TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE / IBIZA / 12·AUG·2026

LIFE,
THE UNIVERSE
& EVERYTHING

The Guide notes, in passing, that on the evening of Wednesday 12 August 2026 the Mediterranean will briefly misplace its sun for sixty-six seconds. Not seen over the white isle since 1905, when nobody thought to mark the occasion with appropriate gravity, we intend to correct that.

Attendance is encouraged; reattendance, statistically, is not.
