On the night of May 30, 2025, the island of Ibiza shifted on its axis as a UNVRS within a universe officially opened its doors on the White Isle. A UFO sculpture crashed through the front gates of [UNVRS], thousands of clubbers followed in its cosmic trail, and a new landmark in global nightlife was born. There have been countless opening nights in Ibiza’s storied history—but none quite like this.
From Concept to Cosmos: A New Vision from The Night League
The idea behind [UNVRS] wasn’t just to build a new Ibiza club—it was to redefine what a club could be. Conceived by The Night League, the same team behind Ushuaïa and Hï Ibiza, and helmed by Yann Pissenem, [UNVRS] is part nightlife playground, part architectural experiment, part living mythology. The structure takes cues from traditional Ibizan fincas, echoing the island’s past with whitewashed walls and natural stone, but launches itself into the future with layered, kinetic, sci-fi theatricality.
“From the beginning, our goal was to contribute something new and meaningful to Ibiza’s clubbing legacy,” Pissenem shared. “A space that celebrates the island’s spirit while looking boldly to the future.”
At the entrance, a colossal UFO sculpture sets the tone—hinting that this isn’t merely a venue, but an interstellar portal. Guests descend into the main room by way of a cinematic staircase that opens into an expansive space defined by massive LED-mapped walls, a custom-built L-Acoustics sound system, and a production setup that rivals festivals.
At UNVRS Every Space Tells a New Ibiza Story
[UNVRS] doesn’t have rooms—it has universes. Indoor and outdoor spaces flow into one another, designed with seamless, surreal precision. One moment you’re in the Gravity Garden, surrounded by lush flora under the stars. The next, you’re in the Sky Deck, with sweeping views of Formentera. The interior corridors pulse with energy, textures, and mirror effects that disorient and delight.
But perhaps the most surprising feature is also its most playful: The Wild Comet, a fully-operational club hidden inside the venue’s toilets. Outfitted with a functioning DJ booth, acoustic wall treatments, and sound-reactive lighting, it’s an architectural joke turned full-scale raving reality.
VIP is reimagined as a floating, inverted-U shaped balcony that stretches across the room. From there, guests view the entire spectacle unfold—a cinematic and sonic sculpture in constant transformation. And when hunger strikes, clubbers can experience the world’s first burger club inside a nightclub, thanks to a daring collaboration with VICIO. The standout menu item? €80 Chicken tenders topped with caviar.. While the internet has mixed reactions on this, we think it embodies the venue’s ethos: bold, unexpected, and indulgent.
Opening Night Was an Odyssey
With expectations high and thousands waiting at the gates, [UNVRS] delivered a launch event of legendary proportions. Production duties were handled by High Scream, led by Romain Pissenem, who transformed the venue into a multi-sensory odyssey of lights, lasers, and kinetic visuals. Acrobats sliced through light beams suspended mid-air, LED structures emerged like otherworldly temples, and laserblades carved dynamic shapes above the crowd with unprecedented visual fluency. Smoke jets erupted in bursts timed with sub-bass pulses, creating an immersive simulation of lift-off. It wasn’t just a party—it was a narrative of sound, light, and emotion.
The music matched the moment. Dutch DJ Carista christened the venue with Tornado Wallace’s “Bitter Suite (Symphony Mix)”, a track that oozed atmosphere and reverence. Ahmed Spins and Adam Ten b2b Mita Gami followed, layering energy and groove before Michael Bibi ignited the room with his signature underground charge.
And then came the giants.
Joseph Capriati and The Martinez Brothers went back-to-back for a thunderous two-hour session of house and techno. Following them, Carl Cox and Jamie Jones took command, delivering a marathon finale that ended with a rapturous dancefloor-wide singalong to Bizarre Inc’s “Playing With Knives.”
Over in Wild Comet, the energy never dipped. Sets from Pascal Moscheni b2b Frankybeats, Salomé Le Chat, S.A.M, and KOKO kept the hidden rave alive. As the sun broke over the Balearics, Paul Reynolds closed with a euphoric sunrise set that was as spiritual as it was sonic.
