Amnesia Ibiza Brings Pyramid To Iceland Eclipse
Amnesia Ibiza Brings Pyramid To Iceland Eclipse for Aurora Stage takeover with Tiga, Art Department, Cici, and more
Iceland Eclipse Festival today announces Amnesia Ibiza Presents Pyramid at Iceland Eclipse, welcoming one of Ibiza‘s most celebrated underground brands to the festival for a special Aurora Stage takeover on Thursday, August 13. The takeover brings Pyramid into the wider Iceland Eclipse 2026 program, with Tiga, Art Department, Cici, Luca Donzelli, and Nitin set to play during the five day gathering on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. Taking place from August 11 to 15, 2026, the festival centers around Iceland’s final total solar eclipse until 2196, with only 3,333 guests attending across a program that connects music, culture, science, wellness, and exploration. The announcement also adds to a milestone year for Amnesia Ibiza, as the club marks its 50th anniversary while bringing one of its key underground concepts from Ibiza to one of the rarest festival settings of 2026.
The Amnesia Ibiza Concept Behind Pyramid
Pyramid began at Amnesia Ibiza in 2018, giving the club a concept that kept its focus on house, techno, and the kind of long running club culture that has made Ibiza central to electronic music for decades. It grew out of the same values Amnesia has placed around its 50th anniversary year: the club, the music, and the people inside it, with Pyramid carrying that identity through lineups that move across underground house, techno, minimal, and deeper club sounds. For 2026, that history feels especially present because Amnesia Ibiza is marking five decades while Pyramid continues as one of the club’s current concepts, making its move to Iceland Eclipse feel connected to the club’s present as much as its past. The Aurora Stage takeover takes that Ibiza club identity out of its usual setting and places it inside a festival where the location, capacity, and eclipse timing already make every part of the program feel more carefully chosen.

On Thursday, August 13, Pyramid will take over the Aurora Stage with Tiga, Art Department, Cici, Luca Donzelli, and Nitin, a lineup that keeps the focus on DJs with real club weight across house and techno. Tiga brings decades of electronic music history behind him, Art Department connects the bill to deeper underground house, Cici brings a current Ibiza presence, and both Luca Donzelli and Nitin keep the night close to selectors who understand how to carry a stage beyond quick festival moments. At Iceland Eclipse, that kind of booking has a different reading because the festival is capped at 3,333 guests and takes place on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula during Iceland’s final total solar eclipse until 2196. Instead of turning the takeover into a standard branded stage, the setting gives Pyramid a rare place to exist outside Amnesia Ibiza, with the music still doing the main work while the eclipse, landscape, and small capacity give the night its larger setting.
Inside Iceland Eclipse’s Dance, Learn, And Connect Program
Beyond the Aurora Stage takeover, Iceland Eclipse 2026 is organized across three main areas: Dance, Learn, and Connect, which gives the festival a wider structure than a lineup announcement alone. The Dance program brings together electronic acts, live projects, ambient artists, and Icelandic names, with Above & Beyond, ANNA, Apashe & Brass Orchestra, Booka Shade, Maribou State, Nightmares On Wax, Zero 7, GusGus, Vök, Daði Freyr, and Emilíana Torrini appearing across the program. The range also connects the music side more directly to Iceland, with international electronic names sharing space with Icelandic musicians and projects that make the location part of the festival’s identity, not just the setting.
The Learn and Connect sides bring in the science, art, wellness, and social impact parts of Iceland Eclipse, with astronauts, researchers, filmmakers, artists, and speakers appearing alongside the music schedule. Names such as Dr. Jeanette Epps, Dr. Sian Proctor, Ron Garan, Darren Aronofsky, Imogen Heap, Rick Doblin, Alex Grey, Allyson Grey, Android Jones, and Reggie Watts show how far the event reaches outside the usual festival format, especially with partners including EarthPercent, Space For Humanity, MAPS, Playing For Change, ReWilding Iceland, and the University Of Hawai’i Institute For Astronomy. Across Dance, Learn, and Connect, Iceland Eclipse brings music, eclipse science, visual art, environmental work, and community experiences into the same gathering on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, giving the five day program a stronger purpose around the eclipse itself.
With festival passes and accommodations now on sale, Iceland Eclipse 2026 is moving from lineup expansion into full trip planning for attendees heading to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula next August. The Amnesia Ibiza Presents Pyramid takeover gives Thursday, August 13 a clear club focus within the week, while the wider gathering continues to pull from eclipse science, live music, visual art, wellness, and environmental work across the surrounding landscape of glaciers, lava fields, volcanic peaks, waterfalls, and black sand shores. With attendance capped at 3,333 guests, the festival is keeping its scale limited for a rare Iceland eclipse year, giving those planning to attend a reason to secure passes and accommodations early through the official Iceland Eclipse channels.
