Ibiza Weekender is a British reality television series that premiered on ITV2 on 6 January 2013. The series follows a group of 18-24 year olds spending a weekend at a hotel resort on the island of Ibiza, Spain. From series 1–3, it was titled The Magaluf Weekender, and was located at Lively Hotel in Magaluf. In 2015, for the fourth series, production was relocated to Ibiza, and the series was renamed Ibiza Weekender. The ninth series began broadcasting on 19 January 2020.[2]
Overview
Each week, the show follows two different sets of young friends. For some, this is their first holiday without their parents. In The Magaluf Weekender, guests checked into Lively Hotel, a holiday resort on the island of Mallorca, with their friends for three days. The hotel rigged cameras to film every aspect of their holiday in a Big Brother-style of filming. In Series 2, cameras were installed in the bedrooms. The final reps of The Magaluf Weekender were Imogen, Jordan, Ali and Tobi.
In 2015, the show relocated to Ibiza for Series 4 and became Ibiza Weekender, despite following a similar format to the previous version of the programme. Imogen returned in Episode 1, with Jordan returning in Episode 3. The remaining rep positions were covered by new reps.

Reception
On 13 January 2013, The Magaluf Weekender was the second most tweeted about show of the day, inspiring over 29,000 tweets.[7]
Reveal magazine rated the show positively, saying: "Unlike the semi-scripted formats of shows such as TOWIE, Geordie Shore and Made in Chelsea, this unique series captures the true, unguarded moments of these young adults by using rigged cameras to film every aspect of their holiday in a Big Brother style of filming."[8]
The show never held first place for the most viewed programme on ITV2 for any week as The Magaluf Weekender. However, on 26 February 2017, Ibiza Weekender became the most viewed programme of the week on ITV2 and ITV2 +1 for the first time in the show's history with 622,000 viewers, although this isn't the highest number of viewers that the show has attracted. The show has also held the top position for ITV2 for two other episodes in its history.
