I predict the end of the West end within a decade.
Define "end".

I predict a higher success rate for guys/gals on the pull. People will be double fistin the shots now. Years from now, you will meet children (conceived in SanAn no less) named after the streets and bars where their parents met. We may be at the dawn of a new renaissance! Lonely hearts worldwide will descend upon its fabled streets!

New marketing campaign:

"West End is for lovers."

My sister is called" capone" now you mention it......
 
I reckon in 3 years the shite pubs and discos will all but have disappeared and instead it'll have a craft brewery, a couple of artisanal cheese/bread/sausage shops, a cornflakes bar, vintage clothes market, cool hybrid barber hangout shops to have a beer with your mate the barber while you get your moustachio waxed, art popups, streetfood markets, media art collectives etc.
 
The clubs will get incredibly busy if this goes through. Nobody goes on a night out in ibiza and goes home at 3am. I predict the end of the West end within a decade.

Will the bigger venues in the West End do better though? Like Hush and Play 2 - Plenty of space inside to drink, sit and dance - Could these clubs have a bit of a comeback?

:) Brilliant!
 
Reading through all this - about an area I know little about - makes me ask; if the "typical" San An punters are faced with restrictions - won't they eventually migrate to somewhere else on the island where the bar owners find out they can make $$$'s by opening late and playing music as loud as they can? So in future whilst San An may be a touch quieter,. the authorities then have to clamp down somewhere else?

Point being, we know what San An is like and if we don't like it we keep away, rather have the football songs sung there than, say, on the gay streets of the old town, or the front at the port?

Or is the point that locals who have to live in San An are so fed up?

that would make the council very happy. actually, as part of their strategic plan to change san antonio they will be giving financial support to the new business that help diversify its touristic offer... the condition is very clear: it can't be related to nightlife. their goal is that one day clubbers won't be the main type of visitor!

so if anyone wants to start a non-clubbing related venture in san antonio now is the time...

Privilege and Es Paradis complain against the mayors of Sant Josep and Sant Antoni
They accuse the mayors of "intentional dereliction" in controlling noise from other entertainment


The clubs Privilege and Es Paradis have filed a complaint in court guard against the mayors of Sant Antoni, Josep Tur, and Sant Josep, Josep Marí Ribas, accusing them of "allow and even encourage their attitude hatching and maintenance of a new leisure (hotels disco, beach-clubs ...) attractive to a particular target audience because you can enjoy the loud music at all hours of the day and in open spaces and even domain public".

The lawsuit considers that this action involves an "intentional dereliction of promoting the prosecution of crimes that have news," defined in article 408 of the Penal Code.

Representatives of Privilege and Es Paradis and understand that "a mayor must know what is happening in their municipality when it is public knowledge and, to make matters worse, you hear almost all the municipal territory".
As indicated in the complaint, which provides sonometric and a private detective focused solely on Ushuaïa of Platja d'en Bossa reports, "the mayors against the action have been required to enforce the law is addressed, including their own ordinances municipal, on noise pollution. "

The complaint refers only to four specific premises, Ushuaïa and the Blue Marlin, Sant Josep, and Ibiza Rocks and Ocean Beach, Sant Antoni
, and calls for practice in all legal recognition.

Privilege and Es Paradis announce that provide an economic study of "losses" that both have suffered by the alleged tolerance of the defendants mayors respect to other establishments

According to Cadena Ser radio, both mayors will have to go to the courts for the excess of noise in their municipalities... Es Paradis and Privilege making friends!
both mayors went to the courts today after es paradis and privilege denounced them... instead of admitting their line-ups are a bit rubbish they blame the lack of punters in their clubs to daytime venues like ocean beach club, blue marlin, etc:

RIDICULOUS!
Both are victims of yet another clubs war.... That denounce is going nowhere!
The Ibizan

It’s War!
  • Ibiza’s old school clubs declare war on new generation of open-air venues.
Privilege and Es Paradis denounce two Ibiza mayors for not acting against music hotels and beach clubs.

A war between the traditional clubs of Ibiza and the new breed of hotels and beach clubs offering open air music has begun.

The owners of Privilege and Es Paradis, two of Ibiza’s oldest discos which have been operating since the 1970s, have denounced the mayors of San Jose and San Antonio, who they accuse of allowing the ever expanding open air venues of ‘flouting permitted noise levels’.

The mayor of San Jose, Josep Mari Ribas, and his San Antonio counterpart, Jose Tur, have been reported by the clubs for failing to prosecute a crime, specifically against the environment by not controlling the noise and music of several venues.

The complainants state that they have spent millions of euros in recent years to soundproof and cover their nightclubs following regulations, which forced party establishments to enclose their venues to avoid noise pollution.

“We spent about 6m€ on the soundproofing of Privilege” said Jose Maria Etxaniz, one of the clubs partners as reported in El Pais. Etxaniz went on to say that some of his counterparts “have been ruined” in attempting to comply with noise regulations.

Their complaint argues that these regulations are not being applied in the flourishing music hotel sector, who offers concerts and outdoor events with apparent impunity. They also complain of the beach club sector, which has proliferated in recent years, and they say have live music without the same regulations being applied. “What was prosecuted and persecuted a few years ago in our establishments has appeared again at other venues with no action taken by the authorities” affirm the complainants.

Privilege and Es Paradis employed a private detective to take decibel readings in several hotels and beach clubs. These regularly recorded sound at around 100dB where the maximum allowed is at most 65dB “the municipalities do nothing and the local police are far more concerned with the taxi’s arriving at the venues than they are noise regulations” said lawyer of the public prosecution Joan Cerda.

The detectives report was included in the complaint together with a similar commission by the political party Epic in 2013 which stated that noise pollution on one of the hotels identified reaches residential areas over 3km away.

Reacting to the complaints, San José’s mayor Ribas stated that their town hall have initiated more than 200 cases against those breaching noise regulations. “We cannot be accused of doing nothing against certain premises,” he said after appearing before the judge hearing the complaints.

San Antonio mayor Tur reported to the proceedings that the borough have filed 2 complaints through the criminal court against venues accused of breaching noise regulations.

El Pais reported that both mayors consider themselves victims in what they consider is a business battle between the clubs.
as expected, the war between es paradis and privilege vs certain open air venues didn't go anywhere:
