Gay scene in ibiza
Ibiza is considered one of the top European LGBTQIA hotspots, with many contending that it's the optimal of all. Why? Ibiza is a clubbers and hedonists paradise and if that doesn't attract same-sex attracted and people of all other sexual orientations, we don't know what does.
There's so much more to it than that though. Ibiza had one of the first organised, if clandestine, gay scenes in Spain in the 60's – in short the island has a distant history with gay culture as you will notice when you walk around the Gay and LGBTQIA area in Ibiza Town.
As well as a very good dedicated gay scene, you'll find that many places are mixed: here sexual orientation is cute much a non-issue. There are some LGBTQIA / mixed nights in the super clubs, though you will find that just about most club nights are going to be LGBTQIA friendly. With so many world-beating and hugely influential club nights, you owe it to yourself to make it part of your experience.
Gay bars and clubs are mainly located in Ibiza Town, the fortified old town Dalt Vila and the suburb Figueretas – it's the gay hub of the island, especially in and around the road of Calle de la Virgen in the port area where you'll glimpse much col

Ibiza is well-regarded for its inclusive nature and for the outlandish shows it puts on every summer. Big, bold glamour and extravagance have their place at many parties, where dazzling outfits and sparkling personalities are noted and admired.
While there may not be any exclusively gay clubs nights or parties, there are many options that swing that way, encouraging the expression of fierceness and flamboyance, with a little extra hot sauce added when needed.
The island really is a garden of delights waiting to be discovered, and the clubbing scene is just one big party, where everyone is welcome to find their control place on the dancefloor.

About Ibiza and its same-sex attracted life
When dropouts and hippies began to discover Ibiza for themselves in the 1960s, no one would hold guessed that the Balearic island would soon become one of Europe's most popular summer commute destinations. Today, more than two million tourists come to the island every year and the population has more than quadrupled since the 1960s: 150,000 people now survive on the island, abou
