Made (in)famous by Monday’s day-into-night tech-house and techno throwdown Circoloco, DC-10 boasts a storied legacy that has seen its reputation rise in tandem with that party. Post-pandemic, the old farmhouse between Ibiza Town and Playa d’en Bossa returned with tangible vigour, its weekly listings again focused on line-ups aimed at heads down dancing — a stark contrast to an island scene that has perhaps never felt more commercial.
In addition to the flagship event, other dates of note in summer 2022 included the first-ever session Amelie Lens has hosted in the Balearics, Exhale, Patrick Topping’s Trick, and Solid Grooves with Michael Bibi, PAWSA and co. Split between the iconic terrace, an open-air garden where music plays out to the sound of planes flying overhead, and the sweatbox main room where things tend to get darker and tougher, it’s hard to know where Ibiza would be today without DC-10.
