Marco Carola to Bring Music On to Pacha Ibiza for New Year's Eve 2026
September 08, 2026
Ibiza is already planning its New Year's Eve celebrations, and Pacha Ibiza has confirmed a major electronic music event to close out 2026.
Marco Carola will bring his celebrated Music On concept to Pacha Ibiza on Thursday, December 31, for a special New Year's Eve edition. The Italian techno artist will be joined by Seth Troxler, Ilario Alicante and Frank Storm for a four-artist lineup designed to welcome 2027 on the dancefloor.
The event is scheduled to run from 23:00 on December 31 until 06:00 on January 1.
Music On Returns for New Year's Eve
Music On has become one of Marco Carola's best-known party concepts and has maintained a long-standing presence at Pacha Ibiza.
The New Year's Eve event will give the concept a special one-night format, moving it from its regular seasonal schedule into one of the most important dates on Ibiza's annual nightlife calendar.
Rather than simply extending the normal Friday residency, Pacha has created a dedicated New Year's Eve lineup featuring four established names from the techno and electronic music scene.
Marco Carola Leads the Lineup
At the centre of the night will be Marco Carola, the Naples-born DJ and producer behind Music On.
Carola has been closely associated with Pacha Ibiza for years through his Music On residency, where his long-form sets and distinctive techno style have made him one of the venue's most recognisable regular artists.
His return for New Year's Eve continues that relationship and places his sound at the centre of Pacha's final major celebration of 2026.
Seth Troxler Joins the Celebration
American DJ and producer Seth Troxler is also confirmed for the event.
Troxler has been a prominent figure in underground electronic music for many years and has appeared alongside Carola during the 2026 Music On season.
His inclusion gives the New Year's Eve lineup another internationally established techno name and adds a different musical perspective to the evening.
Ilario Alicante Returns to Pacha
Italian DJ and producer Ilario Alicante will also perform.
Alicante is another familiar name within the Music On universe and has appeared at Pacha during the 2026 season.
Known for his connection to techno and club-focused electronic music, his addition to the lineup reinforces the event's focus on a powerful late-night sound.
Frank Storm Completes the Lineup
The fourth artist on the New Year's Eve bill is Frank Storm.
Storm has also featured on the Music On programme during 2026, including appearances at Pacha's closing celebrations.
His presence completes a lineup built around artists already connected to the Music On sound and gives the New Year's Eve event a strong sense of continuity with the club's regular season.
A Full Night Into 2027
The event is scheduled to begin at 23:00 on Thursday, December 31, and continue until 06:00 on Friday, January 1.
That timing means the party will carry directly into the first hours of 2027, allowing guests to celebrate midnight at Pacha before continuing into the early morning.
For an island famous for its summer nightlife, New Year's Eve provides a very different opportunity to experience Ibiza's clubbing scene outside the traditional peak season.
Tickets Already on Sale
Pacha Ibiza has already opened ticket sales for the event.
General admission tickets are currently listed from €60, while VIP zone bookings start from €350. The VIP booking price includes complimentary drinks equivalent to the booking value, according to the club's current event listing.
Prices and availability can change as the event approaches.
Pacha's Winter Nightlife Tradition
While Ibiza is best known internationally for its summer club calendar, Pacha remains one of the island's venues with a strong presence beyond the main season.
A New Year's Eve celebration allows the club to bring together visitors and residents during one of the most important dates on the international nightlife calendar.
The choice of Music On also connects the event directly to one of the most recognisable electronic music brands associated with Pacha during the summer.
An Early Look at Ibiza's New Year's Eve
With New Year's Eve still several months away, the announcement gives an early indication of the scale of Ibiza's winter nightlife programme.
Marco Carola's Music On is already a major fixture at Pacha during the 2026 season, with regular Friday events and a two-part closing celebration in October.
The December 31 event extends that relationship into the winter and gives fans another opportunity to see Carola and the wider Music On family in Ibiza.
Welcoming 2027 at Pacha
For electronic music fans planning to spend New Year's Eve on the island, the Pacha event is set to be one of the key dates on the calendar.
Carola, Troxler, Alicante and Storm will take over the club as 2026 comes to an end, with Music On providing the soundtrack for the transition into 2027.
The event also underlines Pacha Ibiza's continued commitment to programming major electronic music events outside the traditional summer season.
