The History of Privilege Ibiza: The World’s Biggest Nightclub

Opened in 1994, Privilege Ibiza quickly established itself as a monumental force in the world of Ibiza nightlife. With its immense capacity and eclectic mix of electronic music, Privilege earned its place in the Guinness World Records as the world’s largest nightclub. Boasting a dance floor that could accommodate up to 10,000 people and an impressive overhead dome that housed a massive swimming pool, Privilege offered an unparalleled clubbing experience.

Over the years, however, the venue faced various challenges, including changes in music trends and shifts in the Ibiza clubbing scene. Despite its iconic status, the club struggled with maintaining its previous grandeur and eventually closed its doors in 2020, a victim of evolving tastes and the impact of global events.

The legacy of Privilege still remains significant. It was more than just a nightclub; it was a symbol of Ibiza’s pleasure-seeking spirit and its status as a global party capital. The blend of extravagant design and high-energy performances made it a mecca for electronic music enthusiasts and an emblem of the island’s vibrant nightlife.


In a bold move to reshape the nightlife landscape, the creators of Ushuaia and HÏ Ibiza are set to reimagine the iconic space during Summer 2025. The venue will be reborn as [UNVRS], the world’s first “hyperclub.” This ambitious project aims to merge the luxury and meticulous service of high-end nightclubs with the grandeur and scale of arena events. [UNVRS] promises to elevate the clubbing experience, combining cutting-edge technology with a high-energy atmosphere to create an unprecedented nightlife experience.

As [UNVRS] prepares to take over the legendary space, it stands as a testament to the evolving nature of nightlife, blending the rich history of Privilege with a bold, futuristic vision.
