Ibiza Celestes UD Balearic Islands, Spain Unión Deportiva Ibiza is a Spanish professional football club based in the town of Ibiza, in the autonomous community of the Balearic Islands. Founded in 2015, it plays in Primera Federación – Group 2, holding home matches at Estadi Municipal de Can Misses, with a capacity of 6,000.

History

UD Ibiza was founded in 2015 by former Valencia CF president Amadeo Salvo, as a revival of UD Ibiza-Eivissa which had folded five years earlier. The new organisation was allowed to use the old one's identity, by settling its €50,000 debt with the Royal Spanish Football Federation and the regional federation in the Balearic Islands. In June 2017, the club was promoted to Tercera División after spending two seasons in the Regional league.

On 7 August 2018, after the RFEF blocked Lorca FC's participation in Segunda División B, Ibiza paid the club's debts and achieved an administrative promotion to the third level.

In 2019–20, the club competed in the Copa del Rey for the first time. They defeated Pontevedra and Albacete Balompié before a 1–2 home loss to FC Barcelona in the round of 32, having led the league title holders with 20 minutes to play. In the following edition, UD Ibiza beat a top-flight team for the first time, winning 5–2 against Celta Vigo in the second round of the competition; later they lost 2–1 to Athletic Bilbao after extra time.

On 23 May 2021, Ibiza was promoted for the first time ever to Segunda División by defeating UCAM Murcia in the final of the promotion play-off, via an Ekain Zenitagoia goal from the penalty spot. To compete in the Liga Nacional de Fútbol Profesional, the club became a Sociedad Anónima Deportiva with a starting capital of €700,000. Manager Juan Carlos Carcedo, who led the team to promotion, was dismissed on 18 December following six games without a win; his replacement Paco Jémez saved the team from relegation with a 15th-place finish, which was not enough for Salvo to give him a new contract.

On 28 April 2023, Ibiza were relegated to Primera Federación after being defeated 1–0 at Racing Santander, ending their two-season spell in the second division.
