The Blue Bar will close at 02.00 hours and Formentera is officially without nightlife.

Formentera has a nightlife offer that is limited to two nightclubs and some cocktail bars. This year, the two dance halls are closed for not having been able to finish the renovation works in time and that has focused almost exclusively the nightlife offer in the legendary Blue Bar, located in Migjorn and is open until 04.00 hours.

The management of the Blue Bar has stated in a communiqué that as of August 27 they are withdrawing «definitively from nightlife and we will close at 02.00 hours». The note goes on to state «a huge pressure that we have never really wanted» and add that «a very sad factor has been added and is the quality of tourism and the type of people who currently visit the premises and Formentera; in many moments really unpleasant, with aggressive attitude, despot and no respect for the island, nor for business. That generates many fights, something that our family has never wanted».

In conversation with Periódico de Ibiza y Formentera, the owner of the Blue Bar, Rico Hartmann, said: «The Blue Bar has always been a place of good vibes and we don't want to support this kind of behavior. We will concentrate on a beautiful sunset, concerts and cultural activities and good food and say goodbye to the night after 33 years».

Thus, at the end of the season the island will be practically without nightlife.
