Wayne Lineker has officially been confirmed as one of the celebrity guests at Legends Ibiza, a brand-new four-day festival that will take place on the island from 2 to 5 June 2025. This exciting event will bring together international icons from the worlds of sport, music and entertainment, promising a unique blend of competition and celebration in one of the most sought-after summer destinations in Europe.
Lineker, a well-known British entrepreneur and founder of the famous Ocean Beach Ibiza (now known as O Beach Ibiza), will take centre stage at the festival alongside his son Sean, a semi-professional padel player. Together, they will join football legends and entertainment stars for a long weekend of football, padel and golf tournaments, as well as exclusive VIP parties across Ibiza.
Wayne Lineker’s participation has been described as one of the top signings of the season. Speaking about the event, he expressed his excitement: “The island has been crying out for something like this. I am absolutely delighted to have been invited to be part of it”.
He also added, “Ibiza is the best place in the world. For both locals and tourists to experience an event of this calibre on such a unique and beautiful island is truly special. I might be 63 years old, but I still have plenty of energy. Who knows, I might even surprise a few people by beating those ex-professionals at football, padel and golf”.
The Legends Ibiza festival is designed not only to entertain but also to raise funds and awareness for major charitable causes. The event will support initiatives including the Luis Figo Foundation and the Red Cross, with organisers aiming to make a lasting impact beyond the island.
Legends Ibiza: a festival of sport, music and VIP luxury
Wayne Lineker will be part of a stellar line-up of legendary names, which already includes Luis Figo, Iker Casillas, Michel Salgado, Juan Sebastián Verón and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink. More world-famous figures from both sport and entertainment are expected to be announced soon, making Legends Ibiza one of the most talked-about events of the summer.
Figo will captain one of the teams and go head-to-head with another global superstar, who will lead the rival squad. Their match-up is being teased as the centrepiece of what organisers are calling “the party of the summer in Ibiza”.
The competitive element will culminate in a grand finale, with one team being crowned the official winner of the event. All competitions and key moments will be broadcast live worldwide, allowing fans across the globe to tune in and experience the excitement as it unfolds.

The four-day event will be spread across several prestigious venues on the island. Sporting competitions will be held at the Santa Eulalia Municipal Stadium, The Bubble Club and Golf Ibiza, while the luxurious Mondrian Hotel will play a central role in hosting VIP experiences and exclusive gatherings.
