The Ibiza Index 2026

About the Ibiza Index

Ibiza is the biggest stage in electronic music. Every summer, dozens of clubs across the island — Pacha, Hï, DC10, Amnesia, UNVRS, Ushuaïa, Club Chinois, Akasha, and more — book hundreds of DJs across a six-month season. The Ibiza Index turns that booking data into the only ranking that lets you compare everyone on the island on the same scale.

What makes this different. DJ Mag's Top 100 is a public vote, repeatedly criticised for vote-buying. Resident Advisor and Mixmag publish editorial picks but never a ranked list. Spotify and Apple chart positions tell you who's streamed, not who's booked. We combine the three signals into one row so you can see the gap — and the gap is where the interesting stories live.

The "Booked Above Their Weight" badge. Some artists are booked far more than their streaming numbers would predict. Marco Carola, for instance, is one of the most booked DJs in Ibiza this summer despite a relatively modest Spotify popularity score — that's the "insider" signal. The opposite — high streaming, fewer Ibiza bookings — points to mainstream crossover artists who fill arenas more than nightclubs. Both are real signals; both belong on the chart.

The chart refreshes every Monday morning to reflect the prior week's confirmed bookings. Streaming numbers are pulled from Spotify and Apple Music nightly via their public APIs. Editorial coverage is currently shown as representative sample data; the full aggregation pipeline across 8 publications ships in v2.
