"Pacha is to Ibiza what Studio 54 was to New York, it is a pure disco. It encapsulates glamour, kitsch and hedonism" - Defected Records. "Pacha is a brand that has distinguished itself from other nightlife venues and has limitless possibilities. They effortlessly put VIPs and celebrities in the same room as clubbers." - Erick Morillo
Pacha has now become Ibiza's most famous international export. Not only the perfect showcase for the biggest DJ's and producers of the world, Pacha has been a playground, not only during the decadent 70's and 80's, but each and every year for notable celebrities and club personalities. Pacha is more than a nightclub, it is a cosmopolitan lifestyle that encompasses a hotel, restaurants, a record label, radio station, magazine, merchandising and more than 20 residencies worldwide from Barcelona to Buenos Aires and Majorca to Marrakech. It offers an experience that is sophisticated and hedonistic, exotic and cutting edge. If the first ever tour in Australia last summer is anything to go by, this will be the biggest and best series of Pacha parties we've seen. Expect the unexpected!
