The company formerly operated a nightclub in Playa d’en Bossa, Ibiza and opened a New York City venue in 2013.

During its closure the club underwent a major refit involving a brand new LED lighting system and featured the "hatongue" who took over from the legendary "Mad Graham" after the PAR cans were removed.

These included dynamic ceiling lighting in the Spektrum (the upstairs part of the club) as well as a beach constructed with 50 tonnes of Bahamas Sand and the introduction of a state-of-the-art barcoded entry system.

[1] Resident DJs over the years included Greg Vickers, Bushwacka!, Jozef K, Darius Syrossian, Ellesse, OD Muzique.

[8] On 12 January 2017, Sankeys announced that they were permanently closing with immediate effect, after the building they occupied had been sold to be turned into apartments.

During the 2013 Ibiza season at Sankeys, the Seven Wonders of the World theme made a return with parties running seven nights a week.

Viva Warriors and Diynamic Neon Nights continued their residencies on Sundays and Tuesdays respectively, alongside Hypercolour on Mondays, FUSE on Wednesdays, dirtybird on Thursdays, Flying Circus on Fridays and Carnival Cities on Saturdays.

[11] Household names such as Daft Punk, Moby, Björk, and The Chemical Brothers have played at Sankeys, along with artists such as Laurent Garnier, Jacques Lu Cont, Dave Clarke, Mylo, Carl Cox, Derrick May and Swedish House Mafia.
