With Summer 2025 coming to a close and the island entering its usual winter lull, the industry is back to its favorite ritual: deciphering signals, movements and internal conversations to anticipate what’s coming next season.
Although there are no official confirmations, promoters, managers and programmers agree that there are already several names on the radar. Everything points to the fact that 2026 could mark the arrival of a new generation of powerful residencies.
Adriatique
The Swiss have been sounding as candidates for several seasons, but this winter the rumors have gained real strength. If confirmed, they could sign one of the most anticipated shows of the Ibiza calendar in 2026.
ANOTR
Perhaps the most anticipated name on the list. After years of constant presence, sold out dates and an unstoppable international hype, the Dutch duo seems closer than ever to become an official resident of the island.
Francis Mercier
He has had a brilliant year both inside and outside Ibiza. His sustained growth and growing fan base position him as a natural candidate to open a residency next summer.
John Summit
His global impact and his connection with Ibiza place him among the strongest names of next summer. Within the industry there is talk of a weekly large format project that would mark a logical step in his meteoric international evolution.
Josh Baker
The British DJ has been growing for years in Ibiza and 2026 could be his definitive consolidation. His presence on the island has increased steadily, and different sources indicate that he is already close to establishing his first official residence.
Tiësto
The most surprising rumor… but also one of the most talked about. After his return to trance and a renewed interest in Europe, the possibility of Tiësto returning to Ibiza with a special residency has become one of the headlines of the winter.
The biggest rumor: Joseph Capriati’s possible return to Amnesia
After leaving Amnesia in 2024, moving Metamorfosi to Hï Ibiza and starring in one of the most relevant moves in the industry, rumors now point to a possible return of the Italian to the Terrace. His team has shown recent signs linked to the room, he keeps Amnesia content highlighted on networks and several sources assure that the club is reinforcing its techno identity in the face of 2026.
A Metamorfosi comeback would be a strategic coup for the island’s programming and would return Capriati to one of the spaces where he signed some of his most memorable sets.
For now, everything remains in the realm of rumor, but there is consensus: the pieces are moving. And although nothing is confirmed until spring, Ibiza 2026 could be a season marked by new residencies, unexpected changes and fresh faces ready to lead the next era of clubbing on the island.
