Buckle in tight. We've reached the beginning of the end - as far as summer 2022 is concerned, at least. Weekend one of venue Closing Parties will indeed be a cracker for a multitude of reasons.
The two big clubs in Playa d'en Bossa bow out in style, while Eden and Lío Ibiza also wave farewell to summer. Plus things are rounded-off with the very last Monday at DC10 in 2022. Plenty to sink your teeth into before we get a few days respite before weekend two boots off.
One thing is for sure, a dull moment there won't be. It's all systems go for the foreseeable.
Let's take a look at this coming weekend in further detail.
One More dANTS | Ushuaïa Closing Party | Saturday 8 October
For Ushuaïa's 2022 swansong, The Night League (TNL) hand over controls to Saturday daytime party specialists the colony AKA ANTS for what is essentially an extension of the party's season. One More DANTS is packed with Tech House talent from midday onwards.
Andrea Oliva, the man who has become the party's leading figure, is in the mix. The Swiss native will go back-to-back with CAMELPHAT, who themselves enjoyed a fruitful season at the party hotel in 2022.
Further b2bs see Latmun paired with Francisco Allendes and Chelina Manuhutu lock horns with Syreeta.
At the very top of the bill, Black Coffee and The Martinez Brothers give some real star quality that will guarantee Ushuaïa hits full capacity. BUY TICKETS & MORE INFO
Were any of you up for a bit of a clubbing marathon? Good, because...
Hï Ibiza Closing Party | Saturday 8 October
What? You're not thinking of going home, are you? Good. Because we carry on over the road at sister club Hï Ibiza for the nighttime leg. For its Closing Party, TNL invite back all of the major players who have made summer 2022 the unmitigated success it has proven to be.
Season Club Room zealots Damian Lazarus and Vintage Culture get a promotion to The Theatre for the occasion. Just desserts for a summer of packing out room two for both of them. There they're joined by familiar entities Tale Of Us and The Martinez Brothers.
Add Peggy Gou to the mix and you have an irresistible line-up that is going to pull the masses.
Next door, another star of the summer Paco Osuna heads up a Techno-orientated bill. He's joined by Anifisa Letyago, ANNA and SITA. Who's in for this one? Us certainly.
Eden Closing Party "We Are San An" | Friday 7 October
Before all that mayhem kicks-off, across the other side of the island in San Antonio, Eden throws it's own summer cooler. Using the strap line "We Are San An", the venue's Closing Party has dual purpose, serving as a thank you to the town and the clubbing community on the doorstep.
Adopting a back-to-basics approach, the finale dispenses with lavish big name bookings and instead looks to the roster of DJs who live in the area. These local heroes include Jason Bye, Clara Da Costa, Perry Martin and Damon Hess, amongst dozens more.
These are the sometimes unsung heroes of the scene. Each of them, not only a reliable pair of hands behind the decks, but passionate about Ibiza. All of them possess an uncanny ability to read the room - and you just know, no DJ on this planet knows Eden's dancefloor better.
Tickets are a very reasonable €30 and since this is basically a reunion for the town, you can expect one of the best atmospheres of summer. Let's give Eden the summer send-off it deserves. BUY TICKETS & MORE INFO
Lío Ibiza Double Summer Closing Party | 8 & 9 October
Pacha Group's sparkling cabaret and fine dining venue is also closing this weekend. As an extra little treat, Lío Ibiza's celebrations are spread over two consecutive nights. Afro House guru Angelos is the man at the helm for first night on Saturday 8 October. The following night, Audiofly, who know a thing or two about hosting a party at this end of town, are in charge.
Don't fret too much, as Lío continues beyond this weekend, with the already confirmed Melon Bomb Halloween fast approaching on 31 August. All these dates include the option for dinner and show before the club opens at midnight.
Circoloco | DC10 Closing Party | Monday 10 October
Rounding off the weekend with the most notorious Monday party on the planet, the clown waves goodbye to another Circoloco season. DC10's Closing Party is as stacked as always, with &Me b2b Rampa, Dixon, Maceo Plex, Michael Bibi, Patrick Topping, Seth Troxler and lots more all in.
You needed to move quick for this one. Tickets are sold out and there is no allocation held back for the door. MORE INFO
