Two Very Different Worlds With One Important Connection
At first glance, IbizaClubbingGuide and Rise of the Footsoldier might appear to occupy completely different worlds.
But there’s actually a natural connection.
Music.
Dance music has played a memorable role throughout the Footsoldier series, while Ibiza’s own story has been shaped by generations of house, rave and electronic music.
With Retribution bringing the franchise to Ibiza, it felt like the perfect opportunity for us to celebrate that connection.
It’s also something a little different for IbizaClubbingGuide.
We spend the season bringing you the biggest parties from Hï, Pacha, Amnesia, Ushuaïa, DC10, UNVRS and Eden, while also championing Ibiza’s smaller venues and grassroots scene.
But Ibiza culture stretches far beyond the dancefloor.
Film, music, fashion, art and entertainment have all been influenced by this extraordinary little island — and whenever Ibiza finds itself in the international spotlight, we want to tell that story too.

Naturally, we couldn’t let the occasion pass without bringing some music into the story.
The Rise of the Footsoldier films have featured some absolutely iconic dance records over the years — tracks that instantly transport many clubbers back to another era.
So we decided to celebrate that musical history in the way we know best.
