I am visiting Ibiza in September next year and would like advice on the best time to book a flight. I have accommodation and have to fly on 2 September. Can anyone help?

you don't say where you are looking to fly from...that may change the answer depending which airlines operate the route and when they release flights0

See https://www.momondo.co.uk/discover/article/how-to-find-cheap-flights which says 60 days before.0

Easyjet flights may not be released yet. I've been Ibiza for the last 5 years. I've booked flights far in advance and last minute. You can get cheap last minute flights - like a couple weeks to a couple days in advance from as little as £40 base fare from London - but these flights are evening/late night flights.
BA are more expensive but have better times.0 -
Night flight to Evissa = Party Bus.
Make sure you are up for it before booking!0 -

Those kinds of articles are nonsense.0 -

Alternatively, Skyscanner do a more specific checker, and they check flight prices all the time as the "google" of flight searches, so they are likely to be reliable:

From Manchester to Ibiza, it says 2 week before is cheapest but the range 2-6 weeks is much the same. Prices are considerably more booking early.
From London, it's 7 weeks. Again it's considerable more expensive booking early, or very last minute.0 -

Just been playing about with the tool, it seems to show definite trends:
- Typical European holiday destinations, there's a blatently obvious trend that the later you book, the cheaper it is. Particularly Spanish resorts, islands etc (except that booking very last minute eg less than a week, prices go up).
- For typicaly business destinations, it's the opposite, the earlier you book, the cheaper it is
- For long haul, it's a lot more variable

Agree with the above
I've booked Ibiza flights last minute and in advance. The only cheap advanced tickets I've got are the day Easyjet release the flights. I got it for around £75 from London to Ibiza, could have been cheaper if I got in earlier in the day. Most times it's been just over £100 for booking in advance, or £40 base fare 3 weeks before flying.0 -
Previousy With Ryanair, Id always say 6 to 8 weeks was the optimum time to book, but it didnt work this year for our usual Oct break. Prices were high across quite a few of our favourite beach destinations0
