Since the summer of 1995, BBC Radio 1 has touched down annually on the Spanish party island of Ibiza. Just like all good parties, following the main daytime event at sprawling outdoor venue 528 Ibiza, we continue into the night with the official After Party at Amnesia.
This year, the annual weekender celebrates thirty years of Ibiza shenanigans.
Conceived by veteran broadcaster Pete Tong, the legendary weekender has become an institution which shows no signs of slowing down as it reaches its incredible 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.
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.
BBC Radio 1 Dance X After Party takes place on Friday 1 August, with Josh Baker b2b Kettama, Chloé Caillet, Danny Howard, Sarah Story and Caal.
Then, a few days later, Radio 1 is back again on Thursday 7 August, followed by a third date on Thursday 11 September. Although neither is a part of the weekender, you can expect the same high-calibre programme and unmatched energy. DJs confirmed for these two parties include (A-Z) Arielle Free, Eliza Rose, LaLa, Morgan Seatree, Rudimental (DJ set), Special Request, Sub Focus and more.
