Tiësto has officially announced a run of five exclusive sunrise sets at UNVRS Ibiza, scheduled for every Monday from August 3 through August 31, 2026. The announcement marks a major return to the White Isle for the Dutch icon and positions him as one of the standout names of Ibiza’s peak summer season.
Each event will extend into the early morning hours, with Tiësto guiding dancers from night into sunrise through a carefully curated musical journey designed to evolve across the month.
A Major Ibiza Return After Three Years
The residency marks Tiësto’s first full-scale Ibiza run since 2023, when he held a high-profile residency at Ushuaïa Ibiza. His return arrives amid renewed demand for extended-format sets, allowing the veteran DJ to explore deeper selections beyond standard festival performances.
By choosing sunrise sessions at [UNVRS], Tiësto signals a creative shift toward atmosphere-driven programming—an approach that aligns closely with his recent musical output.
Sunrise Sets Built for Musical Progression
Unlike peak-time club performances, the sunrise format allows Tiësto to move fluidly across styles. Each Monday is expected to feature guest performers alongside Tiësto himself, blending melodic house, euphoric electronica, progressive builds, and high-impact moments that gradually unfold as daylight breaks.
The series is designed as a narrative experience rather than a one-off spectacle, with each week adding another chapter to the overall residency.
2026: A Creative Reset for Tiësto
Tiësto’s Ibiza announcement arrives during a creatively pivotal year. In January 2026, he launched a new radio show titled Prismatic, debuting on January 2 following the conclusion of his legendary Club Life series, which aired its final episode on December 27, 2025.
Prismatic reflects a renewed focus on trance and progressive sounds, reconnecting Tiësto with the styles that defined his early career while recontextualizing them for a modern audience.
New Music Signals a Trance-Forward Direction
Just days before announcing the Ibiza dates, Tiësto released ‘Beautiful Places’ alongside Brieanna Grace—his first new single directly tied to his forthcoming body of work. The release followed November’s ‘Bring Me To Life’, another trance-leaning track that hinted at his evolving artistic direction.
Together, these releases bridge Tiësto’s past and present, reinforcing his status as an artist capable of reinvention without abandoning his roots.
Global Headlining Momentum Continues
Beyond Ibiza, Tiësto remains one of electronic music’s most in-demand performers. His recent and upcoming appearances include headline slots at EDC Las Vegas, the historic Giza Pyramid Complex in Egypt, and major festivals across late 2025 and early 2026.
This global momentum further elevates the significance of his Ibiza return, framing the sunrise residency as both a creative statement and a career milestone.
[UNVRS] Ibiza Stacks Its 2026 Season
[UNVRS] has quickly established itself as one of Ibiza’s most ambitious venues, assembling a formidable 2026 residency calendar. The club’s summer lineup includes John Summit on Mondays, Anyma on Tuesdays, Jamie Jones on Wednesdays, FISHER on Thursdays, David Guetta on Fridays, elrow on Saturdays, and Carl Cox on Sundays.
Within this packed schedule, Tiësto’s sunrise series stands apart—offering a unique time slot and format that emphasizes longevity, storytelling, and musical depth.
A Highlight of Ibiza’s Peak Summer
With five consecutive Mondays at the height of August, Tiësto’s [UNVRS] sunrise sets are shaping up to be one of Ibiza’s most anticipated experiences of 2026. Blending legacy, reinvention, and immersive programming, the residency underscores why Tiësto remains one of electronic music’s most enduring and influential figures.
