Found beachside on the south end of party resort Playa d'en Bossa, palatial clubber's hotel Ushuaïa Ibiza is the island's current largest on capacity. It matches that stature with outrageous production, pyrotechnics, lights shows and by inviting the biggest DJs on the planet.
Capable of holding up to 7,000 rave-ready holidaymakers, Ushuaïa is the ultimate outdoor party experience. You're highly likely to fly over the club as you land, so get a good glimpse peering out of your window seat. Hours later, you could be stood below with your arms in the air.
While neighbouring sister-club Hï Ibiza may have rung the changes, Ushuaïa has taken the opposite approach. It largely sticks with its existing line-up: the Galacticos of EDM, as well as some firm underground favourites. Though there is at least one big surprise amongst the pack...
Week overview
ANTS | Saturdays
2 May to 3 October
Back in 2013, ANTS started life as a party to give back to the island's dedicated community of workers, catering to underground music lovers in the know. With its slick monochrome identity and forward-thinking approach, ANTS was an instant smash.
The colony has continued to grow ever since, but maybe it outgrew its original ethos?
For 2026, ANTS strips things back and returns to its core values under the mantra no system, only sound. Expect a renewed focus on cutting-edge selectors, rising talent, raw underground energy and the music-first spirit that made Saturdays at Ushuaïa essential in the first place.

David Guetta presents F*** ME I'M FAMOUS! | Mondays
1 June to 5 October
F*** ME I'M FAMOUS! by David Guetta is a clubbing and Ibiza institution that has enjoyed success in various different incarnations - all of them massive. The super producer to the star's insanely successful outdoor party has been one of the island's most popular in the last several decades, so it is no surprise to see Guetta bring it back at poolside on Mondays.
Guetta himself has likened this to a live concert experience, so you can expect him to play all his hits and personal edits. But even when it won't be his own music, you'll most definitely recognise the melodies.
Like all Ushuaïa parties, FMIF! boast stellar productions. The party does everything on a large scale, with festival-style production and energy through the roof - if there were one, that is! You won't need to be a super-fan to appreciate the music, but you might leave as one!
