About Pacha's Grand Opening Party
Taking place the same weekend as International Music Summit, Pacha's Grand Opening Party brings together all the elements that have made the club the most recognised brand in nightlife worldwide. The cherries will gleam!
Unlike other Ibiza opening parties which opt for volume of artists, Pacha takes a "less is more" approach. This usually means just a couple of DJs playing from open to close. In fact, the format borrows from a certain Solomun-fronted party on Sunday...

Ibiza Town is the capital of the island. You'll find a metropolitan centre, the Old Town and the port area, each with its own character, vibe and plenty of lively bars to start your evening. They're about a 10-15 minute walk from Pacha or a short taxi ride.
For those traveling to the resort, you can take the L3 disco bus from San Antonio or the less frequent L13 from the direction of Santa Eulalia. There is a taxi rank immediately outside the club, as well as cafes, bars and restaurants in the immediate vicinity. Many open late-night.

Who?
It could only be one man at the helm for this special occasion. Roll out the red carpet.
Solomun is Pacha's regular Sunday evening host and is often called upon to act as custodian of its Grand Opening Party. Such a high-intensity gig requires a sturdy pair of hands - and few are safer than the big Balkan's.
Far from feeling the nerves, the big man will revel in the spotlight. No one commands the booth with the same authoritative presence. In fact, the latest incarnation of the DJ booth was designed and positioned with Solomun in mind. It's custom made.
Also playing: Mau P
What?
Solomun has a record bag unlike any other DJ. Here are some of his favorite tracks from the last decade.

Why?
Five good reasons to go:
- Solomon orchestrates from the middle of Pacha's main room - everything else spirals outward from his centre of gravity
- a first-listen at how Sundays will sound musically this summer
- Pacha's glamorous glitterati will be dolled-up to the nines for the occasion
- season curtain-raiser IMS Grand Final at Dalt Vila is only a short intermission away from Pacha
- a chance to catch Drugs In Amsterdam producer Mau P
