For the last two years, we've become besotted with Sven Väth's early season appearances. This year, he comes to San Carlos on Maundy Thursday once again.
Before summer starts, we warm up with his annual Easter visit to Las Dalias on 17 April.
The format remains unchanged to previous years: starting in the garden during the evening and moving inside to intimate Akasha later. The name, however, does change for 2025.
Welcome to Sven Väth presents T.R.A.N.C.E.
One of the earlier, if not, the earli-est, proponents of the Trance genre in its original form, Sven is clearly referencing that past with the name of his tour. Indeed, a whole movement grew out of Sven's bunker sessions at the Dorian Gray nightclub beneath Frankfurt airport in the early '90s.
In fact, it runs deeper. Papa is seeking to reclaim lost meaning to a word that has strayed far from its origins.
T - Transformation: Easter and spring are an allegory for rebirth, new life and new beginnings
R - Resonance: vibrate on the same frequency as the dancefloor
A - Ascendancy: take yourself to a higher state of consciousness
N - Nature: outside under the stars at Ibiza's original hippy hangout
C - Connection: surround yourself with likeminded clubbers
E - Ecstasy: this one speaks for itself - pure, undiluted euphoria
Those of you hoping to find full-access garden and club tickets will be disappointed to learn they are already sold out for the Easter date (a handful still remain on sale for 29 May).
While additional allocation being added is unlikely, some will be re-released with customer cancellations in the next five weeks. We can only recommend monitoring the pages regularly and being quick to react when this happens. They'll get hoovered up as soon as they appear.
Alternatively, buy a garden ticket and a late-night ticket separately. Then once the garden shuts at 23:00 disappear to a nearby bar for a few hours and then return just before 02:00 for the final part of the night. Just call us problem shooters.
Those remaining tickets can be found at the bottom of this page.
Remember, Ibiza Spotlight is Las Dalias and Akasha's sole ticketing provider. Tickets are not available on any other platforms. Be wary of fakes and duplicates in circulation through second-hand sellers. The only way you can guarantee yours is legitimate is buying direct from source.
Details of further summer 2025 dates are coming soon. Stay tuned.
