Legendary Ibiza Dance Clubs You Have To Know

Each summer, thousands of party-goers flock to the island to enjoy the Balearic beat in some of the biggest and most famous dance clubs in the world. The ones below helped define Ibiza’s party spirit and are true institutions of the dance scene.

1. DC-10

Nightclub, Spanish

A more recent addition to the Ibiza party scene, DC-10 is perhaps best known for its world-famous Circoloco nights. When the club first opened its doors in 2000, the Circoloco party would start off at 6am on Mondays, just in time to welcome party-goers finishing up the night across the road at Space. Within a few years the club had built up a reputation for playing underground DJs and was also considered a stronghold for the then emergent minimal-techno genre. Despite many attempts by local authorities to shut the club down, many of which proved successful, the club reopened in 2010 and both Circoloco and the Wednesday night Paradise party are still going strong.

2. Privilege

If you’re a believer that bigger is always better, then Privilege is the club for you. Officially recognized as the world’s largest nightclub by the Guinness Book of World Records, the club (with a main room the size of an aircraft hangar) can host a whopping 10,000 people. Previously a restaurant before turning its hand to dance music, the venue is best known for its legendary Manumission party: originally launched in Manchester in 1994, and considered as the most debauched party in Ibiza at the time. The event ran for 15 years before moving to the rival club Amnesia in 2007.
