Amnesia Ibiza will celebrate the arrival of the new year with a special edition at Cabo Beach in Cape Town, where techno pioneer Sven Väth will perform for the first time in South Africa. This milestone marks the beginning of the 50th anniversary celebrations of Amnesia, one of the most influential temples of electronic music worldwide.
The event repeats scenario after the success of the previous edition: a seaside setting that combines sunset, countdown and dawn in a single ritual. With a first class production and the unmistakable seal of Ibiza, Amnesia moves its spirit from the Terrace to the Cape, with a proposal focused on sound, community and freedom on the dance floor.
Sven Väth, the soul of techno
A key figure in the European techno movement, Väth is known for his connection with the audience, his championing of vinyl and his extensive sets loaded with musical narrative. His South African debut promises to be a unique experience: a night that begins bathed in gold at sunset and culminates in euphoria as the clock strikes the turn of the year.
International line-up and local talent
The Amnesia New Year’s Eve South Africa lineup completes a diverse lineup with international and local artists that will bring freshness and rhythm to the celebration. Argia, Both Entities, Clint Lee, Dags, Lila Gouws, Los Amigos, Ricardo Da Costa, Sonic Bloom and Talia Zaken will perform in a sonic journey that will fuse the global spirit of techno with South African energy.
Cabo Beach: the ideal setting
With its European design, large open areas and views of the Atlantic Ocean, Cabo Beach becomes the perfect place to welcome 2026 to the rhythm of Amnesia. A space designed to move, meet and get carried away by the music, in a celebration that symbolizes the international expansion of the iconic Ibizan club.
