Presented by AlphaTheta, the annual IMS Grand Finale returns to the citadel of Dalt Vila on Friday 24 April for its 17th edition. The open-air party is the official closing celebration of International Music Summit conference, when the talk is over and the dancing can begin.
After three days of panels, talks and big-picture conversations, the outdoor party held within the ancient walls of Ibiza's Old Town is where the industry gets to let its hair down.
It's a rare moment where the global dance music community comes together on the same dancefloor, and sets the tone for the summer ahead on the island.
This year, the party teams up with Appetite - an Essex/London-born party brand that has built a strong following in recent years and has since brought the same energy to Ibiza.
With a clear focus on a younger audience, Appetite has injected a fresh perspective into the musical programming this year. While past years' have always been upfront and daring, a new generation of DJs steps onto the big stage for the forthcoming edition.
The 2026 line-up features Faithless Sound System supported by Ahmed Spins, Ankhoï, Delilah, Eliza Rose, Indo Warehouse, Jazzy, Locky, L.P. Rhythm, Mayssa, Olive F, IMS' own Pete Tong and Appetite founders Elliot Schooling & Liam Palmer.
As the eyes of the world fall on Ibiza over opening weekend, IMS Grand Finale takes centre stage. It really is a party to write home about. Our enthusiasm knows no bounds for it.
One of the most aesthetically pleasing backdrops to a rave anywhere, it's not every day you get to watch some of your favourite DJs perform at an UNESCO World Heritage Site, high above Ibiza Town with panoramic views across the island's east coast.
The setting alone makes it special, but this year the music is going to be next level.
Stay tuned for more details, including some special back-to-back pairings still to be announced.
