Ibiza nightlife luminary Yann Pissenem is to receive the IMS Legends Award at this year's International Music Summit.
The founder, owner and CEO of The Night League (TNL) will be the latest recipient of the illustrious honour. He follows in the footsteps of fellow scene giants Pepe Roselló, Ricardo Urgell, Sven Väth, Simon Dunmore, the Arnau family and last year's inductee, Maria May.
As part of the news, it has also been confirmed that Yann will sit face-to-face with host Pete Tong for a Keynote Interview at Mondrian & Hyde this April.
Yann said of the announcement, "I am truly honoured to receive this recognition from IMS. Ibiza has been my home and my inspiration for many years. The island has shaped my work and my understanding of nightlife and electronic music culture.
Looking back on this journey, I am filled with gratitude.
Along the way, I have been fortunate to cross paths with artists at various stages of their careers. Some joined us as emerging talents and have become defining figures of our industry; others were already established artists who believed in our vision from the first moment.
Seeing Hï Ibiza, Ushuaïa and [UNVRS] recognised among the best in the world is a reflection of our shared passion: the desire to push boundaries, to pursue excellence without compromise and to believe nightlife can create unforgettable moments that transcend the ordinary.
This award belongs to everyone who has been part of that vision.
I feel immense pride for what we have built together, and sincere appreciation for all those who continue to make this journey possible."
The IMS Legends Award dinner will take place on Wednesday 22 April as part the opening day's schedule at this year's conference. Full details of the celebratory meal TBA.
