Eric Prydz has announced a “dramatically evolved version” of his acclaimed Holosphere production, which will debut as part of an exclusive residency at Ibiza’s tech-forward venue, [UNVRS].
Revered for pushing the boundaries of audiovisual experiences, the Swedish electronic music icon is set to unveil an ambitious update of the groundbreaking concept, which he first introduced in 2019. The arena-scale Holosphere 2.0 show will be the “biggest show production ever undertaken in Ibiza,” according to a press release issued to EDM.com.
Holosphere made headlines when it debuted at Tomorrowland, featuring an eight-ton, two-story-tall sphere so massive that the festival had to redesign its grounds to fit it. Despite its awe-inspiring impact, the original Holosphere was tragically crushed when a stage collapsed, leaving fans with just one chance to witness its spectacle. Now, after five years of technological advancements and meticulous design, Holosphere 2.0 promises to surpass its predecessor in every way.
The new version isn’t just bigger—it’s smarter. Holosphere 2.0 incorporates a “feature film’s worth” of original animations, 3D holographic effects and custom transparent LED layers covering its interior, exterior and even the internal volume of the sphere.
Designed to create multidimensional visual experiences that evolve in real-time with Prydz’s music, the immersive structure is “a world first,” according to [UNVRS]. The venue is said to be one of the few worldwide capable of supporting the show’s scale and technical demands.
“With Holosphere 2.0, [Prydz] has reached an entirely new level, seamlessly blending cutting-edge technology with an ambitious scale like never before,” said Yann Pissenem, Founder and CEO of The Night League and Ushuaïa Entertainment. “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 Holosphere 2.0 residency at [UNVRS] is scheduled to begin June 2nd and run for 14 weeks until its finale on September 1st.
