Eden Club - Ibiza



Eden Ibiza was born in 1999, rising from the ashes of former San Antonio “Club Kaos”, and before that “Star club”.  Under new management, and after the entire building got re-built, the club quickly began to get noticed as a serious Ibiza player. At some point Eden pinched the apple logo of neighbour club Es Paradis and a healthy competition was born.

Eden has one of the most jam-packed party calendars of the Ibiza club scene, transforming each night to suit the various promoters who base their nights at the club. Regular fixtures throughout the summer include Clubland, Pornographic / In House, Twice as Nice, Garlands, Mondo Loco and Judgement Sundays.

The location really makes Eden - it is just (one almighty) stones throw from San Antonio's main strip of cheap and nasty bars, the ideal place to get tanked up before hitting the more expensive bar at Eden. It’s also situated right next to competitor club Es Paradis, which makes for some healthy competition between the two venues, resulting in better nights for the punters.

The club was updated in 2008, with a powerful sound system, some decent lighting effects and the capacity to accommodate around 5000 sweaty clubbers. The main dance floor has two sunken areas and a stage at the back and there’s a VIP area upstairs overlooking the rest of the club. Eden regularly fills up to pretty close capacity, especially on Sundays, although it rarely feels as jammed as some of the bigger nights.



Many purists might say Eden is not a true Ibiza club and British clubbers have been known to say they feel more like they're in a more lavish London or Manchester club at times. But don't let that discourage you, Eden is an excellent night out, especially if you hit the right night (Sunday) or during the week you're likely to get cheaper or even free entry which you won't find heading out of town. Just open your laptop and search in the internet for Eden Parties to find out what Eden is all about... If you can’t , here is a tip....

Es Paradis Ibiza


Es Paradis first opened its doors in 1975 and by the efforts of owner Pepe Aguirre it quickly became one of the forerunners of the Ibiza nightlife. With its original & spectacular décor, mainly white with its vast natural plantation, thanks to the work of designer Lluis Güell, the man also responsible for the design of Cafe Del Mar, Es Paradis is unique and considered as one of the most beautiful clubs in the world. The stunning decor was typical of the glory days of old Ibiza and the early days of the electronic music invasion in the late 80s and early 90s. By the mid-90s, Es Paradis was one of the main attractions for people coming to Ibiza for music and partying. DJs like Sasha, Danny Rampling and David Morales represented the best of those who played the club during the 90s.


Es Paradis has 10 bars , 2 dancefloors and boasts one of the best sound systems currently in existence. It is supported with 14.000 watts of sound and 300.000 watts of lighting in the two rooms. The Gallery (upstairs) and the exclusive VIPs area, transform the nights at Es Paradis into a unique spectacle of light, water, music and color. Its unique fountains, flood the central dance floor and turn it into a refreshing pool during the Water Parties.
Es Paradis' Water Party is one of the most iconic in Ibiza and has to be witnessed to be believed. It is a ritual amongst young clubbers to the island, a true baptism.


The exceptional landscape is covered by an enormous pyramid roof. It weighs over 120.000 kilos and each side can be opened during the day to provide vital sunlight for the living plants and trees inside. All of the world’s biggest DJs have played here. Todd Terry, Danny Rampling, Tall Paul, and Sonique to name a few, as well as celebrities such as Puff Daddy, Geri Halliwell, Jordan, and Jade Jagger graced the marble dance floors.



Travelling to Ibiza without a visit to the legendary Fiesta Es Paradis' Water Parties, is just not complete. Every Tuesday & Saturday throughout the summer you can dance away before witnessing the dance floor turning into one crazy swimming pool…
