Es Paradis is one of the most iconic nightclubs situated in
San Antonio, on the vibrant island of
Ibiza, Spain. Established in 1975, it quickly became renowned for its stunning interior, which marries classical
Roman-inspired
décor with lush greenery, crystal-clear dance floors, and its famous pyramid-shaped glass roof. Crafted by renowned
architect Lluis Güell—the mastermind behind some of
Ibiza’s most unique venues—Es Paradis is celebrated for its breathtaking aesthetics and its status as a pillar of
Ibiza's legendary nightlife.
Over the decades, while retaining its original location at the waterfront near
San Antonio’s harbor, the club has undergone periodic renovations to update its lighting, sound systems, and layout, but it has always preserved the original charm that makes it so distinctive. Es Paradis is perhaps best known for its infamous Fiesta del Agua (Water Party), drawing thousands of revelers each summer to dance as water rains from above, creating unforgettable euphoric experiences. Its cultural significance is considerable—serving as both a rite of passage for generations of clubbers and a launchpad for many careers in dance and electronic music.
Es Paradis’s open-minded atmosphere, inclusive policies, and the ability to balance classic
Ibiza hedonism with artistic innovation have kept it relevant despite the ever-changing clubbing landscape of the island.
Notable artists who have performed at Es Paradis include international DJs and performers such as
Calvin Harris,
Judge Jules,
Pete Tong,
Gorgon City, and Hed Kandi’s resident spinners, along with celebrated local legends like DJ
Alfredo,
Gustin and DJ Marta, who have helped define the unique soundscape of the venue over the past decades.
