Clubbing institution Cream returns to Ibiza this Summer for its 17th year on the white isle, and will once again be taking over Thursday nights at the award winning Amnesia.
As the island’s longest running UK club night, Cream still reign supreme, delivering a world class line up every week throughout the Summer. This year is no different, as they bring together some of the biggest and most exciting names in electronic music.
Ibiza favourite and long standing Cream resident Paul van Dyk returns to perform eight shows exclusively for Cream. He is undoubtedly the master of the Main Room, yet this year he will also be taking control of the Mixmag Terrace for three ‘special’ parties which will see him perform against a truck load of spectacular production.
More exciting news this summer is that Cream welcomes a host of new residents including one of the UK’s biggest dance acts Above & Beyond, who join the Cream family for six exclusive dates including a ‘Group Therapy’ album launch party on 18th August.
The Mixmag Terrace will be graced with two hot new residents. First up is Calvin Harris, back by demand following a stand out performance in 2010. Another DJ/Producer who has garnered masses of fans over the last few years is Dutch export Laidback Luke, whose trademark sound has given him stratospheric success and befits his world beating talents. He'll be bringing his ‘Super You&Me’ party to the white isle along with a host of super hero DJs including Wolfgang Gartner, Sidney Samson, Dada Life, Congorock and special guest vocalist performances from Example, Wynter Gordon and Grace Regine.
Other residents over the summer will include Eddie Halliwell, whose infamous sets seamlessly blend trance, techno, electro and house. He will also be performing his EDIT show on the ‘Mixmag Terrace’ for a very special one off event. One of the few artistes who can guarantee to deliver the electric atmosphere that Cream Ibiza has become famous for is award winning DJ/Producer Sander van Doorn, who joins the bill to perform three dates in the Main Room.
Returning for what is set to be another outstanding Summer for Cream is Dutch boy wonder Ferry Corsten, a Cream regular who is renowned for his unique up-tempo, big room trance and house sound, and where better to see him perform than in Amnesia’s legendary Main Room. Joining him will be John O’Callaghan whose high octane trance sound coupled with a much honed mixing style has seen him surge through the DJ ranks and become one or Ireland’s biggest musical exports.
For the first time ever Size Matters will be taking over the Terrace for a very special show on Thursday 14th July, and bringing with them an awesome line up which includes the Grammy nominated Dirty South, Steve Angello's sibling AN21 and Max Vangeli (who perform B2B) and Kim Fai.
Other artistes who have secured one of the most enviable gigs on the planet include Chris Lake, returning to the Mixmag Terrace after some amazing shows last summer with deadmau5, and also fellow mau5trap artist Michael Woods who has had a meteoric rise since playing his first shows with us last summer, Size Records DJ/Production duo Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, acclaimed Swedish DJ/Producer Marcus Schössow, Cream residents Gareth Wyn and Andy Mac, Main Room regular Adam Sheridan, plus performances throughout the Summer from Burns, Mat Zo, UNION, Ben Santiago, Jaytech, Sean Hughes, Jemmy, Antony Probyn and James Dutton.
Cream will be hosting 15 parties and kicking off their Ibiza season on Thursday 16th June with their legendary Closing party taking place on Thursday 22nd September.
