Think about 2021.

Maybe Stivi can tell his opinion : Will all the clubs survive if 2020 is a closed season ?
I learnt from him costs are not low , even when the doors are shut.
 
season as in people going on holidays for the beach - maybe autumn. clubs won't be allowed to open this year at all, I'm afraid. festivals the same, everything with over a 100 people will be allowed only when corona virus is barely on any statistic.
 
Learnt it from Stivi in the german forum. They have contracts , employes and a lot of different things before the season. I thought before its not much : Closed club cist nearly nithing , was my opinion.
Ahh that's interesting... To know.. I suppose they have to have things put in place beforehand

Yes for sure fastest way to spread it in that environment

Outside the Thread : I thought , they only rent
the club itself. The promoter is doing the rest to his own risk. Someone told me its like this. But Stivi told different things and he knows ... That means they need income to pay the bills

I hope the government will help ibiza they will need it

Yeh the night club life will really suffer, promoters, parties, festivals

DJs have taken their brand on tour, cocoon , DC 10, music on, and all has to stop till end of the year or next year
 
What’s the Spanish governments support scheme like for workers if things don’t open?

try googling 'ERTE' and see if you find an english article maybe on the subject. this is one of the measures. then there's the 'paro' (again, research a little). but obviously it's gonna hit the islands (canary and balearics) hard if 2020 is a no-tourism year.
 
This is the response from Jet 2 about my holiday to Ibiza on the 23rd June.

They expect to resume flying to Ibiza on the 1st May. Of course they are trying to get my full payment from me.

But who are they to say if things will be up and running in Ibiza come June the 23rd?
I'm in a very similar predicament with Jet2 Holidays and our early July trip.
 
2021 I think. Pretty sure my August Visit will be cancelled but still hoping to get over December 19th for my 40th. 3/4 nights with the Girlfriend
 
If they haven't started by Sept 1st then I can't see the point of starting at all. But on saying that, even one month's income is better than nothing. If they do start then, I doubt the big clubs will be on....can they prepare and guarantee people will turn up? So we end up with a quieter season, few stag parties (ie stuff that needs months of planning) and maybe a late rush in October.
It would be nice if they took this chance to have a go at a winter season as Mallorca does round the corner.
 
According Exceltur, season could start 4 weeks after government ending (provably April 26) the big confinement, but they talk about national tourism, so ibiza will see delayed the arrival of foreign tourists.

So being positive I think the optimistic prediction is very late June, depends on the situation in the other countries and the restrictions of capacity in places like nightclubs that the Spanish government will announce once the confinement is finished. None government wants to make mistakes in that crisis so strong restrictions are expected regarding big amounts of people meetings.
The second option of starting season is mid July, and the worst option in my opinion is mid August.

For sure is more than possible that some clubs decides not to open this season, and others will only opens 3 nights friday, saturday, sunday (when the few tourists will decide to travel for 3-4 days escape).

One thing is clear, of the few tourism that is going to come to Ibiza this summer the majority will be families or completely different than clubbers tourism, because families or similars not focus their holidays to restrictions in closed spaces. (La Vanguardia yesterday predicts Balearic Islands will lose 40% of tourism),

"In Exceltur's most optimistic scenario, "from mid-June there will start to be some movement" and the level prior to the health crisis will not recover until October. All this, considering the projections of organizations such as the Polytechnic University of Valencia that points to the peak of infections and deaths will be reached in Spain around May 20. From then on, he considers that "it will probably be a few weeks (between three and four) until the travel decisions begin to recover," with a slow and gradual return to normality. "
In addition, demand is expected to undergo a recovery at two speeds: a faster one for local trips and private vehicles, basically national demand, and elements of the tourist offer of limited size; and a slower one in trips with shared transport (train or plane, fundamentally" https://www.eleconomista.es/empresa...rano-y-reclama-al-Gobierno-ayudas-reales.html

My advice based on my recent experience with them is to wait until you get their mail saying it's cancelled and they'll be in touch, but then ring them. They offered a voucher etc but refunded when requested. I would have liked to support them by taking the voucher, but have no faith whatsoever in this Government's suggestion that such liabilities will be refunded by the Govt in the event of companies/ATOL failing.
