According to the International Nightlife Association (INA), Spain is the best place for nightlife lovers to let loose and party.
Last month, the organization unveiled this year’s best nightclubs in the world during its 10th Golden Moon Awards Gala, held in Valencia, Spain.
The INA crowned the Ibiza party hotspot UNVRS as 2025’s No. 1 club in the world. It’s an immense feat for the venue considering that it only opened in May of this year. Nightclub enthusiasts may recall that Hollywood titan Will Smith posted a promotional clip for the club with Ushuaïa Ibiza and Hï Ibiza founder Yann Pissenem back in August 2024.
Pissenem is also behind this year’s INA winner UNVRS. His Hï Ibiza ranked second on the INA’s 2025 list after maintaining the first-place spot for the prior four years. Moreover, Pissenem’s Ushuaïa Ibiza ranked third on this year’s list.
In a Billboard interview last year, Pissenem described UNVRS as a “hyper club” that “offers the best elements of a club, the infrastructure of an arena, and the best hospitality in the world.” The new club replaced Ibiza’s infamous Privilege, which Guinness World Records previously recognized as the world’s largest nightclub.
