Destination Defender opens its doors on Ibiza from September 12-29, inviting fans of the iconic British adventure brand to delve into the world of Defender. Much like the best music, Defender encourages guests to embrace new experiences and explore off the beaten path. Ibiza, the heart of club culture, provides a vibrant backdrop with its stunning landscapes and lively atmosphere, both day and night.
This unique spirit is embodied in the exclusive Defender Eivissa Edition, available in two variations—Noontide and Sunrise—inspired by the island’s colors at different times of day. Defender merges its timeless silhouette, tracing back to the original 1948 Land Rover, with cutting-edge technology and unmatched capability.
Known for its energetic nightlife and deep connection to nature, Ibiza reflects the diverse experiences Defender offers. From nightlife and outdoor adventures to wellness and mindfulness, Destination Defender provides an ideal setting to enjoy this multifaceted lifestyle.
Guests will savor culinary delights featuring local cuisine, indulge in after-dinner mixology by world champion Mario Hofferer, or enjoy live music by the pool. A unique “hike-and-clean” initiative invites guests to explore the rugged coastline while collecting litter, all set to an electronic soundtrack curated by Ibiza-born DJ Jaime Fiorito.
Exclusive Editions
Defender proudly introduces the Defender Eivissa Limited Edition, celebrating the iconic island with two exclusive curations: Sunrise and Noontide. The name “Eivissa,” derived from Catalan, reflects the island’s authentic spirit and rich cultural heritage. Limited to just six units worldwide—three of each edition—this collection captures Ibiza’s essence, embodying its distinctive lifestyle. These vehicles will be available exclusively at Defender House, with two on display at Destination Defender.
These limited editions go beyond mere vehicles; they honor Ibiza’s rich history and cultural significance. The number six holds a special place in Ibiza’s lore, dating back to the Phoenician colony “Iboshim,” named after their protective god, Bes. In Phoenician symbolism, six is linked to Bes, creating a timeless connection.
Finished in vibrant blue and warm yellow, the Defender Eivissa Limited Edition reflects the striking contrasts of Ibiza’s day and night, encapsulating the spirit of adventure and exploration that defines Defender.
