The idea of ROCK NIGHTS began to take shape five years ago on the island of Ibiza, with the vision of carrying out an original event, open to all audiences, that was colourful and fun, and that passion and creative ambition were the main engines driving the project. A party that was always different, that would combine Rock music, visual art and live shows and in which the audience could become what they wished. In the last two years, ROCK NIGHTS went from being the best kept secret in Ibiza’s nightlife to become a phenomenon that has attracted a legion of enthusiastic Rocknighters to every party, catching the eyes of the audience and media of the Spanish peninsula. Recently, ROCK NIGHTS has been chosen as one of the top twenty parties happening in Spain today by EP3. After a winter residence in Joy Eslava (Madrid) and Pacha (Ibiza), the Rock Nights ship docks at Space Ibiza this summer for 16 very special events.
 
 
 
 
One of the main features of ROCK NIGHTS is that the audience comes disguised as the theme of the party. But it’s not only about dressing up, (which is very funny anyway) but to change their skin, to be uninhibited and embody who they want, even for one night. It´s about playing with the concept of secret identities, like in superhero movies, where the hero tears off his jacket and tie to leave behind the daily routine to transform into who they really want to be – a silver plated Ziggy Stardust, a Gene Simmons full of makeup and platform boots, or an Elvis with red cape and white sequins. At ROCK NIGHTS parties not only will you hear Blondie, The Stones or Kiss but you can be them. You can be whoever you want. Sometimes it will be toupees, motorbikes, pin-ups and wild Rock’n'Roll. Others will have flowers on the skin and psychedelic dances to the rhythm of Hendrix and his incendiary guitars. Or superhero masks, capes and cartoon characters. There are no limits to the imagination. As Bowie said: "We can be heroes … Just for one day.
 
 
 
 
The musical approach of ROCK NIGHTS, thanks to the themed parties, which are different each time, allow the audience to enjoy a wide range of musical styles. Using rock as a base, our parties are exploring the Rock culture in all its aspects: Rock’n'Roll, New Wave, Soul, Psychedelia, Surf, Punk Rock … in combination with live shows related to the theme of the evening, by artists who find in ROCK NIGHTS the perfect platform to unleash their creative talents without limit.

In each party, we have a visual show by Marcos Torres, whose projections, always colourful and impressive, are the visual base on which the party takes place, creating the ideal environment for the audience to feel trapped within the film that we suggest.

Of course, we try to leave a margin for the element of surprise, and things happen that audience will not expect. But apart from this stimulating uncertainty, there are two things that every Rocknighter knows will happen in one of our parties: You will be both spectator and protagonist of something very special, and you will not stop dancing and having fun all night. Come on, let’s ROCK!

 
 
 

 

 

 
 

  
Under the suit of the creator and general manager of ROCK NIGHTS lies a real fan of Elvis and a lover of rock music without exception. Mr. DC has always been involved in visionary projects where rock invaded the dance floor, leading to the creation of iconic Rock clubs in Ibiza, or collaborating in projects like "The Music Box" at Privilege, which in 2002 opened the door to the invasion of guitars on the island, receiving from then on the visit of the most important Rock bands in Europe. ROCK NIGHTS is the project where he can unleash, without limitation, his passion for the culture and mythology of Rock’n’ Roll.
   
   
   
  
The work of this graphic artist is widely recognized and has an extremely loyal and enthusiastic audience. His works have been exhibited in many Spanish and European cities and his famous collection of T-shirts have travelled around the world and have received national awards each year. Marcos’s work has been the object of reports on TV stations such as TV3, Cuatro, La 2 or Telemadrid, interviews and articles in Mondosonoro, FHM, Alterego, El Mundo, Lamilk and appearances in Vogue, Rolling Stone, Marie Claire, etc … The mission of this great artist is none other than achieving that the image of ROCK NIGHTS in all its representations, surprise and seduce all who see it.
   
   
   
  
After creating in Barcelona a company specialized in art direction and joining one of the largest event organizing companies in the country as director of the commercial, artistic and production department, Leyla entered the ROCK NIGHTS team as production director, contributing her talent, skill and experience in organizing events, so that ROCK NIGHTS could make reality the plan it had in mind. Leyla has directed major events in venues such as the Palau Sant Jordi, the MNAC, Pueblo Español, Batlló House, the Hotel Arts and El Liceu and in other cities such as Valencia or Madrid.
   
   
   
  
Colin has always been at the centre of the earthquake: first as resident DJ at the legendary Manumission party in Privilege and We Love Sundays at Space, considered two of the best clubs in the world. When Ibiza Rocks began in 2005, Colin was the first to climb into the DJ box to bring down Privilege club once again. Coincidence? Absolutely. Colin is one of the direct causes of these phenomena. His technical skills and his overwhelming rock and electro sessions are to blame. Hurricane Peters has gone through places like London (Transmission Club, ASBO, The T Bar), Barcelona (Discotheque, Liquid, La Terrazza, Risco, Apolo) or Madrid (Circulo de Bellas Artes)
   
   
   
  
Michelle and Elena Lee are professional dancers and performers, whose curriculum is not limited to its presence in the most famous Ibiza clubs, but extends to their performance in music videos and international photo shoots. With them on the dancefloor it is impossible for someone to be indifferent. Their role is to interact with the audience and ensure that everybody has fun and no one stops dancing. The power of their transformations in each party is impressive: disguised as hunters in the jungle and casting their nets on the audience, posing for the camera characterized as pin-ups, or on the stage with 80´s styling and guitars, making the dancefloor roar.
