new rules for the balearics, as far as I understood to go into effect tomorrow (I'll confirm when I know for sure, but mrs armengol said it'll be in the BOE which comes out each day, so in effect at midnight tonight)

flights and ferries restricted to:

- one flight per day, company and direction between the islands
- one flight per day, company and direction between ibiza, valencia, barcelona and madrid
- private flights (national AND international) prohibited
- ferry connections between islands and to/from mainland also limited to a minimum of departures. formentera - ibiza just three connections a day.

 
today's update:

- same as the rest of spain, the island is on lockdown and it's being enforced by police checks.
- the last remaining tourists are leaving the island with the last international flights (there was a flight to london earlier today for example) or via barcelona or madrid. as explained yesterday, the flight connections to the balearic islands are being reduced to an absolute minimum in this period.
- hotels are closing down temporarily as a result of lockdown and thus low demand.

all of this in an attempt to contain and prevent further spread of coronavirus on ibiza. as per now, there are ten confirmed cases on the island only.

even if not officially confirmed or announced yet, the central government has made it pretty clear that the initial 15 days lockdown phase almost certainly won't buy enough time and that the lockdown thus very likely will be extended, probably until after easter (to be confirmed).

at this point of time it's impossible to give an estimation as to when ibiza will be back open for business. but as usual, here's where you'll read it first. in regards to already announced events such as some of the club opening parties in may, we expect to likely have more news in the next week or two. we shall update this thread whenever we hear of any new developments.

first proper event cancellation for the summer season: the IMS international music summit, including its final party at dalt vila is cancelled for this year sadly and postponed to may 2021

everyone that has bought a ticket from ibiza spotlight for the dalt vila event will get an automated refund, ticket holders don't need to do anything. money will be back on the bank account within a few days.

21 cases already....

 
as expected, spain extends the state of emergency for another 15 days so it will be until easter at least.
links to follow.
 
the ibiza medieval festival (usually happening in may) has been cancelled too

they haven't decided yet as to whether it'll happen later in the year or if it's only back in 2021
