ONE OF THE WORLDS BEST NIGHTCLUBS AMNESIA IBIZA

- In this Ibiza video we fly a drone around one of the worlds best nightclubs Amnesia Ibiza located in the Mediterranean Island of Ibiza in Spain, Amnesia, the temple of electronic music. Home to the best DJs and the best parties. Pyramid, Cocoon, Together, Abode, elrow and much more.Amnesia is one of several internationally renowned clubs in Ibiza. It opened in 1976; the venue was awarded Best Global Club in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2011 at the IDMA Awards in Miami. The club is located close to the village of San Rafael on the highway between Sant Antoni de Portmany and Ibiza Town. The origins of Amnesia are in April 1970, when the Planells family who had inhabited the house for five generations decided to move into town and sell their finca (country house) to a widow from an aristocratic background. Ibiza, which had become a destination for tourism already in the fifties, was at that time a hive for counterculture and idealists and the building that was to become Amnesia turned into a meeting point with hippie bands playing and other facets of hippie culture taking place.
In May 1976, Antonio Escohotado, a Madrid born philosopher who had arrived on the island five years earlier to start a new life, signed a lease with the landlady for use of the premises. He launched a discotheque named "El taller de los olvidadizos" ("The Workshop of the Forgetful Ones"). He wanted to express that when people go out at night it is to forget their problems and indulge in an unknown world far away from ordinary routine. However, the next day he realized that the Greek word Amnesia contains it all.
In 1978, Ginés Sánchez, a manufacturer from Madrid took over Amnesia. Unexpected closings alternated with wonderful summers with capacity crowds in active competition with the other discothèques, such as Ku (now Privilege), Pacha, Glory's and Lola's.
In the 1980s, Prontxio Izaguirre took over the running of Amnesia, and the music changed to dance music, a mix between pop and funk, and hip hop. Freestyle mixing was permitted and house was about to take over. The original Balearic Beat emerged invented by legends like DJ Alfredo Fiorito.[5] On the night of June 22, 1991 Amnesia reopened under MFC management. It is at this time that the clubs of Ibiza began to gain international fame. In the mid nineties, Ezna Sands was instrumental in the arrival of many UK promoters and labels, including the legendary Joseph Mullen, onto the Balearic Island and into Amnesia specifically. This heralded a shift in the perception that the Island was simply a destination for 18-30 holiday makers, instead becoming the mecca for dance music enthusiasts with Amnesia and Pacha.
The club experienced expansion with the number of bars increasing from four to 16, and from a staff of 30 to more than 200 employees during the summer festivities. The staff now includes waiters, go-go dancers, security and administration staff. Nowadays the venue has a capacity of 5,000 people and is divided into two areas: Main Room and Terrace and is home to Do Not Sleep, Elrow parties amongst a host of other artists playing here from Carl Cox, Martin Garrix, Armin Van Buuren, & many many more

#Ibiza #Travel #Ibiza2021
My first time there was 1998 on a monday, I got flashbacks from your video, remembering the old floor before the renovations. Then memories…..I almost started crying, better times than today. I had to pause and rewatch after I got a grip on myself. Covid life sucks.
That's amazing thanks for sharing and sorry if I made you cry but it's a good cry 🤣
This just pooped up again and it was great to watch. My first time was 1998 and my last was 2019, before Covid. I'm 64 now and not a frequent clubber but man, I still miss it.
Haven't been Ibiza yet but my time will come! Wish I had the money and was a few years older in the early 2000s!
A part of all of us will always be there!!!🤗
Firstly, fantastic sweeps of the club by the drone operator....flying up stairs, through hand-rails, between both rooms, over the DJ booth, until finally coming to rest pointing at the "Amnesia" logo. Really great footage! And seemingly, all in a single take with no cuts!
Secondly, my first time in Amnesia (which occurred the first time I went to Ibiza in 2001) was at GODS KITCHEN (a trance night), on Thursday nights. These were the years when Ferry Corsten was huge and doing his best work. The nights at Gods Kitchen really hammered home my desire and need to come back to Ibiza year after year and enjoy the club scene, which i've done since then (except 2020). I aim to be back twice in 2022.
Awesome footage wasn't it, thanks for sharing and commenting
I have so many memories in this club, so many jaded memories anyway lol
The best club, 2003 Cream lineup Tiesto ,PVD ,Oakenfold
I was there that night
Such an amazing & legendary club and thank you for an amazing video around the club.
