no after hours before noon

[axon]

what part of "only dc10 and space will be affected" dont people understand ?

eden, es paradis, amnesia, privilege, pacha and el divino all open at midnight and all shut at 6am - whether the law is extended to 12am, 4.30pm or 6pm this doesnt affect in anyway shape or form SIX out of the SEVEN clubs on the island

i think people "understand" it very well in fact.

to each their own, but i think many people would consider at least one of the many daytime parties in space (we love, matinee, la troya carry on etc etc) and/or circo loco at DC10 to be among the best clubs/nights on the island.

the fact that the dj sammy party at eden or some chavvy foam party at es paradis will not be truncated in no way appeases me!

DJ sammy is at es paradise

any way whatever the decision i cant see it making much of a difference...

12pm ... a couple hundred hardcore cant dance at space for a few hours (we love, matinee)

4:30pm ... a fair bit of space schedule will be cut but there will still be 3/4 hours daylight + a lot of people will all be there ready for 4:30 at the space entrance... dc10 dosent get busy till just before this time anyway so no big loss there

6pm ... cant see that happening but still much not lost... people will go to bora bora for the afternoon then onto space/dc10 for an early start

im not to fussed about the whole thing... open air clubbing was the big thing in ibiza now its gone but the place keeps on going

richy

I'm confused (again).

I thought they were changing the opening hours to 12:00. What's this about 4:30 or 6:00?

Hopefully the law doesn't show up to stop my illegal hotel room parties! (all two of us that show up!)

Come to london if u want proper after hours u can party from friday night till monday lunch time non stop if u want . Still Ibiza has best atmosphere whatever time of day but is a shame to lose these partying hours for those who truly like to keep dancing and not just see how much they can gurn

It's pritty much the same anywhere in the uk these days, whether it be brum,sheffield,leeds or even your local town. I live in brum and can pritty much garentee constant clubbing from friday evening to sunday night if i wanted to do that......... It's just not quite the same when its chucking it down outside! lol

at the end of last year they were talking about 6am-12noon:

Thanks for the clarification icebaer, but I think I was happier not knowing this!

I'm sure we'll all still have a blast anyway and clubbers will just find more creative ways to get down. This will lead to more of those annoying "Ibiza was better back when..." type comments from all of the old timers.

I'm still planning on coming this summer. Maybe we should all rent a boat and do afterhours out at sea!

 

[Fargoer]

looks like the end for ibiza as a worthwhile PARTY destination

i'll probably go back in my 40's or 50's for a relaxing beach holiday, but that's about it.

however, i'm going to try to count my blessings -

(1) i had THREE great clubbing holidays there with memories to last a lifetime. 8) unfortunately some of my american friends who have always wanted to go and had wanted me to take them this year will never get that unique experience.

(2) with the balearics off my holiday list, i can now expand my cultural and travelling horizons further - top of my list for alternative holiday destinations this year are cuba, hawaii, and mexico.

still, it's a sad state of affairs...

If this is a major issue for the inhabitants and government in Ibiza, they should definitely both implement it and spend resources on making sure its being held. As mr_l_k writes, we visit the place but the inhabitants live there every day.

The daytime clubbing ban (4:30pm) will, however, change one very distinct difference from other vacation destinations. Is that a bad thing? For Ibiza as we know it (from a clubbing perspective), probably yes. For me? Not really. I have had some great clubbing vacations on Ibiza over the last years, and there will always be a number one clubbing place in the world. If the Ibiza population is not happy with having it, I am sure Buenos Aires, Goa or other places will take it over, and I will experience new places.

I won’t book my clubbing summer trip just yet, but will definitely come back when I am 40-50 to re-experience the good memories and have a relaxing holiday.

Exactly! Although we can be sad about what's happening, it's true in this life that nothing lasts for ever.

Nostalgia is generally a bad thing. The electronic music scene should always demonstrate innovation and evolution - both in terms of the music and now I guess also in terms of the places where that music is performed. And won't it be exciting to see where if anywhere else in the world becomes THE new favoured destination for internationally-minded ravers! 8)

Unless clubbing between 6am and 12 noon really bothers you I think this is jumping the gun a bit. (12noon is the only agreed law at present). I plan to go this year and expect it to be like last season and if it's not, then I will judge the changes Look at the party calender - that alone cheers me up 8)

r.i.p. pp

apparently after the recent scandal in mallorca they are planning to change their name to PPPPP . . . . .

