11 DJs tell us how they feel about Space Ibiza closing for good
It's the end of an era
Mambo Brothers
Well, it's a great shame that Space has to close, but the reality is that it leaves an amazing legacy for the electronic music industry. A club that has repeatedly won the award for best club in the world will always be remembered. It's been so nice to see an ibicenco like us – Pepé Rosello from San Antonio – become recognised worldwide. We really hope Pepé surprises us with a new project.
Moving forward, the venue itself will continue to operate under a new direction, so it’s not like it will completely disappear. Playa d'en Bossa today has two massive venues that attract thousands of people and that will be exactly the same next year, so in that sense, things won’t change. With the new club we’ll surely see some new DJs and promoters, as well as some moves from existing players – this is how it has always been in Ibiza. It’s a shame to lose one of the icons of Ibiza, but the show must go on. Long live Space!
