Hey party people! If you’ve been craving those Ibiza vibes but couldn’t make it to the White Island this year, we’ve got the next best thing coming your way! The legends behind Dance Till Dawn are throwing an epic Ibiza Closing Party right here in Kettering, and trust us, it’s going to be one to remember!
We’re talking a full day-to-night party experience that kicks off at The Beeswing from 2 PM to 10 PM and then heads straight to Aura for the after-party from 10 PM to 3 AM. And the best part? It’s all about showcasing the incredible talent we have right here in our local scene.
Why This Event is a Must-Attend
We caught up with Reece Speechley, one half of Dance Till Dawn, to get the low down on what inspired this event. Here’s what he had to say: “After such a great response from our Ibiza Anthems Party, we thought it would be a perfect way to keep the buzz going by creating our very own Ibiza Closing Party for both our regular supporters and those who may have missed our last event.”
Who doesn’t love a good Ibiza-style blowout? The energy, the beats, the community vibes—this event is all about bringing a slice of that iconic island experience right to our doorstep. Plus, it’s a fantastic opportunity to support Cransley Hospice, a charity that’s close to all our hearts. So, not only are you going to have an amazing time, but you’ll also be helping a great cause.
The Lineup – All About Local Talent
The lineup for this event is absolutely stacked with pure local talent! Reece and the team have brought together some of the best DJs and artists from our area to keep you dancing from day till dawn. For the day party at The Beeswing, you’ve got sets from Ambz, Calz, Hani, Harry Painter, Harry Barker, Johno, Pacho, RS, Slugzy Malone, and The Social. Then, at the after-party at Aura, you can catch Andizz, Cole Bannigan, Intense, Mikey Whitney, Nathxno, RS, and Wardy.
“We have a lot of local artists who play for us regularly and bring such a great vibe to our events every time,” says Reece. “But this time, we’ve also found three brand-new DJs from the local area who have never played outside of their own homes before. Giving them a chance to play on stage to a live audience is fantastic for us because we’ve been in that situation ourselves. We know how great it feels to finish a set and have that sense of achievement!”
The Vibe – Bringing Ibiza to Kettering
What’s a party without the right vibe? The team at Dance Till Dawn knows exactly how to bring those Ibiza feels, even if we’re miles away from the Balearic sun. “We want to create an Ibiza-style vibe to go with our event,” says Reece. “So we’ll add decor and other touches to really set the scene.” And don’t forget, the event is also part of the ‘Go Green’ campaign with Cransley Hospice, so expect to see some awesome green-themed decor that ties in with this fantastic initiative.
Why This Matters for the Local Scene
Beyond just being a killer party, events like this are vital for our local community and music scene. As Reece puts it, “These events are important because we give local artists a chance to showcase their talent, bringing a sense of togetherness back into the town. The more people that see locals doing their thing, the more it inspires others to step forward and give it a go.”
And let’s be honest—grassroots talent is where all your future festival headliners are born. Supporting local DJs and artists now means you’re playing a part in nurturing the next big thing. Who knows, the DJ you see at the Ibiza Closing Party could be headlining Creamfields in a few years!
