Bowood House will once again host the annual Classic Ibiza concert on the 17th and 18th July 2026, and organisers say this year’s event will be bigger and longer than ever.
Tickets for the popular outdoor music event are now on sale, with organisers warning they are already selling fast.
Classic Ibiza, which combines live orchestral performance with house music and DJ sets, is returning to Bowood after last year’s 10th anniversary tour was described as the most successful yet.
Organiser Lisa Ward said the response from audiences across the country inspired a new, expanded format for 2026.
“People loved the euphoric wall-of-sound created by Stephen Hussey’s Urban Soul Orchestra and the London Community Gospel Choir,” she said. “The concert was so good that they wanted it to last longer, so that’s exactly what we’re giving them.”
The event will run later than in previous years and will feature new DJ sets and more guest vocals from members of the London Community Gospel Choir.
The planned programme for Bowood is:
-
17.00 – Gates open
-
17.30 – Arrival lounge DJ set
-
18.45 – Chill-out set (Urban Soul Orchestra + guest DJ)
-
19.30 – Party-starter DJ set
-
20.00 – Sundowner set (Urban Soul Orchestra, DJ Goldierocks & LCGC)
-
21.00 – Deep house DJ set (DJ Goldierocks)
-
21.30 – Dance set & laser light show
-
23.00 – Finish
Ward added: “This summer’s extended programme is going to take the show to new heights. We’ll be showcasing everyone’s favourite house anthems, but I’m particularly looking forward to USO working their magic on some classic chill-out tracks.”
She encouraged local residents to book early, saying: “If your new year’s resolution is to create some fantastic memories with your family and friends, then Classic Ibiza is the concert for you.”
