ERIC PRYDZ’S HOLOSPHERE 2.0 IS MAKING A DEBUT WITH SEASON-LONG RESIDENCY AT [UNVRS]
Ibiza’s most technologically advanced venue, [UNVRS] (pronounced “Universe”), continues to push creative boundaries with the introduction of its latest residency: Eric Prydz’s Holosphere 2.0. This 14-week run will see the globally acclaimed artist debut an evolved version of show, redefining the future of live electronic music experiences.
Back in 2019, Prydz performed inside an eight-tonne sphere that stood over two stories tall—so massive that Tomorrowland had to redesign its festival grounds to accommodate it. This summer, Prydz has announced that he will bring an even larger Holosphere show to Ibiza’s [UNVRS], staging the island’s biggest production, and most high-tech residency to date. Yann Pissenem, Owner, Founder & CEO of The Night Leagueand Ushuaïa Entertainment, goes onto say: "Eric Prydz possesses an extraordinary vision and talent for crafting otherworldly experiences—pushing the boundaries of innovation with every show. With Holosphere 2.0, he has reached an entirely new level, seamlessly blending technology with an ambitious scale like never before. I can't wait to present this new chapter of Eric Prydz at [UNVRS], where audiences will witness something truly unprecedented—transforming this residency into a one-of-a-kind future-forward show that will redefine the global audiovisual experience in 2025." Prydz’s team has been working for over five years to bring Holosphere back, but, as with every new iteration of an Eric Prydz live show, its return depended on ensuring that technology had advanced enough to support the vision of redesigned sphere and an improved concert concept.
Thanks to advancements in technology, Holosphere 2.0 will be vastly different from its predecessor—not only larger in size but also superior in every aspect. The iconic concept of Prydz performing inside an enormous floating sphere, requiring months of physical construction and engineering, will be elevated by animation, 3D holographic effects, and multidimensional layers of custom transparent LED covering the interior, exterior, and internal volume of the sphere. Romain Pissenem, Founder, CEO & Show Director of High Scream LTD: "Holosphere 2.0 is the perfect match for [UNVRS]. We are thrilled to collaborate with Eric Prydz’s team on this visionary show, bringing his colossal sphere to life with next-generation technology and delivering an unforgettable, immersive journey for clubbers." For Prydz, it was crucial that the show be performed in front of a large audience, with the freedom of a dance floor experience. The residency allows Prydz to experiment week by week, both musically and visually.
Holosphere 2.0 will take the audience on a sensory journey on the 2nd of June and will run for 14 weeks until the closing event on September 1st.