As an old trance head my self, I've listened to so many legendary dj sets from this club from legends as Tiesto, Above & Beyond, Armin Van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, Judge Jules and so on.... Never been to the island, but I hope to visit it and this amazing club one day :)
Lovely place, was there a lot in the 90's. I'm coming next year. Cream was great.
Awesome, yeah shame creams gone it was a sad day for me that
🕺💃🔊🔉🔈💃🕺 love these videos weird looking at the night clubs empty keep up the good work🎉🎊
Thanks Noel will do
What a place! Cream was def my favourite night here back 5-8 years ago!!
Good times
Thursday night was always the best back in the day, Cream would always be the highlight of the week.
Amazing the place looks so different empty.
Yeah it was top banana
Had amazing time in ibiza 1998 club 18 -30 went to every club including amnesia even managed to get the apple flag from es paradis fond memories x
I was there, 2007 if I am not mistaken. Great memories. :)
As a mature adult now looking back on your vlog, wow brought back a great night 1999 with Carl Cox behind the decks in amnesia, sunrise and gouryella pumping in the terrace. Still remember it 25 yrs on👍, sad to hear about privilege, was there 1998 and 1999 for manumission ❤
Goosebumps as always ...
That’s some incredible drone piloting
He's the best
Iv been three times but the most recent was in 2017. I went twice during that trip. 1st to see marco carola at music on the friday then elrow on the saturday. Elrow was mind blowing! So good! Im going back this year too so these videos are a great warm up!
the first club I had ever been to in Ibiza back in 2019. was one of the best nights of my life hands down cant wait to go back one day
Awesome best times
Had some great nights in there stretching back to the 90s. Loved the Cocoon nights later on and favourite was probably when Dubfire played the Terrace. He dropped a dance remix of one of my favourite ever tunes by my favourite band Depeche Mode. That tune was Behind the Wheel from the Music for the Masses album.
Pivotol moment for me because i first heard Depeche Mode play this live in reunified Berlin on 1990s World Violation tour. Was a big buzz hearing a remix of it 20 years later in my favourite Club by one of my favourite Djs on the Magical island.
Will be there again and in Amnesia in 5 weeks time nearly another 15 years later. 🙌
2023,elrow, August it was amazing Nothing can Beat Amnesia
Came here I’d say 2009 absolutely loved my experience even the whole catching the bus to the club was an absolute vibe from cafe mambo. Will never forget it 🥰🥰😍🥰🥰🥰
the best club! my fav.
Tuesday will be mad
Love it! Can’t wait to experience it for the first time this year on April 28!
Never liked coming out of a club to daylight at 6am. Always a crappy feeling knowing the night was over and wondering where the last 8-9 hours went!
Haha, it shut at 5 this weekend but all restrictions are now lifted as of next week so good sign for next summer
Great memorys of seeing Eddie Halliwell 2008 at Cream.
Sven Vath 2010 at Cocoon.
Clockwork orange 2019 was a belter of a night met paul oakenfold at the bar next to the dj booth in the main room 👏👏👏
Yeah madness that day
Some great memories of seeing Cream @ Amnesia and Armada @ Amnesia. I first went there in 2010, then 2011, 2013 and 2016.
Yeah Armada was my first time in Amnesia, Armin, Schulz and Roger Sanchez in the terrace
I’ve had some unforgettable nights in Amnesia (no pun intended!)..
I’ve been a few times in the early 2000s. Looked a bit different back then. I’m sure I recall an outside bit?
Haven’t been to Ibiza in 15yrs but that’s changing next year. Bunch of us school mates going for our ‘45 and still alive’ celebration 😆
Been there on Friday for the He She They closing party and wohooo, it was bouncin!
Heard mixed things
Been here for a few parties but the best will always be Cocoon opening in 2012. Had never heard of Villalobos before that night, and he absolutely blew my mind. Best club in the world, got it tattooed on me!
haha magic
Love this mate, first time I ever went was 1998 for Cream on the Thursday, never used to like the Terrace or at least don't think I ever tried it properly until mid 2000's as was always in the main room, but since been back for Cocoon and then Locodice's night a few years back and the Terrace is incredible. Did you ever go when the DJ box was in the middle of the room in The Terrace?
