Paco Osuna unveils his Hï Ibiza NOW HERE takeover lineup with Archie Hamilton, Enzo Siragusa, Melanie Ribbe and Andres Campo on 17 May 2026.
A Milestone Framed as a Statement
On 17 May, Paco Osuna returns to Hï Ibiza with a format that extends beyond a conventional headline appearance. For one night, his NOW HERE concept takes control of the entire venue — Theatre, Club Room and Wild Corner — marking the fifth anniversary of a residency that has gradually established itself as one of the island’s most consistent and clearly defined propositions.
This is not a retrospective. It is a recalibration point. Over five years, NOW HERE has evolved from a weekly residency into a broader artistic framework, one that treats the dancefloor as a space of real-time construction rather than pre-defined performance. The takeover reflects that trajectory: a multi-room experience built around a single idea — presence.
NOW HERE: A Philosophy Built in Real Time
Since its arrival at Hï Ibiza in 2022, NOW HERE has operated with a distinct logic. It rejects fixed narratives in favour of fluidity, where each set unfolds through interaction rather than structure. The approach is intuitive, but not improvised — rooted in a deep understanding of timing, tension and collective response.
For Osuna, whose relationship with Ibiza dates back to the late 1990s, the concept carries a personal dimension. The island is not just a setting, but a formative environment that shaped his approach to DJing: long sets, gradual progression, and a focus on the dancefloor as a shared organism.
NOW HERE extends that philosophy. Music becomes a language of connection, stripped of excess framing, where the emphasis lies on what happens between records — transitions, reactions, and the subtle shifts that define a night.

The Theatre: Precision and Dialogue
At the centre of the takeover, the Theatre hosts a lineup aligned with this ethos. Osuna is joined by Archie Hamilton, whose refined interpretation of UK underground house is built on restraint and detail, and Enzo Siragusa, whose minimal framework privileges groove over immediacy.
Alongside them, Iglesias introduces a more contemporary, high-energy dimension, while Melanie Ribbe brings a melodic sensibility that expands the emotional range of the room. RSQUARED complete the lineup with a versatile, groove-led approach that aligns with the night’s central principle: continuity over fragmentation.
Within this configuration, the Theatre becomes less a stage than a system — a space where individual styles converge into a coherent, evolving narrative shaped in real time.
The Club Room: Energy and Impact
In parallel, the Club Room shifts the focus toward intensity. Andres Campo leads the room with a high-impact techno approach defined by directness and physical energy. Known for tracks such as “¿Dónde Está El After?” and “Demente,” his sets operate on immediacy — a contrast to the slower, more progressive construction of the Theatre.
His presence introduces a different tempo without breaking the overall coherence of the takeover. The dialogue between rooms becomes part of the experience itself, offering two interpretations of the same principle: connection through rhythm.
Additional guests, yet to be announced, are expected to extend this dynamic, reinforcing the Club Room’s role as a space for release within the broader NOW HERE framework.

The Wild Corner: Ibiza’s Living Memory
Away from the main rooms, the Wild Corner hosts Pandora, led by DJ Oliver. Long regarded as one of the island’s most authentic expressions of local culture, Pandora introduces a Balearic counterpoint to the night.
Here, the programming moves between house classics, unexpected selections and spontaneous moments, maintaining a sense of unpredictability that contrasts with the precision of the larger rooms. It functions as a reminder that Ibiza’s identity has always been built on coexistence — between past and present, structure and freedom.
Technology Serving Emotion
Osuna’s work has long been associated with a forward-thinking approach to DJing, particularly through his integration of technology into performance. His sets often incorporate advanced layering and live manipulation, blurring the line between DJ and live act.
For this takeover, that dimension is reinforced through a bespoke production designed specifically for the Theatre. Visuals and lighting are not treated as decorative elements, but as extensions of the musical narrative — amplifying transitions, reinforcing tension, and supporting the overall flow of the night.
The objective remains consistent: technology in service of emotion, not spectacle.
Beyond a Single Night
While the 17 May takeover stands as a focal point, it also signals the continuation of NOW HERE across the summer. From 2 June to 6 October, the concept returns weekly to the Club Room, maintaining its position as one of the island’s most stable and recognisable residencies.
Over time, NOW HERE has expanded beyond Ibiza, developing into an international platform with events across Europe and the Americas. Yet its core remains unchanged. Each iteration is built around the same principle: a direct relationship between artist and dancefloor, unmediated by excess structure.
Five Years In, A Clear Identity
What distinguishes NOW HERE is not scale, but consistency. In an environment where concepts often evolve toward complexity, Osuna’s approach moves in the opposite direction — refining rather than expanding, focusing rather than diversifying.
The five-year milestone is not framed as achievement, but as confirmation. The concept has reached a point of clarity, where its identity no longer requires definition.
On 17 May, that clarity takes physical form across the entirety of Hï Ibiza. Three rooms, multiple energies, one underlying system: sound as a shared language, unfolding in the present moment.
Tickets for Paco Osuna NOW HERE Hï Ibiza Takeover on Sunday May 17th 2026 are already available on sale now on hiibiza.com.
