IMS Ibiza, presented in partnership with AlphaTheta, is set to return to the island, with its full programme of over 140 sessions, showcases, networking events and workshops now officially live.
Taking place across three days at Mondrian Ibiza and Hyde Ibiza, this year’s summit will bring together more than 200 industry-leading voices, offering a comprehensive look at the future of electronic music. Alongside the talks, attendees can expect a full schedule of wellness sessions, networking opportunities and events happening across the island.
Under this year’s theme, Reclaim the Dancefloor, IMS Ibiza 2025 explores a pivotal moment for electronic music culture. As the industry continues to evolve, the programme looks at how external forces such as AI, investment trends and shifting audience behaviours are influencing the scene beyond the dancefloor.
The summit, co-hosted by Pete Tong, Jaguar and podcast host Katie Knight, will dive into key topics including music ownership, technological innovation, community building and the global growth of electronic music.
A standout lineup of keynote interviews includes IMS Legends Award recipient Yann Pissenem, Sister Bliss, 2manydjs / Soulwax, Dukagjin Lipa, Maykel Piron, as well as artists Joseph Capriati and Vintage Culture.
The opening keynote from Steven Braines will set the tone for the week, while Maria Garrido will lead discussions on how audiences are responding to fully AI-generated music as part of a dedicated focus on emerging technology.
Additional highlights include a special RA Exchange with electronic music pioneer Suzanne Ciani, plus talks from a diverse range of artists such as Ahadadream, Culoe De Song, Eliza Rose, Josh Baker, Manuka Honey, Max Dean, MoBlack, Sama’ Abdulhadi and Todd Terry.
Major platforms and organisations including Apple Music, Association for Electronic Music, Beatport, Deezer, Resident Advisor and YouTube will also be represented, highlighting the global scale of the event.
Beyond the conference itself, IMS Ibiza continues to be one of the island’s most important networking opportunities. From curated lunches and sunset gatherings to meet-ups and showcases, the summit is designed to connect creatives, industry leaders and brands from around the world.
Across IMS week, events will take place at iconic venues including Amnesia Ibiza, Akasha Ibiza and Chinois Ibiza, among others. The Beatport Awards 2026 returns on Thursday 23 April at Hotel Mongibello, celebrating the global dance music community.
The week concludes with the iconic IMS Dalt Vila finale on Friday 24 April, held at Dalt Vila — a fitting open-air celebration set against one of Ibiza’s most historic backdrops.