DISGRACED COUNCILLOR PAYS BACK MONEY
Former Palma de Mallorca councillor Javier Rodrigo de Santos has reimbursed the 50,802 euros he spent in gay clubs over two years ago, using a municipal credit card. The married father of five was dropped by his party, the Partido Popular, as soon as details of what a party spokesman called a “monumental scandal” began to emerge early last week. Rodrigo de Santos told reporters last Friday that his “errors” were due to “health circumstances”. People close to him allege he is also a cocaine addict. A devout Catholic, he helped to organise the Pope’s visit to Valencia, and in Palma he refused to carry out gay weddings. The Balearics public prosecutor has started legal action against him for the misuse of public funds. The ex-councillor’s family has reportedly left Mallorca to set up a new home in another part of the country.

does all this mean that if dc10 opens at 430, it can stay open til 6am, same with space? if that is correct, well this nonsense doesnt really bother me...think about it, we love sundays til 6am, recover and reboot the system at bora bora then head into dc10 ...the only thing i;m thinking is what about cocoon on the same time as circo loco?...on the other hand, if dc10 closes the same time as before (midnight) then i wont be happy...we lose out on hours and so does dc10 as a business.

You're definately losing out on hours because We Love... was open (I believe) from 8am on Sunday until 6am on Monday. With the new hours it would be open from 16:30 until 6am....tha's a loss of 8 and 1/2 hours.

I was under the impression that DC10 was going to be shut down since they didn't have the proper license to run as a club or because they had exceeded their capacity. Has that changed?

I don't think DC10 have ever had the right license and there is talk of it shutting every year but it still somhow stays open.

Quick translation.

The mayors of the Popular Party (Vicent Marí, of Holy Eulària; José Room, of Sant Antoni; and Antoni Marí, Decrepit, of Sant Joan) they notify the president of the Consell, Xico Tarrés, that they agree not neither in "the flexibilization of the regulations" that regulate the operation of the record stores neither with "the intervention of these in the tourist promotion with public money". Also they are opposed to that be publicized Eivissa like destiny of `sol and disk´, that, they as say, "up to now has been exclusive of the commercialization of other markets". "All these initiatives have been presented for the president of the Consell and them do not we share in the terms in which they have been published", they assure the mayors in a joint press release with the anagram of the three City Hall. In fact, the mayors underline that "the philosophy of the Consell of the Music has been in every moment that of unifying schedules and other regulations through the bylaws, to eradicate the illegal offering, the `after-hours´ and the image of the continuous festival without control". "These they are the only aspects accepted and arrived at by consensus by the Consell of Mayors", adds the communiqué. The mayors understand that Tarrés has gone beyond what negotiated Thursday of last week in Sant Josep. The mayors add that always they have defended and maintained that the music constitutes a very important assets for the tourism of the island and that, therefore, "cannot be despised neither to waste". "But we believe that should not be destined public money to this promotion focused only around the `fenómeno record store´, that they cannot intervene in her only seven nocturnal establishments neither only a sector and that any initiative should leave from the strict compliance of the legality [ordinances arrived at by consensus] on the part of the establishments dedicated to this activity", they aim. Exactly, the mayor of Sant Antoni does not understand why the president only called the owners of the seven large record stores of the island to undertake this question. "Only in Sant Antoni there is 40 ó 50 record stores", indicates Room, that recalls that carries years working to try "to reduce" the inconveniences that causes this activity and that now itself cannot be given "a step behind", indicated in reference to the fact that in the meeting on Saturday, as aims, was commented the businessmen that "there would be flexibility" on the part of the at the moment of regular Administration Of the record stores. "The music should be promoted. In that we are all in agreement, but that does not mean that the norms can be jumped", emphasized. The note of the mayors of the Popular Party recalls that the law of activities integrated has given "more faculties" to the City Hall in this matter, something that, next to the consensus on the ordinances, has permitted "to advance in the control of the irregularities and illegalities that are produced". "Therefore, we share the importance of the music as promotional element and the need to position the island like referring, but we are not willing to back down from the steps that have been given and the agreements that be adopted should respect above all the tranquility, the rest, the health and the welfare of the citizens, resident and visiting", concludes the note. The mayor of Holy Eulària, Vicent Marí, assures that "cannot be exploited" the image of the record stores if wants to be prompted the promotion of a destiny of "peace and tranquility". "Not public funds for this end can be invested", indicated. Marí considers that the initial agreement reached on the Consell of the Music "has been blurred", recalling that aside from the seven large record stores should also include itself the businessmen of the coffee-concert, "that are many", and "the resident artists", that, according to him, also
