The Association of Youth of Ibiza (AJE) has called a demonstration for next Sunday, September 20, to protest against the expansion of Ibiza airport. The mobilization will begin at 6 p.m. in Vara de Rey and will go through the main streets of the city until reaching the island council, where a manifesto will be read.

The Ibiza Town Hall and the Council of Ibiza have reported four cases of illegal tourist rental after inspecting 30 properties last week. These actions add to the 11 complaints for illegal tourist rental processed this year, according to the City Council. In addition, more than 27,000 euros in proposed sanctions related to transport have been imposed in joint controls.

A 27-year-old young man was seriously injured this Sunday after falling from a height of 17 meters in La Figuera Borda, in Ibiza.

Cala Saladeta was filled with people this Saturday during the Popular Xindriada convened by the Joves d'Eivissa association. The gathering also served as a protest event to denounce the consequences of overpopulation that, according to participants, the island is suffering.

In Ibiza and Formentera, the vocabulary related to livestock conveys a way of life where raising sheep and goats was part of the peasant economy and daily diet. It is not simply an abundance of names, but a precise lexicon that allowed animals to be distinguished according to species, sex, age, or their function within the flock.Words like ‘xai’, ‘anyell’, ‘moltó’, ‘ovella’, ‘cabrit’, ‘cabra’, and ‘boc’ are part of this rural universe. In the case of ovines, ‘xai’ and ‘anyell’ denote the young of the sheep, while ‘moltó’ identifies the adult male and ‘ovella’, the female. Among caprines, ‘cabrit’ is the name for the young, while ‘cabra’ and ‘boc’ distinguish adult animals according to sex. These are words known in the Catalan language as a whole, but in the Pitiuses they are integrated within a much broader peasant terminology, where differences in the animal’s age and state could have practical importance.

The Local Police of Ibiza detected this Friday at dawn, in a new operation, a possible illegal tourist dwelling after responding to an intervention due to noise complaints. As reported by the City Council, the 092 control room received the alert. The building's security guard had warned that the occupants of the dwelling were causing disturbances to neighbors and were not heeding instructions. Upon the agents' arrival, the tenants cooperated at all times and handed over the documentation related to their stay.

They call themselves Joves d’Eivissa and they presented themselves to society last January; in their short history they have already managed to raise certain expectations; it had been a long time since, in Ibiza, a collective of young people with the intention of organizing themselves and influencing political and social life had been seen. They want to do so from an identity-based project and critical of the economic model that prevails in the Balearic Islands. We have spoken with two of the members of the association, Sílvia Ramón Torres (21 years old, social educator) and Marc Serra Ramis (22 years old, video game development student). It has been said that members of Generation Z demonstrate a deeper social commitment than previous generations, at least on issues such as diversity, inclusion, and equality. May this interview serve as proof.

Pacma has filed an administrative complaint and a request for public and environmental information access to clarify the installation of an artificial lake during a private party held at La Pedrera, in Sant Antoni de Portmany, Ibiza.

Controversy in Sant Antoni de Portmany over an artificial lake installed during an Egyptian-themed party. The City Council has stated that it had no prior knowledge that the organization planned to create this ornamental element or to use water for it during the event, held last week at La Pedrera.

The organization of the Feels Like Festival, which took place on Wednesday in Sant Antoni de Portmany coinciding with the total solar eclipse, has denied that the person who died of cardiac arrest was inside the event venue.

Pau Arbona (Palma, 1986) is the director of the Parador d’Eivissa, the first to be built in the Balearic Islands and the 99th in the extensive network that makes up Paradors Nacionals. Surely, no parador has had such a tortuous history, from its construction decision in 2004 to its opening this March. During construction, the past of the dead and the projects of the living have clashed on more than one occasion: beneath the current building lies the long history of the city of Eivissa, since the first Phoenicians founded Ibosim about 2,600 years ago. Now, some of the archaeological remains found are on display and can be visited freely. Before receiving the commission to launch the Eivissa parador, Arbona has worked at the paradors of Benicarló, la Seu d’Urgell, and Plasència. Besides being a hotelier, he is a musician: a violinist and a specialist in traditional Balearic instruments. He is sure he will be able to fine-tune the Parador's operation until it is welcomed by both tourists and residents.

Like the Spanish national team, at the last minute. The thousands of people who chose the Variades area, in Sant Antoni de Portmany, this Wednesday to watch the eclipse, feared for twenty long minutes that the clouds would spoil the experience. Even some of the frustrated attendees began to whistle, following the logic of someone who would also applaud a sunset, as if the Sun could do anything about it. But just at the last second, the mixture of haze and clouds dissipated and at least the climax of the astronomical phenomenon could be contemplated: the 'diamond ring' effect just before the complete occultation; the halo of light when the Moon completely covers the Sun... A magical moment, even disturbing, if it weren't for the inevitable Ibizan soundtrack that accompanied it. And at full volume. The disco house that a DJ was playing at Café Mambo could be clearly heard from a good 400 meters away.

The No to Waste Import platform has publicly denounced that "the problems have already begun" as a result of the transfer of waste from Ibiza to Mallorca to be incinerated at the Tirme plant. In a statement, the organization, made up of more than 20 entities, stated that a few days ago an "incident" occurred at the incinerator which would have been caused by waste from Ibiza.

The Civil Guard is investigating the discovery of the lifeless body of a man found this Monday at sea, off the coast of Santa Eulària, in Ibiza. The corpse was in an advanced state of decomposition and carried no documentation that would allow its identity or origin to be determined.

A dozen social, environmental, and neighborhood organizations from Ibiza have denounced alleged discharges of wastewater from the Ibiza airport's treatment plant into the Torrent de la Font, which flows into the Ses Salines Natural Park. The organizations claim that four analysis campaigns carried out between June and July have detected contamination parameters that, according to their interpretation, would far exceed the limits established by regulations.

On August 12, 2026, the Balearic Islands will be one of the few places from which to contemplate a total solar eclipse. But it won't be enough to find yourself on the right island: the phenomenon will practically coincide with sunset and any building, tree or mountain that blocks the western horizon may prevent you from seeing its most spectacular moment.

The Balearic Islands will be one of the territories in the State most affected by the increase in heatwaves in the coming decades. According to the Atlas of Heat Vulnerability, developed by the urban analysis group Trescientosmil and the Department of Earth Sciences of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center within the framework of the European project Impetus4Change, the Islands and the Catalan coast lead the forecasts for the increase of this phenomenon until the year 2050.

It turns out that the influencer Mercè Molinas arrived at Ibiza airport one day in July and found a DJ playing in the middle of the duty free. Since she is an influencer and does this, influencing, the girl made a video that has gone viral and has accumulated more than 210,000 views on her Instagram account alone (@mercemolinas). The publication is from last July 13th. This DJ thing has stirred up some dust. Ibiza airport has been sold to nightclubs in the form of advertising for days now – if you think I'm exaggerating, visit the arrivals or baggage claim area – but to put a DJ there on top of it!... I want to assume that the event will have caused some perplexity, discomfort if nothing else, among the politicians and Ibizan prominent figures who, just a couple of days before, were receiving Aena's explanations about the Codolar expansion; a project that, virtually, could almost double the airport's capacity.

The lifeless body of a young man was found floating in the port of Ibiza from Sunday night to Monday, the National Police reported this Tuesday.
