropical realm of wonders.

Last but by no means least is the champagne-popping luxurious daytime party Ibiza Spray. Running since 2013, this event is known for its exuberance and decadent nature, letting the white & pink bubbly champagne rain from the heavens. There are five dates in total, starting from the 27 May.


Exclusive one date specials

As you can see, plenty of exciting dates already await you at Ocean Beach this summer. With so many opportunities to visit San Antonio's exclusive seaside club, some are one-offs worth noting in your Ibiza calendar.

The first is the Ocean Beach's sixth birthday celebrations, where you are invited to party and revel in the festivities on 22 June. Anyone who has been to an Ocean beach birthday before knows that this event is not to be missed.

The crazy atmosphere and entertainment of Tru's Do's feature on 1 July. With peak season underway, this is a perfect time to soak up the sun at this legendary Ibiza establishment.

Finally, we will eventually have to wave goodbye to Ocean Beach but not without one final hurrah at their Closing Party on 5 October. The grand finale will feature amazing stunts from Arte Volante with DJs Tom Crane, Grant Collins, Sam Dungate and Loeca providing the closing soundtrack with the best summer tunes.

Have your sunglasses and sun cream at the ready for an Ocean Beach summer that you will always remember.
