IMS Ibiza 2027: What to Expect from International Music Summit

November 12, 2026

Come for the big ideas. Stay for the music and culture. All in one place.

‍

IMS Ibiza, in partnership with AlphaTheta, returns from 21–23 April 2027, bringing the global electronic music industry together for three days of conversation, connection and collaboration.

‍

Taking place at Mondrian Ibiza and Hyde Ibiza in Cala Llonga, the International Music Summit brings together the people shaping electronic music to exchange ideas, challenge perspectives and explore what's next for the industry.

‍

From artists and producers to agents, managers, record labels, promoters, technology innovators and entrepreneurs, IMS Ibiza connects the many different parts of the global electronic music community.

‍

With keynote interviews, industry discussions, practical workshops, technology demonstrations and networking opportunities, the summit offers a space to learn, build relationships and take part in the conversations shaping the future of electronic music.

‍

And with Ibiza's opening season beginning around it, the experience extends well beyond the conference programme.

When and where is IMS Ibiza 2027?

IMS Ibiza 2027 takes place from Wednesday 21 to Friday 23 April 2027, at Mondrian Ibiza and Hyde Ibiza, overlooking Cala Llonga Bay on the island's east coast.

‍

Unlike traditional conferences spread across multiple venues, IMS Ibiza brings its programme together in one location. Conference stages, workshops, networking spaces, accommodation and places to unwind are all within walking distance.

‍

The setting is an important part of the experience. Between sessions, delegates can continue conversations over coffee, meet new collaborators by the water or reconnect with colleagues from across the industry.

‍

For those staying at Mondrian or Hyde Ibiza, the entire summit is on their doorstep.

‍

What happens at IMS Ibiza?

Across three days, IMS Ibiza brings together established industry leaders and emerging voices to examine the opportunities, challenges and ideas influencing electronic music.

‍

The programme spans the creative, cultural and commercial sides of the industry, exploring everything from artist development, record labels and live events to technology, representation, wellbeing and the changing global music landscape.

‍

Whether you're building a career as an artist, running a music business or looking to understand where the industry is heading, IMS Ibiza offers opportunities to gain practical knowledge and connect with the people driving change.

‍

Explore the stages and spaces at IMS Ibiza

The summit takes place across five dedicated stages and spaces, alongside a wellbeing programme designed to support a more balanced and sustainable music industry.

‍

Indoor Stage

The main stage for IMS Ibiza's keynote interviews and major industry discussions. Previous editions have hosted conversations examining the industry's most pressing issues, including 2026's Reclaim The Dancefloor discussion and a closing keynote from Sister Bliss.

‍

Outdoor Stage

Set against the backdrop of Cala Llonga Bay, the Outdoor Stage brings industry conversations into the open air. The 2026 programme included Documenting Dancefloors and the IMS Accelerator, presented in partnership with KOR Protocol.

‍

IMS Academy presented by Pete Tong DJ Academy

A dedicated space for learning, professional development and practical insight. Through workshops, technical masterclasses and conversations with experienced artists and industry professionals, IMS Academy explores the skills, knowledge and opportunities involved in building a career in electronic music.

‍

The Brave Space presented by He.She.They

A space for open dialogue, new perspectives and conversations that challenge the status quo. Previous discussions have addressed representation, equity and inclusion across the music industry, including No Job For a Lady and AFEM's Equity in Action in 2026.

‍

IMS Tech X presented by AlphaTheta

An opportunity to explore the technology shaping how electronic music is created, performed and experienced. Delegates can get hands-on with AlphaTheta equipment and discover innovations from across the music technology sector. Previous exhibitors have included Erica Synths, HIIPE and Vibes + Logic.

‍

The Art of Areté

IMS Ibiza's dedicated wellbeing space explores the relationship between creativity, health and longevity in the music industry. Combining discussions with practices such as yoga and sound healing, The Art of Areté encourages a more considered approach to working and living within electronic music.

‍

The full IMS Ibiza 2027 programme, including speakers, sessions and participating organisations, will be announced in the coming months.

More than a music conference: Networking at IMS Ibiza

One of the most valuable aspects of IMS Ibiza is the opportunity to meet people from across the international electronic music industry.

‍

Throughout the summit, delegates can connect with artists, managers, labels, booking agents, promoters, founders, investors and other professionals working across the music ecosystem.

‍

Some of these conversations happen through the official networking programme. Others take place between sessions, over lunch or during the island's opening events.

‍

Whether you're looking for collaborators, exploring new markets, developing a project or simply reconnecting with the wider industry, IMS Ibiza creates opportunities for conversations that can continue long after the summit ends.

Experience Ibiza's opening season

IMS Ibiza has long been closely connected to the beginning of Ibiza's summer season.

‍

As the island prepares to welcome another summer of electronic music, the summit brings together the people behind its clubs, festivals, labels and creative communities.

‍

Beyond the conference programme, IMS Ibiza delegates can experience selected opening parties across the island, connecting the conversations taking place during the day with the music and culture at the centre of the industry.

Delegates currently have the option to add IMS Dalt Vila 2027 to their badge purchase as a separate bolt-on.
