Vengaboys (/ˈbɛŋ.ɡæ.bɔɪz/)[2][3] is a Dutch Eurodance music group based in Rotterdam consisting of lead vocalist Kim Sasabone, female vocalist Denise van Rijswijk and male vocalists Robin Pors and Donny Latupeirissa.[4] Created by Dutch producers Wessel van Diepen (who selected the group members) and Dennis van den Driesschen (known as Danski and Delmundo), the group enjoyed commercial success in the late 1990s. They are best known for their hit singles "We Like to Party", "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!", and "We're Going to Ibiza", the latter two of which topped the UK Singles Chart and have sold an estimated 25 million records worldwide.[5]
On 2 May 2000, the World Music Awards gave Vengaboys the award for best-selling dance group of the year.[6] In 2019, Dutch online newspaper Nu.nl called Vengaboys the most successful Dutch pop group in history.[7]
