MUMBAI: Dance music's youngest superstar is set to return to Ibiza for a summer residency that will turn up the heat a few more degrees on one of the Mediterranean’s hottest nightclub scenes. The world’s #1 DJ locks in not one but two major residencies on the White Isle during the summer of 2017, with weekly performances on Monday nights at the island´s newest venue Hï Ibiza and Thursday day time at Ushuaïa Ibiza Beach Hotel open air club.

At Hï Ibiza (Space), the brand new state of the art nightclub by Ushuaïa Entertainment launching this summer, Garrix presents his tried and tested 'multiply' concept in an 11-week residency starting 3 July. Meanwhile, on Thursday, Martin returns to Ushuaïa Ibiza, the nº one open-air club on the white isle for his third season, where he will launch a brand-new concept from 6 July to 14 September. After selling out Ushuaïa Ibiza on a weekly basis in previous summers, it’s in typical Martin Garrix fashion to take things up a notch and double up for a summer of filled dance floors at two of the island’s premier clubs.

“Ibiza is one of my favourite places in the world and I couldn’t be happier to perform here twice every week! I think the concept of Hï Ibiza is amazing and I’m sure it will become a really cool club. Having two residencies on Ibiza is like a dream for me, we always try to improve the production after each show and to be able to build on a concept in two different venues is unbelievable. It’s going to be a sick summer” - Martin Garrix

In the last year, Garrix’s music career and international fame have risen to new heights. He started his own music label, STMPD RCRDS, which he says will serve as a platform for artists from a variety of genres. In July, Garrix signed a worldwide recording contract with Sony and released ‘In the Name of Love,’ a new track with American singer Bebe Rexha. The two performed together on ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,’ the most-watched late night talk show in the United States. His # 1 position in the DJ MAG top 100 was another highlight of last year. In November, Garrix took the ‘Best Electronic Act’ and ‘Best World Stage Performance’ honours at MTV’s European Music Awards and performed the hit track live during the show with Rexha. Garrix’s latest release ‘Scared to be Lonely,’ featuring English singer/songwriter Dua Lipa, is currently sitting at number five on Spotify’s Global Top 50 chart, rapidly making its way to the top.
