The Nikki Beach White party is perhaps the best known of its themed parties. No matter which Nikki Beach you find yourself in round the world, it captures the imagination and challenges its fun-loving clientele to add glamour and extravagance as it dresses head to toe in white, something that it embraces with enthusiasm. In Ibiza, the Grand Opening White party carries even more significance as it heralds the official start of the summer season. When we arrive at the stylish venue in S’Argamassa, the pool area looks resplendent, with a huge white stage, covered in dancers in long flowing white gowns, there is already a big crowd gathered around the bar area, all in white and the crowd occupying the beds and cabanas around the blue pool have also entered into the spirit. There is a dancer inside a Perspex cylinder and Ibiza Global Radio is broadcasting live, taking the unique vibe of the party around the world.

Wandering around the pool area, checking out the various interpretations of the white costume is fascinating, there are those that have gone for a simple jeans and short combo, ourselves included but there are others that have clearly embraced the challenge and delivered some theatrical definitions of the dress code. It adds to the atmosphere as Andy Baxter delivers a chunky house soundtrack as two drummers play along. The Nikki Beach experience always delivers a lie element to its entertainment and the White Party gives it an opportunity to bring out its big guns as live violin and sax join the drummers at various points throughout the event. There is also a very nimble and athletic show with an acrobat dressed in gold (perhaps she didn’t get the memo) putting on a spectacular show with two giant hoops. It’s more of a well-choreographed show than a normal clubbing party and one that is perfectly framed by one of the finest views anywhere on the island.

Sarah Main has taken to the lofty heights of the stage as the beautiful Nikki Beach dancers join her looking down on the white blanket of people that has now covered the outside area. The violinist delivers a variation of some popular Euro chart hits of the 90’s, including Rhythm Is A Dancer as well as The White Stripes ‘Seven Nation Army’, which sees the crowd spring to life. We took the opportunity of grabbing a table in the area opposite the stage, where we could get a great view of everything that was going on, as well as nibble on some delicious food. From oysters, scallops and sushi starters, including mini bottles filled with ‘Bloody Mary’ to burger sliders, mini lamb chops, beef steaks and chicken kebabs, it was a mouth watering array of bites that set us up for the rest of the white party. It was a carefully eaten snack, there’s no room for any stains of the bright white outfit! The sun has started its journey beneath the horizon and the lighting comes on around the pool, including around the violinists musical instrument, giving the beach club a completely different look.

The globes at each corner of the stage illuminate, like huge moons, and the white party really comes to life as the music takes a slightly funkier turn. The live drumming continues, there are more performances, from contortionists to pole dancers to an amazing dance routine in what looked like mirrored costumes, reflecting the lighting to dramatic effect. The pool area is busy, everyone in white bringing their own touch of light to the party, the groups around their tables are joining in the fun, cocktails are flowing and tables become makeshift podiums as Nikki Beach celebrates its official summer opening in style. Look out for the numerous themed parties returning to the stylish beach club throughout the season, or, if you are looking for a chic spot to while away the day on a luxurious day bed, sipping champagne and enjoying sumptuous fine dining with a breathtaking view, then drop in any time.
