Word has it that the pukka up party that i reported about in the post NYE in Ibiza has now been cancelled. This is due to insufficient ticket sales. This will also mean that the pukka up new years day party has also been cancelled.

I think it would be a good Idea if we can have a list of Ibiza related podcasts. Again till it gets closer to summer i expect the list to become more populated. I will keep this list up to date the best i can. I will first try and link to the website the podcast can be found on and if there isnt one then i will link to the podcast on iTunes. I have decided to add Dj’s podcasts to the list of any DJ you might hear while your in Ibiza.
If you know of any Ibiza related podcasts then let me know and i will add them to the list. Keep checking back to this post over the coming months to see what new has popped up. You can send me podcast info to info@ibizablog.co.uk
I have now added another page which has a map of Ibiza and places of interest. It started with a test to see if what i had in mind would work and it does so ill leave it be. With time i will add to the map with more than just the clubs and bars. I’m not sure how far i should go with it but for now ill keep adding to it. With time i will try and add official links to the relevant places if they have websites and i will also try and add links to Youtube video’s of the places in the description. Keep checking back cause it will keep changing and getting better. If you want to take a look then check out the Ibiza map of interest.
Following on from my post yesterday about CircoLoco New Years Day 2008, i have been looking round to see what else is on in Ibiza this new year. There were originally plans for Amnesia to be open on the 31st of December but these have since been shelved because from what i believe, they are refurbishing the terrace. However there are still more nights on the island to go to if you are making your way over.
The First night is one you expect to be open, Pacha are open on NYE and they have Kurd Maverick and Angel Linde. Standard tickets for this are €35. Also connected with Pacha this NYE is Pukka Up. Pukka Up are organising a two day trip to Ibiza on a plane banging out music all the way over! you get entry to pacha, entry to a pukka up after party and your accommodation for £399.
Also open on new year’s eve is Underground. There is no confirmation on the lineup and their official website has no lineup either. However this club has been open all winter so its expected to be really busy for NYE.

At 8am in the morning on New Year’s day CircoLoco will throw open its doors to the crazy people who grace the dance floor at DC10! This could be your last chance to be tearing up the dance floor before 12 noon as i reported in my post about ‘No more after hours in Ibiza‘ The lineup is as follows
If you are going then Have a good one and maybe drop me a review and I could post it.
**UPDATE**
I have discovered that it will cost €30 for a ticket to DC10 on new years day.

The Town hall of San Jose Ibiza have passed new legislation that will stop bars and clubs opening first thing in the morning. This means that you will no longer be able to roll from one club to another like many people have done in the past. Clubs like Space and DC10 will no longer be able to open at the times they have done in the past. The legislation states that no bar or club playing music can open before 12 noon. That means that all clubs must be closed for a minimum of 6 hours a day.
For allot of people this may not be a problem as many people say the after parties don’t really get going till after that time anyway. The biggest impact this law will have will probably be on Space as the club has built itself on parties in the morning and through the day, Not to mention one of the most popular events on the island ‘Sundays at space’ which was famed for being open for 22 hours straight.
They say this has been done to try and stop people coming out of the clubs (in various states) and mingling with families and other non clubbing tourists.

I have now set up a car hire page. The aim of this is to tell you what the price is for Ibiza car hire Again i have looked through a couple of sites to bring you the cheapest prices they have online. As time goes on this page will get bigger. A Car is the best way to travel around Ibiza and trust me there are some very nice places to go to. Follow this link for Ibiza Car Hire
Having a look today i have found some good deals on flights to Ibiza. Flying from Luton to Ibiza you can get there for £62.93 per person return. This is a great price but im sure flights like this will sell out fast. check out or Ibiza Flights page for other flights.
The price in this post was correct on the 14th December 2007
Something new for 2008 is something i have only just found out about. It looks like the people from Manumission are getting back into the hotel industry! 2008 will see the opening of the Ibiza Rocks Hotel.
The new home for the night Ibiza Rocks is in San Antonio not to far from Kanya and Coastline and will play hosts to live bands as part of the hotel entertainment on top of the weekly Ibiza Rocks event.
It could become the place to be with the introduction of restrictions to club opening times, Information is not to clear but i dont think hotels are covered by the new restrictions (ill get back on that one).
Either way im sure there will be alot of stories coming from that direction.
If you fancy staying in the Ibiza rocks hotel this year then there are a couple of ways to do it, you can use the link above or you can visit Broadwaytravel who are the main travel company associated with sending people to the Ibiza Rocks hotel.
Ive had a quick ganders and 2 people can get there for £939.00 for 2 weeks in June.
