The spring equinox landed yesterday and, honestly, you could feel it in the air here on the island. That particular Ibiza magic — the warmth coming back into the walls of Dalt Vila, the almond blossom still lingering in the north, the roads getting just a little bit busier — it's all here. And this weekend, the events calendar is giving us a perfect taste of the season ahead.
Whether you're a local who's been waiting patiently since October, or a visitor who's lucked into pre-season Ibiza (trust me, best kept secret), here's your complete guide to what's happening this Saturday and Sunday.
Saturday 21 March: Supernova Blasts Off at Las Dalias
If there's one event that defines the off-season party calendar in Ibiza, it's Supernova at Las Dalias and Akasha. Every Saturday from January through October, this party delivers something genuinely special — and today's edition is one of the most exciting yet.
The magic starts at 4pm in the garden, where entry is completely free until 11pm. Yes, you read that right — free. The garden at Las Dalias is one of those places that just works at any time of day: fairy lights strung through the trees, the smell of woodsmoke and something delicious from PaloSanto restaurant, and the kind of crowd that actually wants to dance rather than just be seen dancing.
Today's lineup is seriously impressive. Michael Mayer — Kompakt Records co-founder and one of the most respected selectors in electronic music — headlines alongside Ibiza resident Valentin Huedo, the beloved Silicone Soul (whose "Right On!" remains a dancefloor classic after all these years), plus Andy Bros and Vidal Rodríguez. This is a proper gathering of quality.
At 11pm the party moves indoors to Akasha, the intimate club beneath Las Dalias. If you haven't been inside Akasha, picture this: low ceilings, incredible sound, maybe 300 people maximum, and a dance floor that makes you feel like you're in on something that the rest of the world hasn't discovered yet. Pre-order tickets are €15 — genuinely one of the best value nights on the island.
Practical info: Las Dalias is in Sant Carles de Peralta, on the road to Santa Eulària. Garden opens at 16:00, free entry until 23:00. Akasha from 23:00, pre-order €15 via Ibiza Spotlight. You can also book a table at PaloSanto restaurant for the Dinner + Entry package (€60) if you want to make a full evening of it.
Saturday Evening: Ecstatic Dance Spring Awakening
Not every Saturday night needs to be about the club. If you're more drawn to conscious movement than DJ sets, the Ecstatic Dance Ibiza Tribe is hosting a Spring Awakening session this evening at the Hipódromo de San Rafael, running from 7pm to 10:30pm.
Ecstatic Dance is exactly what it sounds like — free-form movement, no alcohol, no phones on the dancefloor, guided by a DJ who takes you on a journey from stillness to euphoria and back again. The Hipódromo is a beautiful venue: a restored horse-racing track in the hills above San Rafael with incredible acoustics and that particular Ibizan energy that makes even the most self-conscious person forget themselves completely.
It's a perfect option if you're doing a wellness retreat, or if you simply want to do something different before heading over to Las Dalias later. The two actually complement each other beautifully on a spring evening.
Sunday 22 March: The Perfect Ibiza Sunday
Sundays in pre-season Ibiza are something else entirely. The pace drops, the light goes golden by mid-morning, and Las Dalias — our beloved finca in the north — delivers a full day of pure island goodness.
Morning: Yoga with the Las Dalias Community (09:30)
Start the day right with the Sunday Yoga session at Las Dalias, beginning at 9:30am. Open to adults, children, and families, this is meditation, conscious breathing, and gentle movement in one of the most beautiful garden settings you'll find anywhere in the Mediterranean. The hibiscus flowers are in full bloom right now and the garden smells absolutely incredible in the morning air.
Mid-Morning: Mercadillo Hippy (from 11:00)
After yoga (or instead of, no judgement), the Hippie Market opens at 11am and runs until 6pm. Las Dalias market has been running for over 40 years and it remains the soul of alternative Ibiza. You'll find handmade jewellery, flowing linen clothing, ceramic work, local honey and herbs, incense, crystals, second-hand treasures, and artisans from all over the world who've washed up on this island and never left.
The food stalls are excellent — grab a fresh juice, some hummus and flatbread, or a bowl of something warming from one of the organic food vendors. This is a proper Sunday morning spent well.
Afternoon: Namaste "Primavera Edition" (from 16:00)
As the market winds down, the garden transforms once again. Namaste Primavera Edition kicks off at 4pm with free entry until 9pm, with the Akasha club doors opening from 8pm (pre-order €15). It's the perfect Sunday afternoon garden party — dancing in the last of the March sun, surrounded by that intoxicating mix of jasmine, music and happy people.
This is genuinely one of my favourite ways to end a weekend in Ibiza. By Sunday evening at Las Dalias, you've usually met someone interesting, eaten something delicious, danced a little, and remembered why you live here (or why you keep coming back).
A Few Tips for Your Weekend
Getting there: Las Dalias is in Sant Carles, northeast Ibiza. There's parking on site but it fills up quickly on market days — arrive by 10:30 if you want a spot. Taxis from Ibiza Town take about 20 minutes and cost around €25-30.
What to wear: Pre-season evenings still get cold — bring a layer. The garden is outdoor and the temperature drops noticeably after 9pm in March. By midnight you'll be grateful for that jacket.
Book ahead: Akasha is genuinely small. Pre-order your €15 ticket via Ibiza Spotlight before the event — it will sell out, especially now that word is spreading about the quality of the Saturday lineup.
The vibe: This is Ibiza at its most authentic. No tourist buses, no superclub prices, no dress code. Just people who love music, nature, and each other. Come as you are.
The Season Is Just Beginning
What I love most about this particular weekend is how well it captures the spectrum of what Ibiza actually offers. In the space of two days you can go from ecstatic dance in an ancient hippodrome, to Michael Mayer playing until sunrise in an intimate club, to Sunday morning yoga in a flower garden, to an afternoon market that's been running since before most of us were born.
The big opening parties — Ushuaïa, Hï, Pacha, DC10 — are still a couple of months away. But honestly? Right now, in this sweet pre-season window, is when Ibiza belongs to the people who truly love it. This weekend is proof of that.
¡Que tengáis un buen finde! 🌸
