Magic, mystique and masks aplenty: The Masquerade with Claptone is a thrilling Pacha Ibiza experience, with all the fun and theatre of an all-night-long performance – and of course, top-tier techno and house tunes.
Claptone first took residency under the twinned cherries back in 2019. Despite a short pandemic-influenced break in-between, his – or maybe their… – curated theatrical concept has earned itself a leading role amongst the ensemble of world-leading island parties.
Weekends – no matter where you are in the world – have a certain kind of carnival energy. On Saturdays, the circus rolls into Pacha, where the top-hatted techno and house resident takes on the ringmaster role.
Here’s what to expect at The Masquerade with Claptone at Pacha
SENSORY SPECTACLE
Pull back the red curtain to enter an exquisite and elaborate escape. Here, expect trippy theatricals with a golden touch amongst a sea of masks shining under the Pacha lights.
The Masquerade at Pacha is known for its elaborate decor and sensor-tingling atmosphere. It is not your typical Ibiza club night, in some sense.
With hanging chandeliers, sparkling glitter drops and far-from-subtle Venetian symbolism – Claptone’s Saturday night residence resembles a grand ball, but with that familiar feeling of Ibiza hedonism.


THE VERY BEST IN HOUSE MUSIC
But parties in Ibiza don’t become a mainstay through production alone. With Claptone curating, The Masquerade at Pacha is a musical personification of all the fun and flavour you can expect to feel in a carnival-adorned Pacha setting.
House music – with a touch of lighter techno – takes a leading role on Pacha’s chest-thudding D&B audiotechnik soundsystem.
Alongside the main masked man himself, guests include the likes of Fatboy Slim, Purple Disco Machine, 2manydjs, Pete Tong, Roger Sanchez, Faithless’ Sister Bliss, Todd Terry, Paul Woolford, Lee Foss, Moodyman and many more top-tier selectors.
awe inspiring acts
With Claptone as central conductor, The Masquerade at Pacha is a whole club performance, playing on the senses from booth to bar and beyond. Alongside music, the dancefloor takes on a supporting act. Here you will find a feather-laden troupe of performers taking the stage under Claptone’s hanging golden mask centrepiece.
But it is also the crowd who take on a role for the night’s entertainment. In true masquerade style, expect to see plenty of face-covered club-goers adding to that truly unique Ibiza party experience.
masked master of mystery
White gloves in hand, top hat on head and mask holding high above the Pacha dance floor, Claptone is as much a concept as a standalone artist.
The gold-beaked German producer and DJ has been flying over the past decade or so. With productions and remixes stamped by the likes of Defected, Ultra, Columbia and, more recently, his very own Golden Recordings label, Claptone has crafted a distinct house music sound.

This summer, Claptone continues his masked crusade all over the globe – but in Ibiza, Saturdays at Pacha are where you can experience the mystique for yourself.
