Everything you need to know about BBC Radio 1 Dance Live in Ibiza

The busiest and most famous weekend of the year is upon us.

We have officially reached peak summer here on the White Isle, which can be marked by a few things in particular. Whether that be the scorching temperatures, packed out clubs, mad traffic, hundreds of bodies on the floor of Ibiza airport and the annual pilgrimage of BBC Radio 1 with its famous Ibiza Dance weekend.

Since 1995, the UK's biggest radio station has called into Ibiza at various venues for one big weekend of top tier dance music brought to you by some of the biggest DJs of the moment.

We are now just a few days away from what is known to be the busiest weekend on the island and we couldn't be more excited. Whether you're a long-reigning attendee or a total newbie, we're here to talk you through what you can expect over the course of the three days.
