Paul van Dyk will return to Ibiza on Thursday, September 24, as SHINE takes over 528 Ibiza for a full-day-to-night event built around trance, techno and progressive electronic music.

The event is scheduled from 18:00 until 04:00 and will use three stages, moving from the open-air Garden Stage into the venue's indoor spaces as the evening progresses.

The lineup brings together several established names from the trance scene, including Paul van Dyk, Aly & Fila, Alex M.O.R.P.H., Bryan Kearney, Ciaran McAuley and David Forbes.

Paul van Dyk leads the Garden Stage

Paul van Dyk will headline the Garden Stage alongside a lineup focused heavily on trance.

The German DJ and producer will be joined by Aly & Fila, Alex M.O.R.P.H., Bryan Kearney, Ciaran McAuley, David Forbes, Fuenka and Anunnakis.

The programming brings together artists associated with different strands of trance, from more melodic and progressive sounds to harder and more energetic styles.

A three-stage event

SHINE is not being presented simply as a conventional club night.

The 2026 edition has been expanded into a three-stage format, with the Garden Stage providing the outdoor opening section before the event moves indoors later in the night.

The official SHINE announcement describes the concept as an open-air-to-club experience, with the venue's theatre arena also being incorporated into this year's event.

The schedule runs for 10 hours, from 18:00 until 04:00.

One More Time takes over another stage

The event also includes a One More Time programme.

Seb Fontaine leads the lineup, joined by Edele Andaya, Stephen Kirkwood and Ibiza Trance Event DJs.

This adds another layer to the programme, extending the event beyond a single style of trance and bringing a separate DJ-focused strand into the SHINE takeover.

A return to 528 Ibiza

The September event marks SHINE's return to 528 Ibiza following its previous appearance at the venue.

Paul van Dyk said the first SHINE event at 528 Ibiza in 2025 had been particularly meaningful because of the location, atmosphere and connection with the audience.

The 2026 edition builds on that format by expanding the event across three stages.

From sunset into the night

The timing is designed to take advantage of the venue's outdoor setting before moving into the club environment.

The event begins at 18:00, giving the Garden Stage several hours of daylight and sunset programming.

From 23:00, the focus shifts further toward the indoor programme, creating a transition from the outdoor setting into the late-night part of the event.

A strong trance-focused lineup

For trance fans, the combination of Paul van Dyk, Aly & Fila, Alex M.O.R.P.H., Bryan Kearney, Ciaran McAuley and David Forbes gives the event a distinctly genre-focused identity.

Paul van Dyk has been closely associated with the SHINE brand since its creation, and the Ibiza edition continues that concept with a lineup spanning several generations of electronic artists.

The programme also includes Fuenka and Anunnakis, adding further variety to the Garden Stage.

SHINE's Ibiza connection

SHINE has established itself as a Paul van Dyk-led concept centred on trance and related electronic sounds.

The 2026 Ibiza event is a single-day takeover rather than a weekly residency, making it a standalone September date at 528 Ibiza.

The official announcement describes the event as bringing together trance, techno and progressive music across its three stages.

September 24 at 528 Ibiza

The confirmed details for the event are:

• Event: SHINE Ibiza

• Date: Thursday, September 24, 2026

• Venue: 528 Ibiza

• Time: 18:00-04:00

• Format: Three stages

• Garden Stage: Paul van Dyk, Aly & Fila, Alex M.O.R.P.H., Bryan Kearney, Ciaran McAuley, David Forbes, Fuenka and Anunnakis

What makes this year's edition different

The main change for 2026 is the scale of the 528 Ibiza takeover.

Rather than limiting SHINE to the outdoor Garden Stage and club areas, the event is using three stages, including the venue's theatre arena.

That gives the September 24 event a broader format while retaining the trance-focused identity associated with SHINE and Paul van Dyk.

Paul van Dyk returns to Ibiza

For Paul van Dyk, the September 24 event represents another Ibiza appearance with SHINE, this time in an expanded 528 Ibiza format.

With a programme running from early evening until 04:00 and three stages covering trance, techno and progressive sounds, SHINE is set to bring its 2026 Ibiza edition to the island on September 24.

The event is scheduled as a one-day takeover, with Paul van Dyk at the centre of a lineup that brings together established trance names and a second programme under the One More Time banner.
