ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
Election fever has officially arrived in Spain, with Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez calling a general election for November 29th and with housing once again dominating the political agenda, Balearic President Marga Prohens has made it pretty clear where she stands. Meanwhile, Spain’s two biggest unions are backing a general strike over the crisis.
Away from politics, North American airlines continue to expand their connections to the Balearics, bringing more visitors across the Atlantic and in Ibiza, a brand-new resort hotel in San Antonio has teamed up with Tomorrowland, one of the biggest names in electronic music, but while the partnership promises plenty of music and entertainment, not everyone is convinced that the plans fit comfortably with the local environment.
Over on Ibiza's east coast, Santa Eulalia is looking at measures designed to protect its small businesses, while putting greater controls on larger commercial operations and finally… the one question Ibiza visitors really want answered at this time of year: How much is it going to cost you to say goodbye to the Ibiza season?
The closing parties are here, the big clubs are preparing their final weekends, the DJs are getting ready for one last dance, and ticket prices range from relatively reasonable to, well… Ibiza.
All this & more on TALKING BALEARICS - in 2025, the Balearics welcomed around 19 million international visitors, including almost 4 million from the UK.
So whether you live here, visit regularly, or simply love these islands, you’re in the right place.
