As the opening for Defected’s 2018 season at Eden approaches fast and the scene for the season is set, Sundays in San Antonio are shaping up. For the full 21-date run, Defected is teaming with world famous Café Mambo Ibiza to host pre-parties every Sunday from 9pm, before heading to Eden with CamelPhat, MK, Derrick Carter, Dennis Ferrer, Franky Rizardo, Monki, Claptone, Riva Starr, Melé, Danny Howard, Purple Disco Machine and many more. The opening party will be on Sunday 20th May, with Sam Divine and Simon Dunmore warming up at Mambo and Amine Edge & DANCE, DJ Haus, Low Steppa and Jacky joining them later at the newly updated club. Every week two or more headliners from the Eden bill will play Mambo's intimate setting, with the first pre-party to be live streamed via Defected and Mambo's Facebook and YouTube channels.
One of the best-loved spots on San Antonio’s shoreline, the iconic Café Mambo sits at the heart of the sunset strip and is a prevailing force in the life of the island. A state-of-the-art HD sound system, stunning contemporary food, extensive cocktail menu and quintessential Ibizan spirit fusing old and new – not to mention one of the most memorable sunset views in the world, make Café Mambo the ultimate spot to begin your Sunday night on the island. Following Defected’s inaugural season in 2017, Eden has been tweaked to further improve the look and feel of San Antonio’s best club. The exterior is currently being repainted to gleaming white with silver domes to echo Ibiza’s traditional architecture and inside, the DJ booth has been lowered to dancefloor level, enhancing the connection between Defected’s world-class artists and the ravers.
“House music is our calling. Ibiza is our mecca. No boundaries, no prejudice. Our dance floor is a unifier. In Our House We Are All Equal.” Simon Dunmore
