Philips closes the Ibiza season with back-to-back parties to launch the Philips 530 phone

Amsterdam, Sep 29, 2003 - Philips kicks off a series of dance events throughout Europe this autumn by throwing exclusive parties at two of Ibiza’s legendary club venues – Bambuddha Grove and SPACE.

Bambuddha Grove has always been an inspiring choice for DJs, celebrities and clubbers alike, catching the spirit of Ibiza with its fantastic cuisine, bar and gardens, and amazing atmosphere. On 27 September it will host the official launch of the Philips 530 BeDJ dance events set to roll out across France, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, Poland and the Czech Republic from October onwards.

The events are being organized to promote the new Philips 530 mobile phone and its unique BeDJ function, which allows users to re-mix their own music tracks for use as ring-tones or to send to others via MMS. The Philips 530 is part of a range of portable Philips products being launched this summer.

The Bambuddha Grove party will be a preclusive event for 200 guests and will be attended by Philips BeDJ ‘ambassadors’ Carl Cox, Cut Killer, and Sander Kleinenberg – who have all been working with Philips over the last couple of months to provide tracks for the Philips 530’s BeDJ function. The party will also include a set from French hip-hop master, Cut Killer.

The weekend carries through to the next day, Sunday 28 September, when Philips will be the exclusive headline sponsor of the SPACE closing party – at which 10,000 clubbers will join the world’s biggest party as the Spanish island officially celebrates the closing of the season.

This is always a party packed to the brim with recognisable island faces, celebrities, DJs and clubbers from all over the world, all crammed onto the terrace to dance the summer away!

This year tunes behind the decks will be chosen by BeDJ partners Carl Cox, Cut Killer and Sander Kleinenberg who will be joined by other stars on the bill, Eric Morillo, John Digweed and Steve Lawler BeDJ guests will be able to enjoy a private VIP lounge on SPACE’s famous roof terrace, celebrating in style at the first of many BeDJ club nights: this will be one to remember for a night of cutting edge music and continuous dancing.
