Pyramid Amnesia Ibiza

The days are getting longer, winter darkness is lifting and everyone is already dreaming of that first dance in Ibiza. Once again this year it is Amnesia‘s flagship Pyramid party that will provide that much needed release as part of the IMS weekend on April 28th. The entire industry will be on the island for the influential conference and that’s what makes this first party of the season so special and full of energy and excitement ahead of Pyramid´s full 18 week season announcement soon after.

Last year’s was an early highlight with its own special vibe and this year’s will be no different with Luciano b2b Arapu, Cuartero and Layla Benitez playing the Terraza and Amelie Lens, Klangkuenstler, Luca Donzelli and Mathias Kaden all playing the Main Room.

2022 was one of Amnesia‘s most successful seasons. The club welcomed hundreds of thousands of party people all keen to get their slice of the unrivalled experience the Ibiza powerhouse offers. As well as new tech developments there was another step up with fresh production and of course line-ups and residences that were second to none.

2023 will be another season of innovation but first is a warm up event with Pyramid, the in-house night that is now recognized around the world. It is a staunchly underground and music lead party where carefully curated and internationally acclaimed headliners play next to homegrown Ibiza talents.

Lined up for this one on the Terraza is a very special back to back that sees Cadenza boss and long-time electronic innovator Luciano pair off with minimal king Arapu, then comes the Spanish legend and Amnesia mainstay Cuartero and New York rising star Layla Benitez. The Main Room, meanwhile, welcomes Belgian powerhouse Amelie Lens, the Berlin techno sounds of Klangkuenstler, resident Luca Donzelli and Watergate’s Mathias Kaden.

This party is a great way to wet the rave whistle before the full-blown season opener which will be revealed soon, as will details about the mouthwatering 18-week season to commence.
