Ibiza Rocks announce 2012 line-ups

For the last six years, Ibiza Rocks has been gradually introducing a more alternative vibe into the White Isle clubbing paradise.

With acts such as Arctic Monkeys, Prodigy, The Specials, Biffy Clyro and Florence & The Machine all performing at the now iconic venue, Ibiza Rocks have constantly delivered the hottest acts of the moment alongside the up and coming. In 2010, the Rocks brand took it one step further by introducing sister event Mallorca Rocks.

With music events, two hotels, bars, a fashion label, a travel company and boat parties, the Rocks brand is constantly growing and 2012 has even more exciting things in store. Alongside the weekly Rocks events, this year ‘We Are Rockstars’ has been introduced. W.A.R is an electronic charged DJ event that will take place weekly. Showcasing the most exciting and influential DJs around, every effort has gone into catering for the masses and making the Ibiza/Mallorca Rocks experience as action packed as ever.

This year we see a range of acts grace the Rocks stages including return appearances from Kasabian, Example, Mark Ronson and Tinie Tempah, and debuts from New Order, Ed Sheeran and Two Door Cinema Club. To name but a
handful.
