Pacha is one the world's most celebrated clubbing franchises and has its home in Ibiza. The first Pacha club was opened in Sitges outside Barcelona in 1966. The Ibiza club, however, is the most well-known and prestigious venue today and is one of two of the island's top clubs located in Ibiza Town, the other being El Divino which is on the marina just a couple of blocks away. Pacha Ibiza was voted no. 4 in a poll of most popular nightclubs in 2006 conducted by DJ Magazine[1]

Pacha Ibiza

The club which opened in 1973 has undergone several rebuildings and enlargements and is one of (if not the) island's most famous and modern nightclubs. Its location is near the harbor in Ibiza Town. Pacha is the only major Ibiza nightclub which doesn't close its doors during the winter season. The club's capacity is 3,500 guests. Sarah Main is the current resident DJ. However, the Ibizan club is best known for nights such as "Pure Pacha" hosted by "Superstar" DJ's such as Pete Tong, every night during the summer months. The club was also featured in the 2004 movie It's All Gone Pete Tong. Musically, '‘Pacha’' is best known for house music but has five different rooms incorporating other musical styles. DJ Steve Lawler comments about Pacha in an interview with Ministry of Sound in 2006 that, "Pacha’s a great club with an amazing sound system and by far the best dancers / performers in the world"[2].

Pacha Magazine

There is also a Pacha Magazine releasing four issues a year. It is also available to subscribers as PDF download.
