Since the summer of 1995, BBC Radio 1 has touched down annually on the Spanish party island of Ibiza. For 2025, Radio 1 returns to 528 Ibiza (formerly Benimussa Park, which used to host The Zoo Project parties) for the opening night of the weekend.
Conceived by veteran broadcaster Pete Tong, the legendary weekender has become an institution which shows no signs of slowing down as it hits its monumental third decade. The annual pilgrimage is a rite of passage for Radio 1's young listener base.
For many of them, this will be their first experience of Ibiza - and what an introduction.
Taking place in peak summer, with school, college and university holidays well underway, the island is already firing on all cylinders, the temperature is at its hottest and the dancefloors at their craziest. The 30th anniversary is set to be biggest year ever.
Names such as Judge Jules and Dave Pearce have given way to Annie Mac and Danny Howard, but despite the changing faces, the sense of expectation remains as intoxicating as it ever has.
Just like every summer, the weekend spans multiple locations.
The confirmed acts for this year are (A-Z) Chloé Caillet, Chris Lake, Disciples, Emily Nash, Jess Bays, Olive F, Sonny Fodera and Arielle Free, Charlie Hedges, Danny Howard, Pete Tong and Sarah Story from the Radio 1 Dance family.
BBC Radio 1 Dance X Ibiza takes place on Friday 2 August.
See below for tickets and line-up.
After we're finished at 528, we continue into the night at Amnesia with the official BBC Radio 1 Dance X After Party. For tickets and more info, please visit this page.
