You won't find an entity more adaptable to change on Ibiza than Ibiza Rocks. Reinvention is what it has always excelled at. From day one, the pioneering club brand has challenged the general consensus on what an Ibiza party can entail.
When the island has called out for fresh energy and a new approach in the past, Ibiza Rocks has answered the call, directing traffic away from the status quo towards the next trend.
In 2026, the evolution continues, as the party hotel in San Antonio changes course once more. Charles Darwin himself, would be proud of this one.
Welcome to Ibiza Rocks Pool Club - a reimagined poolside experience.
Along with a covered dancefloor, fine-tuned sound, more private beds for hire and a refreshed food and drinks menu, which everybody can enjoy, extra value is being added for those who stay at the hotel. Major surgery. Even the parties themselves have gone under the knife.
Don't expect endless uundz, uundz and certainly don't bank on any expensive headliners being booked at the expense of atmosphere. While established favourites like Ibiza Anthems and RnB Affair are set to return, new additions will be music-led without relying on the cult of celebrity.
Not only will there be a revamped party programme, but an adjusted venue layout to maximise space and improve the customer experience.
Indeed, just like always, the customer has been placed at the heart of these changes. The youth market is often not given enough credit, but Ibiza Rocks has chosen to listen to its untapped market. Many of the incoming changes have been at the suggestion of past guests.
Ibiza Rocks' chief booker, Patrick Nazemi (pictured above), had this to say about the changes: "Ibiza doesn't need another dark room and a €200 ticket to feel something. It needs daylight, space and a venue that's genuinely enjoyable to spend time in.
Ibiza Rocks Pool Club is built for people who want atmosphere, personality and proper moments. We're not here to claim a revolution. We're simply refocusing on what matters. Not louder. Not bigger. Just better."
While there is still much more info to divulge, that should be enough to whet your appetite for now. Believe us, we're just as eager as all of you to discover what Pat and the rest of the IRG team has in store for us.
Over the coming weeks, we'll be unpacking all the new parties one-by-one. You'll find out about everything right here, on Ibiza Spotlight.
Once that is ready to share, you'll find it in the usual place: published to our magazine.
Keep your eyes locked on our party calendar, where listings will be added as soon as tickets go live.
