World’s biggest nightclub to be transformed into an art gallery

Ibiza’s world-renowned superclubs will be transformed into art galleries for this year’s summer season. 

Award-winning nightlife venues UNVRS, Hï Ibiza and Ushuaïa Ibiza will launch the first annual Ibiza art expo called Culture Collective.

It’s set to be Europe’s biggest public art event – and aims to flips the traditional gallery format on its head.

The three superclubs will be exhibiting artworks from more than 70 international artists from this weekend until mid October.

These venues are owned and operated by The Night League, and the expo has been organised in collaboration with leading UK-based art collective W1 Curates. 

The artworks will be revealed for the first time on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 April at the opening parties for the clubs.

Crowds of thousands are expected to see the exhibition this weekend alone. 

The season-long art showcase will be laid out over vast spaces across the three venues.

It will include an open-air immersive gallery at Hï Ibiza showing a 70m long digital work by Sir Michael Craig-Martin, and photography by David LaChapelle – also known as the director of the music video for Gwen Stefani’s Rich Girl.

The exterior of the club will have two huge 10-metre high murals, by artists PichiAvo from Valencia, and UK artist Epod.

Meanwhile, the entrance to Hï Ibiza will be transformed with a large-scale artwork that combines physical painting and projection mapping to create a lifelike digital animation sequence.

[UNVRS], the world’s first hyperclub, which was voted the best club in the world 2026, will exhibit a 68m² stone engraving above its entrance with 6m tall faces framed by a gigantic Supermoon.

More exclusive art pieces are due to be added throughout the season.

On 8 and 9 of May, The Night League and W1 Curates will also present a series of talks, panels and events.

Tickets to the Culture Collective Ibiza art weekend cost €150 (£130) and include access to all nine panel talks on various art-focused subjects.

The ticket also includes entry to the three venues for club nights: Hï Ibiza on Friday 8 May for CamelPhat presents Summer of Love, and ANTS Day & Night at both Ushuaïa Ibiza and [UNVRS] on Saturday 9 May.

The art expo has been in the works for two years and has been curated and organised by London-based artist Mark Dale of W1 Curates, in partnership with Yann Pissenem of The Night League, the owner and creative force behind all the nightclub venues.

Mark said: ‘The intention for Culture Collective is to make art more accessible and showcase world-class art directly in front of a massive global audience. 

‘We’re taking art to the masses and re-inventing the concept of the ‘traditional’ gallery, placing art works in much more vibrant and dynamic settings and connecting cultures. 

‘Ibiza has long been a global crossroads of creative energy and by transforming the world’s most iconic club venues into living canvases we are redefining how art is experienced – and making it immersive, immediate and powerfully unifying.’

Yann Pissenem said: ‘At The Night League, our venues are more than clubs. 

‘They are cultural canvases where music, art and creativity come together to create shared moments of discovery. 

‘Through our collaboration with W1 Curates, we are proud to welcome world-class artists into spaces where diverse international audiences gather each season to connect, explore and encounter creativity in unexpected ways.’ 

W1 Curates have been running a public art exhibition in London’s Oxford Street for the past seven years.

It uses huge digital screens wrapped around a three-storey fashion store, showing the work of leading global contemporary artists. 

The Oxford Street art installation is the biggest permanent public art platform in Europe.
