If you’ve ever been to Ibiza before, the Mambo Brothers will certainly be a name that rings a bell. San Antonio legends, Christian and Alan Anadon have been a mainstay in the Ibiza scene for years now and have been an integral part of the rise of Cafe Mambo on the party isle. We had the pleasure of speaking with the duo about a number of topics.

Hey Mambo Brothers, thanks for your time, how are you doing?
Hey guys, thank you for having us! We’re doing great and excited about all the projects coming up this year. The Ibiza summer season is around the corner!

You grew up at Cafe Mambo listening to some of the best DJs, is there any one DJs in particular who you think has had the biggest impact on your own music style?
There are so many! Pete Tong, Luciano, Nic Fanciulli, Louie Vega, Roger Sanchez, Simon Dunmore, Keinemusic and so many more.

Are there any styles you haven’t dipped your toes into, yet you’d like to explore?
We’ve grown up with so many different genres around us but we believe our current sound fits best with who we are and where we come from, and that’s very important for us; to show our personality behind the decks. There are many styles we love, and we listen to lots of different genres, but we mostly play house music with Balearic influences, which encompasses some afro sounds, latin sounds and electronic.

What would be 1 dream collab in dance music and outside of dance music for you?
Alan: Music wise, we could say a dream collab would be with the South African singer and songwriter Toshi. Love what she is doing.
Christian: And outside of dance music, you are speaking with a food lover – maybe Santiago Lastra, a great Mexican chef behind Kol in London.

You are known for being successful DJs as well as successful entrepreneurs through Grupo Mambo, how do you balance your DJ life and your entrepreneurial life?
It’s not always easy but we have managed to keep a balanced life and with the help of a good team we can make our ideas a reality.
Of course, there are times of the year when we are more focused on Grupo Mambo and then there are times when we go on tour and DJ in for example Bali, Sweden, or Miami. Lucky us, we are born in Ibiza, the ‘mecca’ of electronic music, so we don’t have far to go to play at some of the best places in the world in summer!

What has been your top career highlight so far in your journey as DJs? And as entrepreneurs?
As DJs there are quite a few, all sets have something special. We’ll never forget playing in Miami on NYE, it was incredible to play in the same venues where we’ve seen loads of other huge DJs playing. We also loved playing for NYE this year in Dubai with Caiiro… as well as several times at Tomorrowland… we also went on an Australian tour…difficult to name just one!
As entrepreneurs, a continuous highlight is to see how our businesses are being loved and enjoyed by everyone who come! With a 100% family-owned business like Grupo Mambo, we put a lot of love and energy into all our venues. We love creating new concepts and getting great feedback from everyone is the best part.

What’s this new year looking like? Anything, in particular, you are most excited about? Can we expect new music?
A lot is happening at the moment, both music-wise and business-wise. We’ll be performing at Tomorrowland again which is always an amazing opportunity and exciting crowd to play for. We are also joining FISHER for his festival in Malta and have some other nice gigs lined up. We’ve also got some music in the making and will definitely keep you posted on that!

Thanks for taking the time to speak with me, do you guys have anything that would like to add?
Come find us in Ibiza this year! You can usually find us at Casa Maca, Cala Gracioneta, Hostal La Torre, and of course Café Mambo for great sunset vibes, and sometimes ever to see us perform. Otherwise find us at Tomorrowland or one of the other upcoming gigs. Either way, we’ll keep you up to date with everything Mambo Brothers via our Instagram @mambobrothers

Ultra Europe 2026 Drops Phase 2 Lineup

Crowd and fireworks at Ultra Europe in Split Croatia during the festival’s nighttime mainstage show for the 2026 Phase 2 lineup announcement.

Ultra Europe 2026 Drops Phase 2 Lineup with Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, DJ Snake and more confirmed for Split this July

Ultra Europe 2026 has dropped its Phase 2 lineup, adding more names to its return to Split, Croatia from July 10 to 12, 2026 at Park Mladeži. Now heading into its 12th edition, the festival’s latest announcement brings in Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, DJ Snake, AFROJACK, and Subtronics, joining a Phase 1 lineup that already included Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, FISHER, John Summit, and Amelie Lens. The update gives the 2026 edition a much fuller look across the Ultra Main Stage and RESISTANCE, while keeping more names saved for the next announcement.

Phase 2 Adds Trance, Big-Room, Bass, Techno and House to Ultra Europe 2026

The Ultra Europe 2026 Phase 2 lineup strengthens both sides of the festival. The new additions bring more mainstage names into the July weekend, while RESISTANCE also gets a heavier presence through techno and house bookings. With Phase 1 already led by names such as Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, FISHER, John Summit, and Amelie Lens, this second announcement gives the 2026 edition a fuller lineup across its main festival stages.