Ran into Puff Daddy one year in the VIP as well when I worked over there haha
Went to music on once for it in the crowd by the loos
My first year will be 2022 heading to Ibiza for the first time for my 40th and I can't wait.
Awesome see you there if you need any help with booking anything keep me in mind
Thank you so much for your Ibiza club tours. First went here in 2003 to see Tiesto. Been my favourite club in the world ever since. It’s tragic that Cream is no longer running in Ibiza. My happiest place is on the Main room dance floor as the bass kicks in and the smoke cannon fires. Magical!
Thanks for sharing
Same!! 2003! My friend and I won a trip through Mtv for Tiesto's In Search of Sunrise 3. We got to hang out in the booth with Tiesto and hung out in the VIP with Paul Van Dyk while Tiesto's manager got us hammered on vodka Redbulls. Lol It was around the time of the closing party that year.
top merci pour la video
Thanks
First visit was Cream: Radio One Essential Mix Live. August 9th 1997. I've still got the flyer in a frame!!
Great place. Back for Opening Party 2022. 17 hours 7pm to 12 noon!
Ideal
i was there in 2000 where MTV makes some Events. The DJ back then was Roger Sanchez. But i remember, we don‘t like it so much. Another Night was Cocoon with Sven Väth… that was a good Techno Night.
Wow that brings back some memories. My first time was God's Kitchen Closing Party, Tuesday 18 Sept 2001. Have been back a few times since but the first was the best.
Magic, thanks for commenting
hi Dwayne watch alot your videos , from Dublin. Great to see Amnesia like that.. hopefully its back next summer. Been there twice , Cream main room 10th july 2008 Eddie Halliwell Ferry Corsten Above and Beyond Adam Sheridan , Eddies set was rediculas, and more recently ClockWorks 2019 Seb Fontaine and Taul Paul were class..
But Cream Amnesia Main room is definition of Real Ibiza
I hope so too, yes Cream Amnesia was always the one for me! miss it but I guess life goes on
@@DwayneMuffin do you think clubs will open like pre covid this year, and if so do you predict a hike in superxlub prices to regain losses of last 2 seasons in ibiza
Amazing club seen rudimental there four years ago loved Eden a few weeks ago for Roger sanchez when I was in Ibiza 👍
I made a vlog with him last week, check it out
I went to Ibiza for the first time at the very end of June 2010 with my girlfriend, now wife, for 2 weeks. We went to Amnesia 3 times over the 2 weeks. The first time I went was the Armada night with Gareth Emery June 29th. I then went the following week to see Armin as he was not playing the week before. The best night I had though was the anjunabeats taking over cream for the night, with Above and Beyond on July 1st, the club was absolutely bouncing 🙌 such an awesome, iconic club!
It sure is and I think I'd have been at both of those events
Eddie Halliwell @ Cream Amnesia 2009 absolutely off the scale
It was indeed
1989. Best time in my life
Aly n fila n Bryan Kearney in here were a thing of beauty
Always
First time was 1994 in Ibiza....I've been here many year's
I was 4, feel old yet? 😅
@@DwayneMuffin I was then 23, now 50 :)
What an awesome venue - legendary 🔥
Sure is mate
Really don't like the position of the booth in the main room now. Much preferred it up high with the equaliser on the front.
Any idea why they moved it?
Will cream ever come back?
Most of the clubs brought there booths into the crowd, eden has also for more interaction I guess but not sure
Never been, Always reminds of Kevin and Perry, look forward to watching this, hope your safe and well Dwayne!
Wow the drone material is unreal, must be fpv?
Yup! Hand made on a racing drone
Amnesia 2000 la Troya Dj Oliver playing Music is the answer Danny Tenaglia absolutely brilliant night for two straight guys lol 😂
Danny is a legend, la Troy was an experience in its self wasn't it
2016 The year space closed was also my first time at amnesia. Went for Music On was Matthias Tanzmann and Carola on the terrace with Hectour Couto, Neverdogs and Joey Daniel in the main room. Ridiculous. Never forget that night
Yeah it went off last weekend
Used to be there every Friday for Music On with Don Marco Carolione
Legend
I was at Amnesia in 09/2019. It was the Elrow party. Had an amazing time and can’t wait to come back.
