Parties & Paradise – History of Ibiza

Ibiza is different from the other Balearic islands. It has been a melting pot for free spirits from all over the world. When the first hippies visited the island, the fascist regime under General Franco was still in power in Spain. But on Ibiza, dropouts enjoyed a free life. Ibiza stands for freedom and joie de vivre. Music greats such as Jim Morrison, Freddie Mercury, and Grace Jones made the island a hotspot of the international music scene. Sixty years later, there is something of the spirit of the generation that created the island's legend still in the air. Ibiza has not only spawned the most important clubs in the world and its very own style of fashion, but also a very special attitude towards life that still captivates visitors of the white island to this day.
