Defected announces season line-up 2025 at Pacha Ibiza!
The party will run every Thursday from 8th May to 2nd October.
Defected media team said:”Defected reveals the line-up for its return to Pacha Ibiza for the 2025 season, taking over Thursday nights from 8th May to 2nd October. With the promise of delivering a summer of exceptional house music, Defected will showcase the label’s dynamic roster of talent and distil Ibiza’s unique sense of romance.
As ever, the label’s dedication to showcasing founding legends of the genre is demonstrated with the season’s line-up, featuring the likes of Lil Louis, Dennis Ferrer, MK and Carl Craig, while contemporary champions of house like The Blessed Madonna, Eliza Rose, Butch and SG Lewis will also grace Pacha’s decks.
“Defected’s return to Pacha this summer is all about bringing the best of house music to one of the world’s most iconic dancefloors. We’ve curated a line-up that represents the full spectrum of the Defected sound, celebrating both long-term selectors and the next generation of talent. Expectnothing but pure house music!” – Wez Saunders, CEO at Defected Fresh faces like Olive F, Rio Tashan, Ella Knight and Elliot Schooling & Liam Palmer fly the flag for the rising stars, while artists like Kitty Amor, KILIMANJARO and Djammin continue to expand the spectrum of house music partygoers can expect from Thursdays at Pacha this summer. Keeping things fluid, UKG representation comes from the likes of DJ EZ, Girls Don’t Sync and Todd Edwards adds another sonic layer to the season’s musical offering.
“Pacha is the original club brand we all aspire to. Once a family run institution whose creative vision was as much an appeal as the club experience itself. The celebratory illustrative artwork from the 70s and 80s reflected the decadent, flamboyant and Balearic nature of the culture of the time. The Pacha cherries are globally recognised, they’re clubland’s Nike “swoosh” – a symbol of quality, heritage, and integrity.” – Simon Dawson, General Manager at Defected
This summer, Defected will also pay homage to the iconic imagery from the Pacha archives with itsweekly visual identities. A union of two of the world’s most respected clubland brands represented by a series of playful collaborative motifs and characters, reflecting the diverse Defected party crowd at Pacha as they make their journey home to the dancefloor.
A staple of Ibiza’s music culture since 2000, Defected looks forward to joining forces with the iconic Pacha once again after a 13-year hiatus. Following a successful 2024 season of daytime parties, the label will pivot from the festival-style format, returning to late-night, after darkadventures for this summer. For the 2005-2012 seasons, Defected called Pacha its Ibiza home, now coming full circle to curate 22-weeks of parties at the world-renowned venue.
From Defected’s beloved residents to its future stars and superstar names, the line-up continues to demonstrate the label’s enduring commitment to inclusivity and innovation in dance music culture, all under Defected’s unique umbrella of house.”
