Throughout its history and having undergone several name changes, 528 Ibiza has morphed from petting attraction to restaurant, and outdoor party location to high-end theatrical dining experience.
Now the sprawling estate owned by Ibizan land baron Bartolo Escandell has been transformed yet again. Returning to arguably its most successful usage, from 2023 onwards 528 Ibiza began hosting outdoor parties once more.
Previously the home of the legendary Zoo Project parties (as Benimussa Park, Gala Nights), 528 Ibiza and its entrepreneurial-minded leaseholder Andy McKay (Ibiza Rocks, Pikes, MANUMISSION) curate a series of parties throughout summer, inviting a variety of names and sounds to play the expansive venue.
After the phenomenal success of the last few years, 528 Ibiza will again host the riotous BBC Radio 1 Dance Ibiza weekend as summer reaches its peak.
Resting between pine hillsides and boasting alluring, elevated views towards the golden sunset in the distance, 528 Ibiza is a breathtaking alfresco blank canvas that invites the most creative entities in entertainment to project something magical onto it.
Harmonised within the landscape, 528 Ibiza is comprised of three zones each with their own functionality. The sprawling outdoor space is made up of two main stages, the Grand Park Stage and the Garden Stage, and a smaller, more intimate Forest Stage, tucked away at the back of the site. Depending on the date and size of the crowd, various configurations of the above can be used. They are serviced by bars, toilets, food stalls and seating areas.
Previously know as "the rabbit hole", the on site Club is where everyone heads after dark. The box-like space has amazing acoustics and offers a traditional nightclub experience without the need for travelling to a different destination.
Overlooking the two, is the rooftop Terrace, which has impressive views over the surrounding countryside. The Terrace can be used both theatrically, functionally or a combination of the two with the added bonus of being outside and making use of Ibiza's amazing climate.
