BBC Radio 1 to celebrate 25 years of broadcasting from Ibiza

BBC Radio 1 is set to celebrate 25 years of broadcasting from Ibiza with a number of special programmes.

The station normally airs annually from the Spanish island, which is famous for its nightclubs and dance music scene.

Radio 1 will not be going to Ibiza this year because of the coronavirus pandemic.

“We’re so excited and we can’t wait to share all the details soon.”
