We Love.. takes no prisoners with its sterling line-ups, but it is also directed by a strong core collective in the friends of We Love.. and reinforced by the enigmatic club, Space. If walls could talk, those inside would have plenty to recount from a history that put Playa D´en Bossa on the Ibiza clubbing map. Witnessing countless iconic memories, Space has marked many musical milestones. We Love.. has now become the most prominent event to take place inside the sprawling venue, which comprises six separate arenas. Taking place on Sundays throughout the summer, it can only be labeled as a ´festival in a club´ to those that experience it.