Gutted I didn’t know Amnesia had another room 🙈🙃 I’ll be in it soon 😀
I love the Kevin and Perry movie, it was one of my motivating factors in wanting to go to Amnesia. Can’t wait to go to the Kevin and Perry party in September 😍🥳🥳
Maybe I’ll see you there 👍
Nice one
First experience was 2012, loved Amnesia and went each time after, I can’t recall when the law changed but I think it was the last year Amnesia allowed for late finishes, we left around 9.30/10am Music On in 2015 or 16, loved the place but gutted when they capped the times clubs could open until.
Amazing thanks for sharing
I was there in 2000, but it is one of those nights where memory is quite fuzzy. I remember going home with some dude without realising he was gay and fancied me before he tried to kiss me. I just got my first (and only) tattoo earlier that day and kept flashing it to him, so I can see how he got the wrong idea. 🙈
The terrace room looks like a full KV-2 system installed. Would be awesome to have interviews with the different sound engineers who maintain the sound systems in the different Ibizan clubs who can show off the floor plans of the speakers, how they were positioned, why certain speakers were chosen over others, how the amp rack is assembled and DSPs etc for time aligning the sound in the massive rooms.
I worked on this 3 years ago, most of the clubs weren't keen as some have awful sound
@@DwayneMuffin If you come to Sydney Australia, then let me know and we can do all these awesome technical interviews with club owners.
@@djrobtech I'll try do it this year, my friend is one of the best sound tech guys and put the idea to me, Hi and Ushuaia is probably the most advance but Eden is worth a review as their system is brand new
@@DwayneMuffin This is great man! I hope one day when I go to Ibiza to meet Pepe from Es Paradis. Yeah it's always interesting in how these big superclubs in the world configure and run their entire sound and lighting systems.
Is any drees code in amnesia??
No sports tops or flip flops
2013 1st time
Went there 2002 and 2005 🇬🇧 the dj box was in a different place then
2010 + 2011 + 2012 + 2022
First time Amnesia was 2012 for me… Marco Carola… spectacular club… I like Elrow, Hyte… You didn’t show the rooftop bar…
Wicked, Miss Cream me
1999 was my first visit. I’ve cannon knocked me sideways literally. Didn’t what the fook had happened. 😂
Haha i know the feeling
June 2001
First time in amnesia 2003 I think for latroya
Class what a night that was
2012
Fuckin Sick That Lad! This sounds a bit mad I know , but amnesia has played a massive part in my spiritual journey over the last 20 years . Iv been past there a few times but never gone in , just kept getting sidetracked 🙄 . Iv just finished building a Ford Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth this year, my plan is to bring it to Ibiza for a photo shoot around the island, and outside amnesia is the first stop ! That’s my plan anyway . Great video thanks mate 👍☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️👍
Magic hope you make it
Shame they dropped the main room DJ booth down, doesn't seem right now.
First and only time 2002🤷♂️
💊
1996
It’s a horrendous place compared to the beautiful open air mid to late 80s when there was only about 50 of us English and we would get in for nish 🎼
Is there still Cream Amnesia on Thursdays ???
no it finished a few years ago
@@DwayneMuffin yes mate i have seen its in a new club called (HI) now. im going back after 10 years, but really wanna go to Amnesia, do u no if they have a trance night on there tho?? Much appreciated for relying pal
2004, tiesto and van dyk back to back, pretty sure tiesto had just released his album “just be”. How cream Ibiza is not a thing anymore is a crime
Awesome thanks for watching and sharing my man
97 was my first time. Paul oakenfold, guy ornadel and Alastair whitehead.
Most people on here will be “who?”.
Every year since.
Cream 98. Oakie oakie oakie
Legend
Back in the year 2000! simply Incredible!!!!!! So was SPACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Privilege, EDEN , Pacha, & Es Paradis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALL were great! P.S. let's not forget the BLUE ROSE & Pink Pussy Motel!!!!!!!!!
I heard about the pink pussy would love to have experienced it
Anyone else remember the dj being up high and the big graphic equaliser. Cream and the foam parties were awesome. 98-2008. Loved Amnesia!!
Yea he was wrong about where the “real” dj was on Kevin and Perry. it was the same place but it was on the same level as where Kevin and Perry was above the big graphic equaliser. Seems there is some scaffold rig there now for lighting. The big steam cannon was across the room from the dj just below the VIP lounge.
Yes, I do mate. That would’ve been around 1999. I used to go to the nights cocoon there.
