Disco revives at Pure Pacha with Purple Disco Machine and special guests
With a legacy shaped by names like Pete Tong, Bob Sinclar, Martin Solveig and Robin Schulz, Pure Pacha returns in 2026 to embark on a fresh new chapter. This summer, the long-running party will be led by acclaimed German selector Purple Disco Machine.
A timeless artist who connects generations and dancefloors worldwide, Purple Disco Machine (PDM) takes over Pacha on Thursdays for a half-season residency running from 16 July to 1 October (although there is an earlier warm-up date set for Saturday 9 May).
This news puts Disco back at the heart of Ibiza nightlife, just as it was when Pacha first opened its doors in 1973.
This residency is about reconnecting today's global dance culture with Ibiza’s original disco roots.
The inclusivity and genre-fluid energy that defined Pacha throughout the 1970s and 1980s is being revived, as PDM blends Italo influences with modern production and dynamic DJ storytelling, while inviting the next generation to embrace the genre's timeless appeal.
This year, a carefully select roster hop on board the disco bus, including 2manydjs, Armand Van Helden, Busy P, Deer Jade, Disco Dom (Dombresky), Flight Facilities, Gerd Janson, Kungs, LP Giobbi and Todd Terje.
Arguably one of the most powerful names in dance music, Armand Van Helden flies in for an exclusive performance 10 September. Pacha will be a melting pot of some of the biggest House hits on this date, and is not to be missed.
An artist who's acquired just a few aliases over the years, Dombresky switches to his funk-led alter ego on 16 July and 6 August. Meanwhile, a 2024 Pacha resident Kungs (pictured above) returns to the club.
Support acts for the summer include David Bay who assumes opening duties on most dates, plus the rising female talent formerly known as Blondi, DiOSA. She takes on four separate dates across the residency.
