People party at the Ushuaia nightclub in Ibiza, on June 17, 2022. After being closed for two years because of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Mediterranean island’s famous mega-clubs have reopened their doors, drawing throngs of partygoers. AFPPIX: A crowd dances to the pulsing beat of electronic music, hands in the air, at the Pacha nightclub near the main marina on the Spanish holiday island of Ibiza.
“We still can’t say for certain that the numbers will be better than 2019, but everything indicates yes.” The pandemic affected all sectors but the leisure sector -- which employs over 3,000 people directly and indirectly -- was the last to fully open up after virus restrictions were lifted.Roberto de Lope, the director general of nightclub operator Ushuaia Entertainment, said it was a “relief” to finally open their club on the island on April 30 and start selling drinks.
“I think Ibiza has realised that we don’t just live off parties,“ said Jaume Ribas, the spokesman of an association called “Prou”, or “enough” in Catalan, which has for years lobbied against mass tourism on the island.Blessed with scores of stunning coves and beaches, Ibiza is home to just 152,000 people but its population swells to up to 450,000 during the peak summer holidays.
“Obviously leisure is an essential product for us, we are a world-renowned brand thanks to electronic music,“ Costa added.
