John Summit made his Ibiza debut in 2022 at Ushuaïa Ibiza, instantly winning over the ANTS crowd and affirming his place on the island. He returned in 2023 for standout sets at Ushuaïa and Hï Ibiza, further cementing his status. That connection peaked in 2025 with a sold-out two-day takeover at Hï Ibiza, appearances at ANTS, and a celebrated collaboration with Anyma at [UNVRS]. Each return strengthened his euphoric, emotionally charged bond with the Ibiza dancefloor.
The announcement of this residency follows an exceptional few years for John Summit, defined by an extensive global touring schedule and some of the most significant milestones of his career to date. He has headlined some of the world’s most prestigious venues, including a lightning-fast sell-out at New York City’s Madison Square Garden (17,000 tickets in under two hours), a headline show at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles for 22,000 fans, a sold-out show at London’s O2, and three consecutive sold-out nights at the Kia Forum, drawing more than 45,000 attendees in total. These achievements are matched by his continued presence as a headliner at major festivals such as Coachella, Austin City Limits, and Tomorrowland, reaffirming his status as one of the key figures on the global circuit.
Alongside this international momentum, John Summit continues to expand his creative universe. In 2024, he released his debut album Comfort In Chaos, a body of work featuring some of his biggest tracks, including “Where You Are” and “Shiver”. Throughout his career, Summit has also delivered high-profile remixes and collaborations for artists including Ellie Goulding and Anyma, while working closely with vocalist Inéz, whose voice has become a defining element of his musical narrative.In 2025, this artistic exploration continued with new releases such as “Crystallized”, an emotionally charged track that premiered at Tomorrowland showcasing a new dimension of Summit’s sound and his ability to resonate with audiences beyond the club and festival circuit. Summit also debuted his long-awaited remix of Britney Spears’ “I Wanna Go”, after teasing the track for months. Other standout releases include “Silence” (John Summit Remix) with Sarah McLachlan & Delerium and “Focus” (feat. CLOVES), each further demonstrating his dynamic style and range. This creative evolution speaks directly to the ethos of Experts Only and reinforces the artistic moment in which his Ibiza residency arrives.
Beyond his explosive live performances, John Summit has established himself as an artist with a clear and forward-thinking vision. Through his label and creative platform, Experts Only, he not only champions emerging underground talent, but also curates unique musical experiences in singular locations, from Vail Mountain and The Caverns in Tennessee to bespoke formats across the international circuit. In 2025, he also launched the inaugural Experts Only Festival NYC, a groundbreaking two-day live music event that drew 50,000 enthusiastic fans to Randall’s Island, which has been confirmed to return this year. Experts Only reflects his ambition to conquer the global music scene, without losing the underground ethos of his roots.
Speaking about his return to Ibiza and what it means to bring Experts Only to [UNVRS], John Summit says: “From the moment I stepped into [UNVRS], I knew we had to bring Experts Only there. The sound, the production, the energy—it’s unlike anything I’ve experienced in a club. Bringing my event to the best venue in the world’s dance music capital is a dream come true. We’re going all out every week this June and July, and I can’t wait to see you on the island.”
John Summit’s residency naturally aligns with the creative vision of The Night League, sharing a forward-thinking approach that continues to redefine the clubbing experience. The concept fits seamlessly within the ethos of the brand behind some of the most influential projects in global electronic music and club culture, including Ushuaïa Ibiza, Hï Ibiza, and the new venue [UNVRS]. Envisioned as a next-generation space, [UNVRS] has been purpose-built to host cutting-edge electronic music residencies, blending immersive architecture, state-of-the-art technology, and a strong artistic narrative designed to deepen the connection between artist, audience, and sound.
Across nine consecutive Mondays, Experts Only will transform [UNVRS] into one of the essential meeting points of the Ibiza summer, delivering a residency that not only captures the current moment of John Summit’s career, but also reflects Ibiza’s continued evolution as a global reference point for electronic music.
