Velvet Ibiza, the all-inclusive 5-day/5-night party, has, in only a few years’ time, become a holy ground for queer women who continue to descend on the pine-covered isle to enjoy one the most life changing and bonding experience.

Created and (ever since) produced by Carine De Mesmaeker – the mastermind behind Velvet 69, one of Europe’s biggest queer Women party in Brussels, Belgium – Velvet Ibiza made history in its inception year by (surprisingly) being the first ever queer women event held in the small Balearic island famously known for its LGBTQ-friendly culture, its vibrant nightlife scene and celebrity sighting. 

The event attracts a vastly international crowd with LGBTQ+ women traveling from all over the globe for one big giant celebration of the community.                               

The all-inclusive nature of the event (tickets include 5 nights in bungalow, all 3 meals, day and night activities & parties, transportation from airport to resort, and all drinks t’il 11pm) creates a safe and unique environment that imparts a palpable sense of belonging and freedom.

No need to venture anywhere, the party is literally on your doorsteps as De Mesmaeker rents out the entire resort.Having everything in one place is key for the event producer who strives to create a great community vibe allowing people to organically connect.

From the pool parties, sports tournaments, yoga classes, club nights and now the infamous duck race to the top queer female DJs from Europe and America dropping the sickest beats Velvet Ibiza has it all!

The host hotel is Cala Martina, the location of the historical Hippie Market – one of the few places in Ibiza where you can still find today the peculiar and unique hippie essence. It was founded in 1973 and for that reason it is currently the largest and oldest market on the island.

A second hotel, Paraiso Beach, next to Hotel Cala Martina has been retained as well

Paraiso Beach is a 4 Star boutique hotel only 5′ minutes walking distance from the event hotel. Only 20 rooms available!
