Ibiza is preparing for another season marked by large-scale productions and internationally recognised electronic music concepts. One of the most important announcements for 2026 is the return of Tomorrowland and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike to Ushuaïa Ibiza, where they will once again lead the iconic Wednesday residency from 6 May to 30 September 2026. Across 19 dates, the venue will host a full immersion into Planaxis, one of Tomorrowland’s most recognisable creative universes.
This residency marks a new chapter in a long-standing creative partnership and reinforces Ushuaïa Ibiza’s position as one of the island’s most influential open-air venues. Planaxis brings together music, visual storytelling and large-format production in a concept designed specifically for Ibiza’s unique setting.
Planaxis: an underwater world reimagined Ibiza
This party is inspired by The Story of Planaxis, an underwater universe that defined a landmark era in Tomorrowland’s history. For the 2026 season, this concept has been custom-built for Ushuaïa, transforming the open-air stage into a hypnotic oceanic landscape. Monumental structures, marine-inspired visuals and carefully synchronised lighting create an environment that evolves throughout the day and into the night.
Water, as the original source of life, plays a central role in the narrative. The production uses visual cues, sound design and spatial elements to evoke depth, movement and immersion, creating a sensory atmosphere that extends far beyond the DJ booth. Combined with Ibiza’s Mediterranean light and open skies, the concept takes on a distinct character unique to this venue.
Tomorrowland’s creative signature on the island
Known globally for its attention to detail and large-scale storytelling, Tomorrowland brings its creative language to Ibiza with a production that reflects the festival’s core values. The residency is not conceived as a simple club night, but as a recurring experience where music, architecture and visual identity work together.
Each Wednesday, the open-air stage becomes the focal point of a carefully designed environment that mirrors Tomorrowland’s reputation for immersive worlds. This approach has played a key role in establishing Ushuaïa as a venue capable of hosting productions that rival major festivals while maintaining a consistent weekly format.
Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike lead Wednesdays at Ushuaïa Ibiza
Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike return as the driving force behind the residency, bringing their high-energy sound back to the island. The Belgian duo, twice named World’s No.1 DJs by DJ Mag, are known for performances that blend big-room anthems, electro influences and distinctive remixes designed for large open-air crowds.
Throughout the season, they will be joined by a rotating international line-up, adding variety while preserving a coherent musical direction. Across the 19 dates scheduled between May and September, the residency is designed to maintain momentum while allowing space for musical evolution within a clearly defined framework.
Ushuaïa Ibiza and its role in Ibiza’s nightlife landscape
Since its opening, Ushuaïa has played a defining role in shaping Ibiza’s daytime and open-air clubbing culture. Its iconic stage, expansive pool area and outdoor dancefloor have become central elements of the island’s contemporary nightlife identity. As part of the creative ecosystem of The Night League, the venue continues to host some of the most ambitious productions on the island.
The venue’s format allows events to unfold gradually, starting in the afternoon and extending into the night. This structure enhances the impact of large-scale productions, where natural light transitions and atmospheric changes become part of the overall experience.
A residency that defines the rhythm of the week
Wednesdays at Ushuaïa have become a fixed point in the island’s weekly rhythm, and the return of Tomorrowland strengthens that position. The consistency of the residency across the season allows the concept to develop fully, rather than relying on one-off moments. This continuity is a key factor in the success of long-running Ibiza residencies and aligns with the venue’s broader programming strategy.
The scale of the production, combined with the recognisable creative identity of Tomorrowland, places this party among the most visually ambitious projects scheduled for the 2026 season.
Key dates and practical information
The Planaxis residency will run every Wednesday from 6 May to 30 September 2026, covering a significant portion of Ibiza’s main season. Given the scope of the production and the international profile of the artists involved, demand for tickets is expected to be high throughout the summer.
Ushuaïa is located in Playa d’en Bossa, one of the island’s most established nightlife areas, with easy access to Ibiza Town and the airport. This location has made it a strategic base for some of the island’s most prominent events.
Planaxis as part of Ibiza’s evolving nightlife identity
With the return of Tomorrowland and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Ushuaïa continues to position itself at the forefront of Ibiza’s nightlife evolution. Planaxis combines established festival storytelling with the island’s open-air clubbing tradition, offering a production that reflects both global influences and local context.
As the 2026 season approaches, Wednesdays at Ushuaïa stand out as one of the clearest examples of how Ibiza continues to develop large-scale, concept-driven residencies that shape the island’s international profile.
