Inside the launch of Ibiza’s most ambitious new club

The [UNVRS] Ibiza grand opening marked a defining moment in global nightlife history. On Friday 30 May 2025, the island’s most ambitious new venue flung open its doors for the very first time. Welcoming thousands of clubbers for a night that redefined the boundaries of immersive entertainment. A bold new concept from The Night League, [UNVRS] isn’t just a club. It’s a living, breathing universe of music, art, and spectacle.

A future-facing tribute to Ibiza’s soul

Monumental in vision and hand-crafted in every detail. [UNVRS] is the latest venture from The Night League and Yann Pissenem, the creative mastermind behind Ushuaïa and Hï Ibiza. Designed as a club lost to time and reborn centuries later, the venue merges brutalist geometry with organic textures. Whitewashed stone, raw materials, and sun-kissed tones that root it in the essence of Ibiza itself.

Outside, visitors were greeted by a UFO sculpture crashed at the entrance. Inside, the descent down a sweeping staircase revealed a vast main room pulsing with light, performance, and sound—anchored by a crystal-clear, custom-built L-Acoustics system. It’s a club that tells a story as much as it plays music, with every surface designed to feel tactile, cinematic, and alive.

A labyrinth of movement and design

Rather than follow the classic single-room format, [UNVRS] offers a labyrinthine experience that blurs indoor and outdoor spaces. Every floor, every corridor, every terrace invites movement—mirrored walls and layered zones lead from one dreamscape to another. From the panoramic VIP balcony to the lush Gravity Garden and rooftop Sky Deck, the venue morphs into different dimensions.

The Wild Comet, a fully-equipped microclub hidden in the toilets, might be the best example of [UNVRS]’s playful spirit. With a DJ booth in the centre, club-grade acoustics, and sound-reactive lighting, it’s an unexpected sanctuary for the heads. The venue even features an exclusive food collab with VICIO. The world’s first burger club inside a nightclub. Where guests can order crispy chicken tenders topped with caviar.

Pushing boundaries with lights and sound

The grand opening was delivered in collaboration with High Scream, the world-class production team led by Romain Pissenem. Every moment was designed as a visual and sonic journey. Lasers sliced through the air on moving winches. Digital visuals pulsed across the walls, and smoke jets erupted in sync with kinetic lighting. Acrobats floated through shafts of light. LED pods emerged like spacecraft. The show wasn’t just world-class—it was otherworldly.

Laserblades, a new custom innovation, brought a brand-new visual vocabulary to the club landscape. Taking Ibiza production into an entirely new dimension.

Musical moments from another dimension

Carista had the honour of playing the first-ever track at [UNVRS], opening with Tornado Wallace’s euphoric “Bitter Suite (Symphony Mix).” That kicked off a genre-blending journey that moved from deep, experimental sets by Ahmed Spins and Adam Ten b2b Mita Gami. Through to Michael Bibi’s signature driving grooves—his triumphant return to Ibiza after a year of silence.

What followed were two generational back-to-backs: Joseph Capriati and The Martinez Brothers laying down two hours of heavy-hitting house and techno. Before Carl Cox and Jamie Jones delivered the night’s epic finale with a euphoric mix that ended on Bizarre Inc’s timeless rave anthem “Playing With Knives.”

A Sunrise to remember at The [UNVRS] Grand Opening

Elsewhere in the venue, the Wild Comet stayed lit until sunrise. Pascal Moscheni b2b Frankybeats, Salomé Le Chat, S.A.M, and KOKO kept the hidden room bouncing until local legend Paul Reynolds closed out the launch with a deep, rolling morning set.

This was more than just another Ibiza opening. From its layered architecture to its futuristic production and daring musical curation, [UNVRS] marks the beginning of something new. A place where the past, present, and future of clubbing collide in full force.
