Dates revealed for BBC Radio 1's 2023 Dance Live weekend

In a shake-up to tradition, it might not be when you expect...

BBC Radio 1 Dance Party host Danny Howard has just sensationally revealed the dates for next year's R1 Dance Live Ibiza weekender on air.

Usually we need to wait well into the year before we get this vital piece of information, but not for 2023. In a shake-up to tradition, it might not be when you expect...

Friday 28 July is the start date you are looking for, with the programme continuing through to Sunday 30 July (which, from experience, basically means Monday morning!)

You can listen back to the announcement here.

There's little we like more than a nice early announcement. Plenty of time now to plan.

While the first weekend in August has been the designated R1 weekend for as long as we can remember, actually, we think this new slot is better for all involved.

You can relive this year's skirmish by reading our weekend review. That will give you some idea of what to expect, although the 2023 edition is set to be the biggest R1 Ibiza weekend in years.

Don't say we didn't warn you.

With return flights from the UK currently at very handsome prices over these dates (but sure to shoot up on this announcement), now is the time to act and get booking. Or, at the very least, add them to your Christmas wish list.

We'll leave you on this set from Duke Dumont and Gorgon City, recorded at Café Mambo, to put you in the mood. If you haven't already got skyscanner open on your browser, we'll be disappointed.
