Space Ibiza, according to an interview with Abel Matutes of the Matutes Group, will not be renamed. Matutes explains that “It will surely open this year as Space. It’s an accredited brand.” His team is, however, considering putting on another addition to the venue name so that it is more closely associated with other franchises owned by The Matutes Group.
Though the name will not change, there is one big thing to keep an eye on: Matutes explains that there are plans to convert the space into a more exclusive, luxurious club, resembling club structures that can be found in big club cities like Miami and Las Vegas.
The Matutes Group took over ownership of the venue earlier this year after Pepe Rosello, the club’s original owner, retired, though we can only hope that as owners change, not much else will change along with it. We’re still watching for the type of talent that will get booked in the venue with these changes. For now, the legend of Space Ibiza will live on.