Phase 2 additions:

  • Adam Beyer
  • AFROJACK
  • Armin van Buuren
  • CamelPhat
  • DJ Snake
  • Hardwell
  • Jamie Jones
  • Nico Moreno
  • Oliver Heldens
  • Subtronics
  • HALO
  • Maddix

Subtronics Stands Out Among Returning Ultra Europe Regulars

While several Phase 2 additions are familiar names for Ultra Europe, Subtronics still gives the 2026 announcement one of its more interesting talking points. He played Ultra Europe 2024, appearing on the same day as AFROJACK and DJ Snake, so his 2026 booking is not a debut. What makes it worth noting is the context around the booking. Ultra Europe has long been associated with mainstage EDM, house, techno, and its RESISTANCE programming, while large-scale bass bookings have not been as constant in the festival’s Croatia lineup. Bringing Subtronics back after 2024 keeps that part of the lineup visible and gives the July weekend a different pull next to the festival’s more established returning names.

For many of the other additions, Ultra Europe 2026 reads as a return to artists with a longer history in Split. Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, AFROJACK, and DJ Snake have all appeared at past editions, while Adam Beyer, CamelPhat, Jamie Jones, and Oliver Heldens have also been part of previous Ultra Europe lineups in recent years. That matters because Phase 2 is not relying only on newness. It brings back names already tied to the festival’s mainstage and RESISTANCE identity, then places Subtronics inside that structure as one of the less typical bookings for the Croatia edition. For a lineup that already had Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, FISHER, John Summit, and Amelie Lens in Phase 1, this second announcement makes the 2026 edition feel more complete without giving away the full final lineup yet.

Ultra Europe 2026 Still Has More Names To Come Before July

With Phase 2 now out, Ultra Europe 2026 has a much clearer outline, but the lineup is still not complete. The festival has already confirmed a strong mix of mainstage names, RESISTANCE artists, and newer additions across the first two announcements, while the poster also confirms that Phase 3 is still on the way. That next update will likely help fill out the remaining stage programming, daily structure, and support acts as the festival moves closer to its July return to Split.

For now, the 2026 edition already has enough confirmed names to show how Ultra Europe is building its 12th edition. Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, DJ Snake, Amelie Lens, Sara Landry, Adam Beyer, FISHER, John Summit, and Subtronics give the lineup both familiar Ultra names and bookings that widen the festival’s appeal. More artists are still expected to be announced before Ultra Europe 2026 takes over Park Mladeži from July 10 to 12, with tickets and updates available through the festival’s official channels.

Marquee Nightclubs in New York and Las Vegas

Marquee Nightclubs in New York and Las Vegas Reopen After Major Renovations.

Tao Group Hospitality has announced the reopening of Marquee Nightclub New York this September, followed by Marquee Nightclub Las Vegas in October. Both venues have completed major redesigns that introduce new layouts, upgraded production, and international DJ programming in two of the world’s leading nightlife capitals.

Marquee New York: Third Full Renovation in 22 Years

Marquee New York has undergone its third complete renovation since opening, led by designer Jack Hotho. The venue now features a larger dance floor, a new LED system, and updated visual technology. The interior combines dark oak finishes with purple accents to create a refined club atmosphere.

The reopening month brings performances from Steve Aoki, Kaskade, Oliver Heldens, Francis Mercier, Chris Lorenzo, and Elderbrook, reaffirming Marquee’s role as a key stage for international DJs in Manhattan. According to Tao Group, the redesign balances respect for the club’s long-standing history with a forward-looking approach to today’s audience expectations.

Marquee Las Vegas: A Redesigned Main Room at The Cosmopolitan

This October, Marquee Las Vegas will reopen the main room of its multi-level venue inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. The remodel includes a 1.5-ton monolith LED screen, a moving LED centerpiece, and an enhanced lighting and laser rig designed to deliver large-scale visual production.

The new design is inspired by the amethyst stone, incorporating metallic wall coverings, bronze mirror panels, and velvet fabrics in burgundy and champagne tones. The reopening lineup features Fisher, Alesso, Steve Aoki, Pauly D, Loud Luxury, Benny Benassi, Cedric Gervais, and Claptone, continuing Marquee’s reputation as a headline venue on the Las Vegas Strip.

A New Era for Marquee

Noah Tepperberg and Jason Strauss, Co-CEOs of Tao Group Hospitality, highlighted the renovations as a way to update Marquee while maintaining its legacy in both cities. The two venues will continue to host world-class artists while introducing design and production standards aimed at setting a new benchmark for nightlife in New York and Las Vegas.
