Event Previews & Reviews from Ibiza

I recently had the opportunity to hop aboard one of Ibiza’s most famous boat party companies, Pukka Up. I was lucky enough to join them for their Friday sunset trip and having heard all about their raging parties, I was pretty excited to get onboard ‘the biggest boat party in the world’.

There is no denying that Ibiza Rocks is one of the ultimate hot spots to visit this summer. With a banging line-up of acts and an incredible venue for them to perform in, not to mention drink prices that don’t require a platinum card, Ibiza Rocks has got what we’re looking for and that is something just a little bit different.

Sunday saw the grand finale of the 2nd Annual Ibiza Pride Festival and after a week of events, parties and celebrations it certainly closed in style with a parade through the streets of Ibiza old town and a street party on the Vara De Ray.

It’s that time of year again, September has hit, the closing parties have begun and one of the first to close up their 2016 Ibiza residency was one of the surprise hits of the summer: The Craig David TS5 pool party. This event has been taking over Ibiza Rocks hotel every Sunday of the summer and the last one swung into action on September 4th. It was the busiest by far as crowds arrived early to catch the man in action for the last time – at least for this summer.

Ibiza Rocks, the home of live music in Ibiza, has come through once again. An amazing night of real bands, real music and real rock with the Kaiser Chiefs lighting up the stage with all the energy of their original explosion into peoples Indie Rock hearts over 10 years ago.  

Whether you’re looking for some quiet time alone with a classic film, a romantic location for a date night or an unforgettable spot for a group hang out Cinema Paradiso has got you covered. Their open-air cinema set up inside the fortified walls of Dalt Vila old town is an incredibly atmospheric place to spend an evening.

Somethings are just mandatory for your time in Ibiza and hitting up a pool party is definitely one of them. This summer the pool party crown is likely to be placed on the head of multi-platinum selling, comeback kid Craig David and his TS5 event. He is bringing his friends and taking over Sundays with a residency at the Ibiza Rocks hotel, every week from 17th July to 4th September 2016.

Beautiful Cala Benirras is situated in the north of the island and has acquired a reputation for itself as being a 'must-see' spot on your Ibizan tour due to its hippy heritage, stunning sunsets and the drummers who congregate there to drum down the sunset.

It’s not often that one thinks of culture in relation to San Antonio but for a month this summer the boozy, bar crawl of a town in south west Ibiza is getting a chance to show people that it’s about more than just binge drinking and boat parties as it plays host to the annual Bloop festival.
