elrow Ibiza closing party presents ‘Dance with the Serpent 2.0’

This upcoming October 3rd at [UNVRS] will be the only opportunity in 2026 to experience the spectacular staging by urban artist Nychos on the White Island.

elrow Ibiza celebrates its final date at [UNVRS] in style on October 3rd. The famous Closing Party, which will start at 11:30 PM, will mark the end of a residency that has brought together thousands of attendees around music, art, and immersive production. This time, the event will feature the world premiere of ‘Dance With The Serpent 2.0’, the new evolution of the concept created together with the Austrian artist specializing in urban art: NYCHOS.

Top-tier lineup for the big farewell

In addition to the immersive proposal, the night will feature a curated selection of artists behind the decks. DJ and producer AAT, who will win over the audience with her groovy house, a sound that has made her one of the biggest promises of the European electronic scene. The B2B from Chelina Manuhutu and Tini Gessler, a meeting that will bring together two of the most influential figures in international tech-house and promises to be one of the highlights of the night. Ilario Alicante, one of the most recognizable names in the Italian techno scene, and as a final touch, Paco Osuna, a fundamental DJ and producer in the Spanish electronic scene and one of the artists most closely linked to elrow.

Last year [UNVRS] was a discovery for all of us. It was a completely new space and we had to learn to understand it and discover how far we could take elrow. This year we already know it, we know how it responds, and that allows us to play much more and be more creatively ambitious. Dance With The Serpent 2.0 is a good example: we have returned to the universe we created with Nychos in 2023, but now with the possibility of taking it much further and taking advantage of everything [UNVRS] offers us. For us, that evolution is also a way of showing where we want to continue taking elrow.

A record-breaking season in numbers

The numbers summarize very well the magnitude reached by elrow Ibiza during 2026. Throughout 18 consecutive Saturdays and 14 sold outs, the residency has deployed 6 creative themes and has featured 206 international DJs and 2,034 performers on stage, consolidating a program in which music, spectacle, and production have coexisted throughout the summer.

Added to these figures are 126 hours of uninterrupted dancing, more than 5,400 kilos of confetti used, and 90 confetti drops or explosions during the residency. A deployment that reflects the dimension of a season that will reach its final chapter on October 3rd.

Reaching the Closing after 18 Saturdays has something very special. We have lived this season week by week, seeing how each theme transformed [UNVRS] in a different way and, above all, how the public responded and made elrow their own every Saturday. The 14 sold outs are an incredible figure, but behind those numbers are thousands of people, a huge team, and many hours of work to ensure that every night was different. On October 3rd, we want to celebrate that whole journey and close the season the best way we know how: together, on the dance floor, and taking the experience to the very last minute.

Dance With The Serpent 2.0: the big premiere of the closing

The Closing Party will mark the world premiere of Dance With The Serpent 2.0, a new version of the visual universe developed in 2023 together with NYCHOS, an urban artist with his own language characterized by a unique approach to anatomy, transformation, and the representation of the body, where the organic, the human, and the imaginary coexist.

The Austrian thus returns to elrow to expand the concept created in 2023 and move it to a new dimension within [UNVRS]. The new production expands the original universe with new visual elements that will come to life on the venue's giant screens, increasing its scale and immersive capacity.

For the Closing Party, we are going to take Dance With The Serpent to a completely different level compared to what we created and achieved in 2023. We have expanded the entire universe we started building then, making it bigger, wilder, and more immersive, with all kinds of new elements coming to life on those giant screens. Dance With The Serpent 2.0 represents a great evolution of everything we created previously and, definitely, I recommend you don't miss it.

This upcoming October 3rd, Dance With The Serpent 2.0 will be the last great chapter of Enter the WORTEX, a season that has consolidated [UNVRS] as one of the great summer destinations in Ibiza and has reinforced the international positioning of elrow. The Closing will thus culminate a journey marked by constant evolution and by a creative alliance that continues to explore new territories.
