Have you been patient? Or have you been refreshing the party calendar every few hours to see if there's been an update? Either way, you can now relax. Cocoon has dropped the line-up for its first 2026 date at 528 Ibiza.
Compared to the last two years at the sprawling outdoor venue in Benimussa Hills, the names have really been mixed up for Wednesday 20 May.
You can tell that Sven Väth has assembled some of his own musical inspirations for the first party of 2026, giving us a day-to-night of discovery.
All of the artists featured are amongst the most spun in his record bag down the years.
Further than this, four of the six guests have contributed tracks across volumes one and two of the V/As that mark the 25th anniversary of Cocoon Recordings.
Robag Wruhme had a huge Cocoon Ibiza track with Veddel Brav in summer 2018, while Sven called on Henrik Schwarz to revisit his OFF classic Electrica Salsa and give it a new interpretation.
Meanwhile, Jonathan Kaspar is an unsung hero of the label and can be talked about as one of the most talented producers in modern Techno.
As for Emanuel Satie, we can't recall a time he hasn't had at least one of his tracks on rotation in Sven's sets, whether as a solo artist or as part of Scenarios. Ogazón and André Galluzi complete the bill.
Exact dispersions with regard to who plays which stage and/or whether day or night will be revealed at a later date.
Sadly, if you hadn't already moved for them, you have now missed out on early bird tickets for the first party (though, for now, they remain available for the second 528 Ibiza date at the opposite end of summer on 23 September).
Tickets to both parties are on sale below or via our party calendar. Remember that the day & night combo tickets are subject to a smaller capacity and will sell out sooner. Don't sleep on them.
