The Insular Direction of the Administration of the State in the Pitiüses has attended order of closing for the discoteca Amnesia (a month as of the next Tuesday) and the premises of nocturnal leisure Bora Bora and DC10 (one and two months, respectively, to count from the next Monday), in application of individual investigations initiated between 2005 and 2006 to tolerate the consumption or sale of drug inside the establishments. In addition, each premises will have to face a fine of 6,000 euros. The three orders of closing are firm and must immediately be executed, although they can be resorted before the courts of the contentious-administrative thing. Eivissa | C. Navarro/S. Parra "Tolerance zero with drugs". The closing of the three establishments obeys to the interest of the Government, and by extension of the Delegation in Balears and the Insular Direction pitiusa, in "increasing to the pressure" on the sale and the consumption of narcotic substances in Eivissa during the months of summer, an activity that causes "chaos situations" and "a very harmful image" for the tourism, indicated sources of the Department of the Interior. Three sanctions of closing, that can more be since other files in transaction by reasons exist such, are consequence of denunciations made by the Civil Guard during both last summers. These procedures are "extremely" garantistas and thus, in other zones of the country, a sanction by the same causes would entail a prolonged order of closing more. However, from Interior they remember that the damage that can cause the closing in Eivissa of the premises of these characteristics during a month, "is equivalent to a year in any other part" due to the volume of business that is registered in the island. In addition, from Interior they clarified that the gravity of the sanctions "is limited" because they do not exist preceding of closing of discotecas by these reasons and because "we are conscious that the industry of the nocturnal leisure is very important for the islands". In any case, the closing of these three establishments demonstrates that "there will be no tolerance" and that the application of the law will become "without contemplations", noticed the same sources. The denunciations are consequence of performances of the Civil Guard inside the premises, where they observed the consumption or the sale of drugs (as much the breach of the closing schedules as of decrees of noises they are competition of the city councils). The same sources indicated that the transaction of these files extends during months; after the seizure of the drug and its later analysis, incoa the mandatory file, that if it finishes in sanction can be resorted after the reception of the charge sheet and the presentation of allegations. Finally, the sanctioned establishment can present/display an administrative contentious resource. With the firm sanction, the establishment is five to make cash the closing count from the reception of the order, independently of which it presents/displays an administrative contentious resource. In this case, as much to the Bora Bora as to the DC10 Tuesday communicated to them the past the sanction, reason why they will have to close this Sunday, mientra that the people in charge of Amnesia received the communication Wednesday, reason why no longer will be able to open until the next month of July. Impossible control the decision made by the Insular Direction has caused malaise between the people in charge of the affected premises. In the case of the Bora Bora, sources of the company considered that the made decision is "unjust" and that a level of monitoring impossible is demanded to the premises to assume. "If somebody wants to consume drugs are going to control the security personnel, identified clearly, and it will do it when these cannot see it. The Police and the Civil Guard act of countryman and is when they discover them. We cannot do that nor can put to a watchman by each client ", considered the same sources. "measures against us are taken but the certain thing is that drugs, unfortunately, are consumed in all premises of leisure, here and in Guadalajara. He is something that the young people have very rooted. Before, when you left, you amused tomándote glasses solely, now also they consume drugs ", they added. On the other hand, from Amnesia it was yesterday avoided to comment in depth the decision although it was not doubted in labeling the resolution as the Administration like "policy". Today it is predicted that the discoteca of Sant Rafel emits a note of press written up with the attendance of its lawyers in whom the happened thing will be valued. This newspaper tried yesterday, without success, to successfully obtain the opinion of some person in charge of room DC-10.

amnesia and bora bora are closed for 1 month from yesterday and DC-10 is closed for 2 months. apparently the clubs will appeal the decision.

I can't see amnesia moving their club nights elsewhere because most other clubs already have their nights locked in for the season.

amnesia is a wicked club, but there is still heaps of other stuff on and you will still enjoy yourself. don't let it stress you

Damn...Amnesia was my favourite...

But just beating Space by a bit...

Theres always alternatives...problem is all clubs are packed when I went last August with all the clubs opened...if these clubs are closed for a month or so...how jam pack will the other clubs be?

Im with onRi

not being able to go to the Armada opening party (armin :( ) AND the cream party with 3 of my fav djs is a pretty big deal to moi... plus when you live 24 hours by plane its not like i can go back next month, so of course the brits are going to say its not a very big deal

That said, im going to be positive and hope that amnesia will open in a couple of weeks... right when i get there :lol:

there is a rumour that coccoon will transfer to privilege for their first 3 nights until Amnesia re-opens. Privilege doesn't have anything on Monday nights at the moment.

DC-10 is good fun, but certainly not worth cancelling your trip just for that.

view it as an opportunity to experience new sounds and DJ's. i went to Ibiza as a prog and house fan back in 2003 and came back a techno fan. i know it's hard when you don't get to see your favourite DJ's but you will still enjoy the experience........just go with an open mind.

word, I went in 1991 and wasn't really into electronica. One week on the white island and that changed forever.... :bow:

Im sure everything will be just fine, thats their economy, is based on turism, lets call it happy turism.And is not worthy for them to close the place everyone wants to visit. In those places is like, with money everything is solved nice and easy.

Amnesia is back open again this Saturday, which means they'll be missing one Cream, not sure what they're gonna do as they've got PVD booked, but hey.

Bora Bora is back up and running again, the only one missing out is DC10, I reckon that will be open again in a couple of weeks ready for all you punters to get messy in the sun, yeeehaaa!

Hola,
Ben Korbel and myself are living over here for the summer and reporting for ITM. The clubs closing was a big shock and deal over here. Maybe not so for the locals who don’t go to them or don’t like the crowds they bring every summer.

All clubs are now open BUT...

Bora Bora is not allowed to have the music play outdoors. So no more partying on the beach and everything inside with the windows shut.

DC10 has a roof and windows have been put in so no more greeting the people coming in on planes when it fly’s directly overhead BUT they have placed industrial strength air con in the inside room that drys you off in a second after being out in the terrace.

Amnesia is open and all nights are a blazing!

If you are coming over here and arrive late at night especially on weekends I suggest you have a driver pick you up or a bus arranged with your hotel. There have been 3 hr waits for taxis. There aren’t enough on the island.

If yuo need the number for a good taxi (mini cab) as the normal official cabs can be very scarce, PM me and will msg you some numbers. it can make life easier from the airport especially at peak periods eg. weekends. B

There's more than 2 clubs in Ibiza. You cant walk 4 steps without someone offering you a coupon for a club and free drink upon arrival, even though the free drink coupon is never valid.

Yeah the taxi problem is still ongoing. Its best to just hire a car for your stay.. or scooter thingy..

I can't comment on DC-10, but Bora Bora was in full swing when I was there a few weeks ago

if you're going with a few people just get an "unofficial" taxi - never had a problem... easy as
