John Summit Announces Ibiza Residency: Where Will He Land in 2026?

The moment the global dance music scene has been buzzing about is here: John Summit has officially confirmed a major residency in Ibiza for 2026. The Chicago-born house music phenom dropped the massive news at the end of 2025, sending waves of speculation across the island and beyond. After a landmark 2025 season that saw him conquer some of the White Isle’s most iconic stages, the biggest question on everyone’s mind is: where will John Summit call home for his first full-season Ibiza residency?

A Monumental 2025 Season: Conquering the Island’s Superclubs

Last year was undeniably the year of John Summit in Ibiza. He didn’t just play on the island; he made a statement. His presence was felt with a series of high-profile, sold-out performances that solidified his status as a mainstage heavyweight. In June, he brought his acclaimed Experts Only brand to the world-renowned Hï Ibiza for an exclusive two-date residency. Taking over the revered Theatre, Summit delivered his signature high-energy, groove-led anthems to a packed-out crowd, proving his immense drawing power.

But he didn’t stop there. In September, John Summit achieved another career milestone with his first-ever solo headline show at the iconic open-air venue, Ushuaïa Ibiza. Sharing the stage with heavyweights like Patrick Topping, this event was more than just a party; it was a coronation. For any artist, headlining Ushuaïa is a defining moment, and for Summit, it cemented his legacy on the island, showcasing his ability to command its biggest stages. His 2025 Ibiza tour also included explosive appearances at parties like ANTS at Ushuaïa and Anyma‘s [UNVRS], demonstrating his versatility and widespread appeal.

The Million-Dollar Question: Ushuaïa or Hï Ibiza?

With a confirmed residency for 2026, the speculation is running wild, but all signs point towards one of two powerhouse venues: Ushuaïa or Hï Ibiza. Both clubs, operated by The Night League, have played a pivotal role in his recent Ibiza journey. A residency at Ushuaïa would offer John Summit a colossal outdoor stage, perfect for his larger-than-life energy and euphoric, hands-in-the-air anthems under the Balearic sun and stars. His successful headline show there in 2025 is a strong argument for a return.

On the other hand, a residency at Hï Ibiza, the reigning #1 club in the world, would place him within a technologically advanced, immersive environment, ideal for crafting a darker, more club-focused journey. His Experts Only takeovers in 2025 proved he can curate a unique and powerful experience in that space. Given his history with both venues, either choice would be a natural fit, promising one of the most anticipated new residencies of the 2026 season.

The end of the 2025 season was challenging for the island, with severe weather in October causing flooding and technical issues at several major clubs. While there’s no specific report of a John Summit closing party being affected, the resilience of Ibiza’s nightlife in the face of these challenges was a testament to the island’s spirit. Now, with a fresh season on the horizon, the focus is firmly on the future.
