You know the summer is just around the corner when your favourite venues start rolling up the shutters, and the next to do so is Café Mambo, which will open on Friday May 12 from 6pm. The famous Ibiza destination welcomes the new season and another series of spiritual, end-of-day sunset rituals followed by the hottest talent on the international scene in the famous booth overlooking the sunset strip in San Antonio.

Café Mambo has been responsible for some of those much talked about Ibiza moments during its tenure on the island, from Jamie Cullum singing ‘You’ve Got The Love’ at Sunset to live performances from Brand New Heavies with Carl Cox playing keyboard and, more recently, Duke Dumont for BBC Radio 1. Last summer saw Fatboy Slim takeover the booth as well as countless amazing pre-clubs parties from some of the world’s biggest brands. That will continue again through 2017 as Mambo maintains its relationship with many of the island’s most popular events.

The waterfront bar/ restaurant is not just about the pre-club parties however. The venue is open all day and ideal for an early coffee and breakfast or a long lunch on the terrace, soaking up its breathtaking view. For sunset, we advise to get down early, book your table on the promenade and enjoy dinner as day eases into night. Enjoy the eclectic musical talent of the resident DJs as they soundtrack one of the must-have Ibiza experiences while the sky changes colour several times before the sun disappears below the horizon.

The Mambo opening party, while it is a signal to clubbers around the world to make sure they have their dates booked for the annual pilgrimage to the white isle, is also a chance for the island to come together before the madness takes over. No matter where you live on the island or what you do, everyone has memories of Café Mambo and, traditionally, they get together to celebrate the arrival of another summer and to catch up and swap stories. For early tourists and workers looking to secure their job for the summer, it’s a chance to enjoy one of the island’s truly authentic experiences and it all kicks off on Friday May 12 from 6pm as Café Mambo welcomes Ibiza 2017, see you on the waterfront.
