ANTS Metalworks (Ibiza, Spain) 2025

In the heart of Playa d’en Bossa, where Ibiza’s open-air magic meets futuristic sound design, ANTS Metalworks returns to Ushuaïa Ibiza on Saturday, August 16, 2025, for a standout chapter in its 23-week residency. Running from May 3rd to October 4th, the ANTS concept morphs each Saturday into a living, breathing machine, grinding gears, towering structures, and relentless rhythm merging into a full-throttle industrial rave music festival unlike anything else on the island.

This particular August edition, curated by The Night League, promises to push the boundaries even further with a high-impact lineup of underground powerhouses. Andrea Oliva, long-time ANTS resident and Ibiza favorite, joins forces with minimal techno icon Boris Brejcha, bringing his masked mystique to the Colony. Also on deck are groove-laden selectors like Chelina Manuhutu, Francisco Allendes, Raúl Rodríguez, and UK duo The Menendez Brothers, setting the pace with a blend of house, techno, and tech house made for hands-in-the-air moments beneath Ushuaïa’s open sky.

The venue itself transforms into a dystopian forge, colossal robotic arms, kinetic light displays, and evolving visual structures enveloping the crowd in a multi-sensory journey. As the story of the Chromatic ANTS continues to unfold, so does the surreal narrative of machines gaining intelligence, guided and fueled by the synchronized energy of thousands on the dancefloor. It’s not just a party, it’s a living installation powered by movement, sound, and collective euphoria.

With sets running from 15:00 to 23:00, guests can expect a crescendo of energy as the sun dips behind the Balearic horizon. The dancefloor becomes the core reactor, driving both the music and the mythos forward. The August 16 date stands out not just for its heavyweight lineup but also as part of the larger global evolution of ANTS in 2025, following the brand’s expansion into Australia, South America, and a debut Dubai Harbour takeover.

Whether you’re a returning member of the Colony or discovering ANTS for the first time, this is a Saturday that promises scale, spectacle, and sound that shakes the system from within. Tickets and VIP tables are on sale now, early booking is essential for one of the summer’s most anticipated industrial spectacles in Ibiza.
