Avid followers of FISHER will already know he announced he and wife Chloe will be flying home to Australia for a month at the end of June, for the birth of their first child.
We are delighted for the couple, especially as listeners to Chloe's podcast and knowing of the journey they have been on to get to this point. Not gonna lie, it's hit us right in the feels!
That left a quandary as to what happen at Hï Ibiza on Wednesdays, being that those dates fall just a few weeks after the start of his popular residency. Well, now we have the answer.
"My wife's due to give birth this summer and we're both over the moon. To be with Chloe for one of the biggest moments of our lives, I will hand over the reins of my Hï Ibiza residency to the incredible Patrick Topping from 19 June to 10 July."
That's right. Monday night Club Room host Patrick Topping makes the switch to The Theatre for four Wednesdays from 19 June to 10 July with Trick. As far as replacements go, that is A-league. Vintage Culture continues his Club Room residency as planned throughout this period.
This is a chance for Pat to take his big room sound into a larger, higher tech-spec space and adorn crowds with his hard-hitting club anthems and explorations of the underground. No doubt, he'll be bringing some label friends along for the ride.
With Patrick's own wife Hayley also expecting their first-born, it's adorable to see the two expectant fathers mucking together and finding a solution that doesn't hurt clubbers.
Furthermore, to ensure none of his fans are left disappointed, FISHER is planning to extend his residency by an extra week to now close on Wednesday 2 October. Fear not, you'll all still get your dose of FISHER's innovative, throw ya hands in the air Tech House long into summer.
Tickets for all parties, including the four Trick takeovers and the newly added closing party of 2 October, are on sale now and available below.