Amazing vlog, so many memories here! My first night was Cream on a Thursday in 2010, i felt like i was in Kevin n Perry! Does anybody know why they changed the DJ box in the main room? It used to be higher up
Best club ever, been going here for many years! Pyramid Sundays are 🔥🔥🔥
Ι had goosebumps mate...loved the progressive trance sound you chose for the video.
Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it
First time at Amnesia was 2017 watching Marco Carola. The place was packed. Huge drop and the place erupted. Best feeling ever.
Went back in 2019 watching Eats Everything all night long. Absolute banger of a night. My ears were ringing for 3 days after. Can’t wait to get back in 2022…..even though I’m 43.
Eats everything all night long in there corr. Not for the faint hearted 😂
Hahaha I was there
I was there too at music on in 2017! I went back the following night for elrow it was that good! Im finally going back this year. Cant wait!
2000 and returning this year for Kevin and Perry reunion in September.
Omg can't wait. Thanks Dwayne got the goosebumps now too.
Absolutely savage man!!! Staggering here 😂😂😂😂 JOC, PVD and prydz were my memories.
Glad you liked it
For me the greatest club I’ve been too, it had everything from the dark main room and the surreal terrace, some amazing nights there that date back to my first visit in 1998 through to 2005, I was even there when Kevin & Perry was filmed, to be honest I didn’t have a clue what was going on but they filmed between Guy Ornadel & Seb Fontaine’s set at Cream, Harry Enfield was asking the crowd to boo and cheer at various points! Other highlights are Tiesto in 2004, the best tech trance set I’ve ever heard and Cocoon where Sven Vath has tore the main room down many times, particularly remember a Marco Carola Cocoon night that flashed past in about 10 mins it was so good!
Awesome thanks for sharing Brett
as a fellow trance head warms my heart to see you smile when talking about the cream nights in amneisa they were fucking banging, can hear the passion in your voice when talking about it trance is magical i hear you brother shame trance has taken a step back in ibiza why do you think that is? its still very much pumping in the UK
Yeah, it was special this, cream was my fav
I went to the Together event in 2014 with Skrillex and others playing. Didn’t expect how big and intense the place was until I walked in for the first time. Amazing evening
My first time was Armada night back in the first week of August 2004. Absolutely amazing night.
wow love the drone bits amazing never been to this club
2010 2011 2012 2022
If walls could talk imagine the stories ....... 💚
Been there twice, 2000 and then 2001. Both times was for Cream, PvD was Djing at least for one of the nights I remember. I have some amazing memories of the place, but it's really hard to put my memories against how the club looks in your video. Nightclubs always look _very_ different empty in the daytime! I could have sworn the DJ booth in the main room was higher than it looks here, and I seem to remember the terrace had some trees in it?? But really cool to see it like this, great video!
I fuckin love that club!!!
Thursdays @ Cream..
Memories!!
Nice one!!
2009 Cocoon my first Amnesia since 2009 I love Ibiza forever! Best place in the world! Great video! Thanks! Keep it real! Have fun! I hope I see you in 2022!
Thanks will do ❤️
i was @ Amnesia in 1998 for the first Time.
It was my 20. Birthday & we came in a black Ferrari than having champagne up the V.I.P Lounge…
It was one of the best experiences in my hole life i will never forget ❤
Thanks for the great video! For the first time I see a club without people and during the day. So many memories of this club! Favorite party Music On! It was just great!🙌🙌🙌💆💆💆
My absolute favourite club!!!! First time I was 17 in 2005. Cream on Thursday nights. My life changed forever that very night. There hasn’t been a year since where I haven’t set foot in that club. (Minus the pandemic obvs). Thanks for the memories Amnesia. (When you think about it, that last sentence shouldn’t make sense 😂)
Mine too!
Went in 97 and saw Oakie and Dave Ralph DJ in the main room. I remember the massive JBL horns and the light coming up in the courtyard. The sound system for a JBL rigg (Junk but loud) was actually one of the best on the Island. Amazing club.
Loks so small without people. I thought it's bigger.
Cocoon from 2001 until around 2012. Every year without fail. Old fart now
1996 here ... one strange memory for me n my mates, one of the dancers / acrobats fell off the structures attached to the roof and landed on the floor... awful accident. Anyone else remember that event, was July 1996... Durham UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
We are going in 5wks: for ELROW closing: can’t wait LFG🔥🔥🔥
