Martin Garrix returns to Ushuaïa Ibiza for thirteen Thursdays between 2 July and 24 September, marking an eleventh consecutive season at the open-air venue. The residency, which began in 2015, has evolved into one of the island's most enduring partnerships, built on consistent programming and a relationship between artist, venue and audience that has deepened across a decade.
The Dutch producer's trajectory at Ushuaïa mirrors his broader career arc. From warming up for David Guetta to securing his own residency at twenty years old, Garrix became the youngest artist to top DJ Mag's Top 100 poll, a position he has claimed five times—a record within the publication's history. His 2013 breakthrough "Animals" established a sonic template that defined main stage aesthetics for years, while subsequent collaborations with Dua Lipa, Khalid, Bono and The Edge have expanded his palette beyond festival-focused production.

The 2025 season operated under the X concept, a framework acknowledging ten years at the venue. Programming spanned electro house, future house and broader house derivatives, featuring artists including DubVision, Oliver Heldens, Tchami, Benny Benassi and Roger Sanchez. The lineup reflected Garrix's curatorial approach: energetic, melodic, and anchored in accessibility rather than underground exploration.
For 2026, a new concept arrives without advance detail, continuing the residency's pattern of visual and thematic renewal. Ushuaïa's infrastructure—its transition from daylight to sunset, large-scale audiovisual production, and open-air architecture—provides the framework within which each Thursday unfolds. The venue, part of The Night League's portfolio and ranked the highest outdoor club in DJ Mag's 2025 poll, positions itself as festival experience within club parameters.

Beyond Ibiza, Garrix's schedule expands. Three consecutive nights at Los Angeles State Historic Park in 2025 preceded the announcement of the Martin Garrix Americas Tour, spanning sixteen cities across the United States, Central and South America from May to December 2026. His label STMPD RCRDS, founded in 2016, continues as a platform for emerging electronic talent, while streaming numbers—12.9 billion on Spotify, multiple singles surpassing one billion individually—affirm commercial reach.
The eleventh season at Ushuaïa consolidates a partnership defined by longevity within an industry characterized by transience. Thursdays remain, as they have for a decade, synonymous with Garrix—a fixture within Ibiza's weekly architecture where consistency and familiarity function as assets rather than limitations.
Tickets for Martin Garrix residency at Ushuaïa Ibiza running between 2 July and 24 September are already available on sale now on theushuaiaexperience.com.
