Dear friends will be reunited on Wednesday 25 September, as Techno luminary Richie Hawtin is revealed as the first name joining Sven Väth at 25Y Cocoon Ibiza.
The first Cocoon Ibiza in five years takes place at 528 Ibiza in Benimussa Hills to mark the party's quarter century.
Richie Hawtin was one of the Cocoon originals. While he was already a star on the global Techno stage, where Ibiza is concerned, it was at Cocoon where he made his name. He later used it as a springboard to launch his own party, ENTER., which ran for four seasons from 2013 to 2016.
There is always something special about him returning to Cocoon, however. In fact, the last time he and Sven shared a Cocoon Ibiza line-up together was almost exactly five years ago (pictured above).
Their reunion spells magic for the Cocoon faithful who are no doubt salivating at the prospect already.
They each headline a different of 528 Ibiza's outdoor Garden stages. Sven will play on the Benimussa Stage (Grand Park Stage), while Richie heads up the Bullring Stage (Amphitheatre).
Two full stages, just like the good old days. The rest of the line-up remains TBA.
This latest announcement is sure to see a spike in ticket sales. With early bird tickets now sold out, we direct your attention to the general admission tier which is on sale now.
Just like Sven's dates at Akasha, a sell-out well in advance of the day is on the cards. You should not rest on your laurels with regard to the after party combo tickets in particular. Head below to secure yours now.
