Cocoricò's GALACTICA Announces Final Ibiza Party With a Hard Techno Closing at Eden
September 04, 2026
Cocoricò's GALACTICA is preparing to close its first Ibiza season with one final night of hard and fast techno at Eden Ibiza.
The closing party will take place on Tuesday, September 15, marking the end of GALACTICA's inaugural Ibiza residency after a summer of Tuesday-night events at the San Antonio club.
The final lineup brings together Fantasm, KARAH, SANTØS B2B Gianni Di Bernardo and Parsa Jafari. The party is scheduled to run from 23:45 until 06:00. Tickets are currently listed from €60.
The closing event comes after GALACTICA established a dedicated home for hard techno at Eden throughout the 2026 summer season, bringing a succession of established names and emerging artists to the Ibiza club.
GALACTICA reaches the end of its first Ibiza season
The September 15 event represents the conclusion of GALACTICA's first official Ibiza residency.
The project began at Eden on May 26 and was originally scheduled to run through September 1. The season was later extended to September 15, giving the promoter an additional closing date at the end of the summer. The residency did not take place on September 1 or September 8.
The concept comes from Cocoricò, the long-established Italian club in Riccione, and GALACTICA, its hard techno-focused event brand. The Ibiza residency brought that identity to Eden for a full summer rather than a single guest appearance.
According to Ibiza Spotlight's event information, GALACTICA's stated focus at Eden was on hard techno and the contemporary European underground, with the club's Void Incubus Gold sound system playing an important role in the experience.
Who is playing the GALACTICA closing party?
The final lineup is headed by Fantasm, the Lyon-based artist known for an industrial and hard-edged approach to techno.
He will be joined by KARAH, a Rotterdam-based techno artist and the founder of Falsive Records.
The lineup also features a B2B set from SANTØS and Gianni Di Bernardo. Di Bernardo has a particularly strong connection to this GALACTICA season, having appeared at the opening party in May. Parsa Jafari, associated with Madrid club Fabrik, completes the closing lineup.
The B2B format gives the closing party a collaborative element, with SANTØS and Gianni Di Bernardo sharing the booth rather than performing separate sets.
Fantasm leads the final night
Fantasm is set to provide one of the central sounds of the closing event.
Ibiza Spotlight describes the Lyon-based artist's style as industrial and particularly heavy, making him a fitting choice for the final GALACTICA session.
For a party built specifically around harder forms of techno, the choice reflects the musical direction that has defined the residency since its opening night.
The September 15 lineup avoids moving away from that identity for the closing event. Instead, it doubles down on the harder side of the genre that GALACTICA has promoted throughout the season.
KARAH brings Rotterdam techno to Eden
KARAH is another important name on the final bill.
The Rotterdam artist is described by Ibiza Spotlight as a techno specialist and the head of Falsive Records. Her inclusion adds another European underground connection to the closing event, reinforcing GALACTICA's focus on international hard techno rather than limiting the residency to Italian artists.
The final lineup consequently brings together artists connected with several different parts of Europe's contemporary club scene, from Lyon and Rotterdam to Madrid and Italy.
Gianni Di Bernardo returns for the finale
Gianni Di Bernardo has appeared several times during the GALACTICA season, and his presence at the closing party gives the event a connection to its opening night.
He appeared at the May 26 opening party alongside Restricted, Jazzy B2B Jowi and Mattia Trani.
For the September finale, he will perform in a B2B with SANTØS.
That creates a neat bookend for the residency: an artist involved at the beginning of GALACTICA's first Ibiza season will also be part of its final night.
A season built around hard techno
GALACTICA's 2026 residency was designed to give harder forms of techno a regular Tuesday-night home in Ibiza.
The season featured a long list of artists from different corners of the harder electronic music scene. Among those appearing during the residency were 999999999, Angerfist, Reinier Zonneveld, Clara Cuvé, Charlie Sparks, Alignment and Andres Campo.
The range of bookings shows that GALACTICA was not built around a single interpretation of hard techno.
Across the summer, the programming moved through industrial techno, harder rave-influenced sounds, hard techno and adjacent styles, while maintaining a consistently intense club focus.
The residency made Eden a destination for harder sounds
The decision to host GALACTICA at Eden was significant because it added another clearly defined sound to the club's weekly programme.
Ibiza Spotlight's review of the May 26 opening described a packed dancefloor early in the night and highlighted the club's Void Incubus Gold sound system as a major component of the event.
The review also noted that the opening night moved between hardstyle, hard techno and industrial techno, with the production and lighting contributing to the atmosphere.
A later Ibiza Spotlight report from August also returned to GALACTICA, noting that the Tuesday series was continuing during the peak summer period.
The residency therefore developed beyond its initial launch, maintaining its Tuesday-night presence through the core summer months.
A different crowd for San Antonio
One of the notable aspects of GALACTICA's Ibiza season was the audience it attracted.
Ibiza Spotlight described the crowd at the residency as cosmopolitan, with Italian, Spanish and Latin American clubbers among those attending the opening party despite Eden's location in San Antonio, an area traditionally associated with a large British and Irish visitor base.
In its announcement for the closing party, Ibiza Spotlight similarly describes GALACTICA as attracting an international crowd to San Antonio during its first season.
That audience mix is relevant to the wider development of Ibiza's clubbing scene, where specialist electronic music concepts continue to attract visitors based on musical taste rather than simply location.
GALACTICA's Italian roots
The Ibiza project is closely connected to Cocoricò, one of Italy's best-known electronic music institutions.
Cocoricò was founded in Riccione in 1989 and has developed a long-standing association with techno and house music. GALACTICA developed from that club culture into a broader event concept that has appeared at major European venues.
The Ibiza residency represented a further step for the brand, taking its harder musical identity to a permanent weekly setting on the island.
Ibiza Spotlight described the partnership as a natural progression for GALACTICA after appearances at other European clubbing destinations, including Fabrik Madrid and E1 London.
What time is the GALACTICA closing party?
The closing party takes place on Tuesday, September 15, 2026.
Eden's listed event hours are:
23:45 to 06:00
The announced lineup is:
Fantasm
KARAH
SANTØS B2B Gianni Di Bernardo
Parsa Jafari
Tickets are currently listed from €60.
GALACTICA's final Ibiza chapter
The September 15 closing party will bring an end to GALACTICA's first full Ibiza residency, but the importance of the season goes beyond a single final date.
For four months, the Cocoricò-linked concept gave hard techno a dedicated Tuesday-night platform at Eden, bringing international artists to San Antonio and establishing a recognizable identity within Ibiza's increasingly diverse club landscape.
The final lineup stays true to that identity. Fantasm, KARAH, SANTØS, Gianni Di Bernardo and Parsa Jafari are not being presented as a softer alternative for the closing night. They represent another full-strength hard techno session designed to bring the first season to its conclusion.
For fans of the harder side of Ibiza's electronic music scene, Tuesday, September 15 will therefore be one of the final opportunities of the 2026 season to experience GALACTICA at Eden.
And after a summer that included artists such as 999999999, Angerfist, Reinier Zonneveld, Clara Cuvé and Charlie Sparks, the closing party has a lineup designed to send the project out on the same high-intensity terms with which it arrived.
