MANUMISSION was never shy in coming forward. Even in old age, that provocative nature and risque persuasion doesn't appear to have dimmed.
Billing itself as The Party of the Decade, Le Weekend Manumission takes place at multiple island locations between Friday 25 September and Sunday 27 September. The weekend's centrepiece is set to be the full venue takeover of 528 Ibiza on Saturday 26 September.
Directed by co-creators and husband-and-wife duo Mike & Claire Manumission, the party's original organisers seek to relive the spirit of 1998.
Running from 17:00 until 05:00, MANUMISSION welcomes guests to enjoy twelve hours of indulgence and revelry, moving between stages, performances and immersive environments as day moves into night.
Attendees will be invited to explore a series of titillating zones spread across the entire 528 Ibiza site.
Part art installation, part fever dream, the Manumission Motel Stage will once again play most to daring performer and London's social elite, promising unexpected surprises around every corner. Already, a mystery headline performance is being teased... any ideas?
Deep within the Forest, the Bedroom Bondage à la Japonaise Stage offers a hidden world of intrique and temptation, presiding over by another cloaked personality and their fierce cast of femme fatales.
Elsewhere, the notorious Insane Asylum returns as MANMUSSION's notorious backstage hangout - a gathering place for free-thinkers, disruptors, delinquents, sex queens, creative visionaries and showman turntablists.
Across the weekend, there is also Hellfire in the Hong Kong Hot Tub in the Forbidden Garden, a homage to the late Godfather of Balearic Beat Alfredo, Le Théâtre Pink Pussy, Roger More's Dark Room and the ominous return of Room 10. All sound positively scandalous.
Few parties can claim to have shaped Ibiza's club culture to the same degree as MANUMISSION.
One of the defining brands of Ibiza's golden age, it blurred the lines between dancefloor, theatre, performance art and spectacle, becoming one of the most referenced and parodied names in the island's history. If you're looking for the forebears of the likes of elrow, MANUMISSION is it!
