DC10 is a nightclub located in Ibiza on the Carretera of Salinas. It started during the 90s as a music bar and began with a license for just 80 people, opened by two Spanish brothers, Deogracias lara Moreno and Antonio Lara Moreno. In 1999, Italian promoters Antonio Carbonaro and Andrea Pelino joined in force, becoming partner at DC10, and creating the Circoloco brand, which would soon become the Monday event during each Ibiza season.[2][failed verification]

Over the years, the venue, which had started with the licence for a music bar, grew to an event hall with a capacity of 1,500 people.[1] The nightclub is divided into three rooms, La Terrace, The Main Room and The Open Air Garden, each of which is dedicated to a different genre of music.[citation needed] DC10 is open two to three nights a week.[3]

In contrast to other nightclubs on the Ibiza island, Circoloco still does little or no publicity for its parties.[citation needed] International DJs who played at Circoloco include Skrillex, Disclosure, Luciano, Loco Dice, Ricardo Villalobos, Seth Troxler, The Martinez Brothers, Damian Lazarus, Jamie Jones, Peggy Gou, Black Coffee, Tale Of Us, &ME, and Amelie Lens.[5]

In 2019, DC10 announced it would ban single-use plastic from the event and offer recyclable water bottles instead.[6]

Since 1999 Circoloco proposed every year to its crowd the slogan of their season, which is like the motto of the summer. Starting in 1999 with "Ibiza Monday Session" to "Sorry We Are Circoloco" was a succession of statements year after year.[citation needed]

In addition to its events at the DC10 nightclub, the Circoloco brand has held events worldwide in cities such as New York, Miami, London, Milan, Paris, Amsterdam, Tel Aviv, Istanbul, Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, Bogotà, Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, Phuket, Sydney and Melbourne.[7][failed verification]

In 2018, fashion designer Virgil Abloh dedicated a capsule collection to the Circoloco event.[8]

Noise restrictions

edit

In October 2017, Diario de Ibiza reported DC10 being charged by local police for exceeding noise restrictions for their closing party.[9][10]
