Ibiza is open all year round, contrary to global opinion. While it does burst into life during the summer season as many of the world’s biggest and most innovative promoters relocate to the Balearic island for the duration, there are countless events on throughout the year. Ibiza is known the world over as the clubbing capital, rightly so for the unmitigated amount of clubbing activity that goes on through the summer. What that title has done, however, is lead to more than one generation of locals growing up in the shadow of these performers, DJs and promoters, witnessing first hand the plethora of creative outlets that they enjoy, inspiring them to follow suit. Also, the amount of people from around the world brought to the island by the lure of the bright lights and banging beats that have fallen in love and stayed means that there is a more than average supply of innovative, creative souls living in Ibiza. That means that throughout the year, there are countless numbers of amazing events that are delivered by people with a passion for the creative. There’s never a du moment on the white isle.
