Ibiza Rocks 2010 - The Line-Up
15 March 2010
We're back! Five years after starting our party on the White Isle, Ibiza Rocks returns in 2010 with our biggest summer line up yet!
So, what have we got in store for you?
Well, first off we're very proud to announce that none other than The Prodigy will be helping us celebrate our fifth birthday on July 20. We invite you to imagine what the world´s biggest electronic act will do with a warm Ibizan evening, a huge soundsystem and two thousand up-for-it devotees...
After their stunning appearence at Radio 1's Ibiza Weekend last year, the critically-acclaimed, chart-topping Florence & The Machine will be returning to the white island and we'll also be playing host to a solo show from Bloc Party's Kele Okereke, supported by the brilliant Delphic.
Meanwhile, this year's arrival of Mallorca Rocks will see Ibiza Rocks stalwarts Dizzee Rascal, Calvin Harris and Pendulum all playing back-to-back shows between the two islands.
All that plus shows from The Courteeners, The Kooks, Example, Toddla T and loads more still to be announced - see below for the full line-up.
This year we´ll be hosting an Ibiza Rocks afterparty at Es Paradis, powered by the same 'anything goes' party spirit that fuels the gigs. Unbelieveably this will be FREE to all Ibiza Rocks ticket holders (before 0130). Expect the best in mash-ups, bootlegs, 4/4 indie, anthems and everything in between, expertly delivered by Doorly and Nicola Bear alongside monthly residents Example & DJ Wire and DJ Dan from Propaganda. Much more on this soon!
Reclaim the Dancefloor isn't going away though; the night was such a success it now has its own home at Eden every Wednesday from June 16th.
The line ups for this are going to be SENSATIONAL.
Tickets for all Ibiza Rocks shows are on sale now so head to www.ibizarocks.com to make sure you'll be joining us for the best summer of your life.
And if all that line-up news wasn't enough to convince you to part with your hard-earned cash - then take a look at our incredible holiday and midweek deals!
Here's everything that's confirmed so far...
The Courteeners + DJ Toddla T
June 22 - Ibiza Rocks
Liam and the lads come to town with a brand new album and sound. Singer Liam Fray says: 'We can't wait to get back out there. People go to Ibiza for one thing and that's to have a f*cking good time. Let's face it, we definitely fit the criteria.' Radio 1 rising star Toddla T will be on board to get you in the mood with his 'Skanky Skanky' dancehall tunes.
Calvin Harris + Example
July 5 - Mallorca Rocks / July 6 - Ibiza Rocks
Calvin is back bringing his dancefloor favourites to the island for yet another year. He's even making history by being the very first act to play Mallorca and Ibiza Rocks back to back! He'll be backed up by London rapper Example who´s having a simply massive 2010.
The Prodigy - 5th Birthday Party
July 20 - Ibiza Rocks
We had to make this BIG. And we think you'll agree that we succeeded.
Ibiza Rocks 5th Birthday Bash will be headlined by the greatest electronic act the world. With a vision of creating a night for `dance kids who want to rock and rock kids who want to dance´ Ibiza Rocks was conceived with this very moment in mind. Happy Birthday indeed. It´s going to be emotional.
Dizzee Rascal
July 26 - Mallorca Rocks / July 27 - Ibiza Rocks
Back-to-back Balearic roadblock for this BRITs winner and Ibiza Rocks favourite who will also be swinging by Mallorca Rocks. Tickets will go FAST! Dizzee himself told us that he can't wait to play Ibiza Rocks again this year: "It was one of my best shows of 2009 - it went off big time."
The Kooks
June 6 - Mallorca Rocks / August 10 - Ibiza Rocks
The Brighton lads have been Ibiza Rocks faves right from the get-go and they'll be back to open to new Mallorca Rocks hotel before returning later in the summer for a set in Ibiza.
Florence And The Machine
August 24 - Ibiza Rocks
It's been an amazing year for the divine Ms Florence Welch - a platinum selling album, huge singles, headline shows and a BRIT award to put the cherry on the cake. Don't miss.
Kele Okereke & Delphic
August 31 - Ibiza Rocks
Kele from Bloc Party will perform one of his first ever live solo shows as part of his side project. He will be supported by one of the biggest breakthrough bands of the year, Delphic. Having smashed into the Top 10 with debut album 'Acolyte' these boys and their Balearic sound is a match made in heaven for the White Isle.
Pendulum
September 6 - Mallorca Rocks / September 7 - Ibiza Rocks
Yeah, you read that right, the masters of D'n'B will play not one, not two, but three shows over the summer including the closing party at Mallorca Rocks - we can't think of a better way to finish it all off.
