As the world prepares to welcome 2027, there's no place quite like Ibiza to celebrate the transition. Marco Carola Presents Music On will be the highlight of New Year's Eve on the island, promising an unforgettable night at Pacha Ibiza. With a lineup that features some of the most renowned names in electronic music, this event is set to be a groove-driven extravaganza.
Join the festivities at one of Ibiza's most iconic venues, where music and magic blend seamlessly to create a night like no other. Get ready to step beneath Pacha's cherries and dance your way into the new year.
"The appeal is straightforward: a focused electronic-music night, a recognisable Ibiza venue, and a lineup built around one of the island’s established residencies."
Date, Hours, and Ticket Prices
December 31 Into January 1
Pacha's official event page confirms:
- Date: Thursday, December 31, 2026.
- Opening time: 11 p.m.
- Published finish: 6 a.m. on Friday, January 1, 2027.
- Venue: Pacha Ibiza.
- Minimum age: 18.
- Dress code: Casual.

The seven-hour event window leaves room for a full evening of music, but individual DJ set times have not been published. Do not assume that Carola will play continuously throughout the night or that a particular artist will handle midnight.
Standard Admission Options
Choose Your Entry Time
The official ticket page currently lists:
- Entry before midnight: €60.
- Entry before 1 a.m.: €70.
- General admission: €80.
The cheapest ticket comes with an arrival condition. If you choose the €60 option, plan to enter before 12 a.m., not simply reach the surrounding neighbourhood at midnight.
Leave time for transport, queues, and admission checks. Ask the seller what happens if you miss your ticket’s entry deadline; the reviewed page does not explain the late-arrival policy.
VIP and Drink Packages
Elevate Your Experience
Pacha also publishes these ticket options:
- Balcony VIP before 1 a.m., including three premium drinks: €125.
- Balcony VIP, including three premium drinks: €150.
- Backstage Dancing VIP, including five premium drinks: €350.
A backstage dancing ticket should not be interpreted as a private artist meeting. No meet-and-greet or photograph with Marco Carola is promised in the published description.
Online drink packages are also listed, including three waters for €18, three drinks or waters for €28, and five drinks or waters for €39. These are add-ons, not substitutes for admission.
Marco Carola and the Music On Lineup
The Artist Behind the Night
Born in Naples, Marco Carola is closely associated with techno and the development of Italy’s electronic scene. Pacha describes his sound through hypnotic tech-house rhythms and techno, with Music On built around his approach to the dance floor.
"His appeal is less about a sequence of short, isolated hits than a sustained musical journey."
For New Year’s Eve, that suggests a night centred on rhythm and progression rather than a conventional concert with a fixed song list.
Four Confirmed Artists
The Stars of the Night
The announced lineup comprises:
- Marco Carola
- Seth Troxler
- Ilario Alicante
- Frank Storm
Pacha’s event description and wider calendar name all four artists. Its smaller lineup block omits Seth Troxler, but the main announcement, artist listings, and independent Ibiza coverage consistently include him.
No additional guests have been verified, and the order of appearances remains unpublished.
Music On’s Ibiza History
A Legacy of Sound
Music On’s Ibiza history reaches back to its 2012 season at Amnesia, documented by contemporary programme material and recorded sets.
Carola’s residency moved into Pacha’s story in 2019, according to the club’s official artist page. In 2026, Music On continues as one of Pacha’s principal recurring nights.
The December 31 celebration is separate from the October 8 and 9 Music On closing parties. Those events have different lineups and prices; their tickets should not be confused with New Year’s Eve admission.
Pacha Ibiza and Island Discovery
Find the Correct Venue
The party takes place at Pacha Ibiza on Avinguda 8 d’Agost in Ibiza Town, in the Marina Botafoch area.
Use the exact venue when arranging a ride. Music On has appeared at different locations during its history, but the confirmed New Year’s Eve 2027 celebration is at Pacha.
This is an indoor club event, not a beach festival or harbour fireworks gathering. The official announcement promises DJs and dancing; it does not advertise a gala dinner, fireworks display, or included meal.
Explore Dalt Vila Before the Party
Embrace Ibiza’s Heritage
A winter Ibiza visit can offer more than nightlife. The island’s tourism authority describes the quieter season as an opportunity to experience its cultural heritage, villages, and local landscape.
In Ibiza Town, Dalt Vila provides a rewarding daytime contrast to Pacha. Its fortified streets and Renaissance walls form part of the island’s World Heritage setting.
Explore earlier in the day, with time for the uphill lanes and viewpoints. Comfortable footwear is useful for the old streets, and a relaxed visit is better than rushing through them immediately before dinner.
Leave Space for a Local Meal
Savor the Flavors of Ibiza
Reserve dinner somewhere you would enjoy even without the club event. A good pre-party meal gives the evening structure and avoids relying on food availability after you enter Pacha.
Ask restaurants about December 31, 2026 menus, serving times, and reservation conditions. A normal à la carte arrangement may differ on New Year’s Eve.
No confirmed restaurant partner or dining package is included in the Music On event listing. Food costs belong in your wider travel budget, alongside accommodation, transport, and any drink add-ons.
Practical Planning for New Year’s Eve
Arrive Before Your Ticket Deadline
The key decision is whether you want to be inside Pacha for midnight.
With doors scheduled for 11 p.m., the €60 early-entry tier leaves a one-hour window before its stated deadline. Do not plan your arrival for the final minutes if joining the countdown matters to you.
Prepare before leaving:
- Save your ticket where you can access it easily.
- Carry valid identification for the 18+ event.
- Review the current entry conditions.
- Confirm the exact destination with your driver.
- Allow time for admission procedures.
- Agree on a meeting point with your companions.
Plan the Journey Home
Safe Return Strategies
The official schedule runs until 6 a.m. on January 1, 2027. Arrange your return transport before the night begins rather than assuming a vehicle will be immediately available when you leave.
A central stay may simplify logistics, but the most suitable accommodation depends on your budget, group, and plans for the rest of the visit.
Ask your property about late access, reception hours, and transport contacts. If you travel farther across the island, confirm pickup arrangements and avoid relying on an unverified holiday bus schedule.
Do not drive after drinking. Choose a safe return option and keep its details available throughout the evening.
Budget Beyond the Entrance Ticket
Consider the Complete Experience
A €60 admission ticket is only the starting point of a trip. Consider:
- Travel to Ibiza.
- Accommodation.
- Dinner.
- Local transport.
- Drinks.
- Optional sightseeing.
- Any booking fees.
The official online drink packages can make costs clearer, but check redemption terms and what each package covers. Pacha advertises different categories for standard and premium drinks.
