When are Ibiza opening parties?
The opening party period normally starts in late April and continues through May, with each venue choosing its own weekend.
Because announcements arrive at different times, checking updated listings regularly is the easiest way to catch new dates early.
What to expect at opening parties
Opening parties are about energy, atmosphere, and first moments. Clubs invest heavily in production, sound, and lineups.
Expect a wide mix of music across house, techno, and commercial names depending on the venue.
How to plan your opening party trip
Choose accommodation based on where you expect to spend most nights. Ibiza Town is central for clubs and dining. San Antonio works well for west coast venues.
Buy tickets in advance where possible. Some opening nights sell out quickly.
Transport after big events can be slow. Factor in queues and late finishes.
Beyond the clubs
The best opening trips mix nightlife with nature. Beaches, boat days, Dalt Vila walks, and sunset viewpoints complete the experience.
